About Me

Hello! I’m Claire, a nomad and a full time artist/tattoo artist. I CURRENTLY AM TRAVELING AFRICA!
I have been traveling the world full time for the last four years with no plans of stopping soon.

While in college, I hosted people often. It really open my eyes to what does community could be, while utilizing this community my own travels, I realized how much I enjoy meeting people at Couchsurfing. I’m not really sure when my journey will take me, and hopefully if you’re reading this, we’ll meet up somewhere in the world.

A bit about me:
My degree is in painting and art history. I love to dance, travel, take photos, draw, lift weights, learn about new cultures, and have good conversations. Electronic dance music, afrobeats and hip hop is some of my favorite to listen to, and I frequent music festivals. I stay very busy with so many things that I love. Often dividing my time traveling and working: painting murals, teaching, modeling, tattooing, and really everything in between. I have a passion to teach and share what I care about with others.

I would describe all my daily life as its very own artistic practice. In any art I create any activity I engage in act as forms of active meditation. they encourage my psyche to enter a flow state where everything else melts away.

I’m very passionate about letting my pure heart lead and being present in the moment and really allowing myself to enjoy things… Sometimes, this invokes a kind of spontaneity that some people find shocking, so typically I find myself better suited to be around other like-minded travelers. Life‘s meant to be enjoyed, experiences are meant to flow, and memories and stories should be borderline unbelievable… very big supporter of being around other people who fall in love with life again every single day.

Let’s create some stories (:
