Hey!
I'm Claire, I'm originally from Australia but for the last 5 years I've been travelling about. Excited to be in Sweden.
I'm a pretty laid back but fun person, willing to give anything new a go.
I love experiencing new things whether that be Bunjee Jumping in Vancouver Island to Camping across America to hiking the FrenchPyrenees.
I have met some awesome people along the way and am hoping to meet many more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm travelling the world, here to meet and make good friends everywhere. Get the local knowledge. Tell me where the hidden gems are and where to go next and what better than a local guide.
