Hello.
I am a 20-something female who is planning to go to Los Angeles for two weeks alone to see the sights and dance. Hollywood.
I can barely speak English, but is it dangerous to take buses and trains alone ？
Also, I am thinking of taking an Uber back to my lodgings at night after dancing, is Uber safe?
I would appreciate it if you could tell me what to watch out for.

＃ I am a 20-something female who is planning to go to Los Angeles alone to see the sights and dance.

A woman traveling alone can be spotted by people at the entrance
I hope I can get in safely without suspicion.

Trains, huh? I ride them often, but even as a guy I don't really want to take the Hollywood-bound （ Red Line ）. There are too many strange people.
It's still OK in the morning or evening when there are many commuters, but I wouldn't recommend it for a young woman alone.
Buses are still safer, but it takes a lot of time.
I think Uber is safe, but I'm a guy, so I've never been in a woman's shoes, so I don't know.
However, I used to call my girlfriend when I took her home and never had a problem.
Pepper spray （ or bear spray as we call it in Japan ？ ） I would recommend buying and keeping some for self-defense.
I sometimes saw Japanese tourists, including women, at Red Line or in front of Corona.

！
I didn't know it was that dangerous...
Do you think they sell self defense spray at the supermarkets or something? ？
I'll try to take the train in the morning and the bus.
I will take Uber as much as possible.

Where can I buy the spray, I bought mine from Amazon. I don't think there are any supermarkets. I think it's in stores like Target. Glendale is much better. The population is famous for its Armenian population.
North Hollywood is famous for being a bad place. I have an image that there are a lot of drugs and crime.
Be careful.

Spray, you know, you should buy one with a practice spray.
Practice with it and learn how to use it. Then, when you are in an unsafe environment, take it out of your bag and have it ready to use whenever you need it.
Well, I think you should be cautious and nothing will actually happen to you during your stay. I'm sure you'll make friends soon ？.
