A bit about me
Hi my name's Clare. I live in Watford in Hertsfordshire and just turned 27, ouch getting closer to 30. Spent my first b'day abroad this year and was lucky enough to see Fujisan on the Shinkansen travelling from Tokyo to Kyoto and then had a fantastic day in Nara the ancient city. A must see for anyone planning a trip to Japan.
Most of my travels have centred round Europe but the idea is to start to travel a bit more further afield. What I really enjoy about travelling is diversity: different cultures, different people, doing and learning different things and even about yourself. It's good to get away from routine which can get quite boring and be a bit more spontaneous...
