Descrição

Claire and Dan are a friendly couple from Washington DC, USA, looking to make friends and learn new skills through their travels.

Dan spends his free time cycling around DC, ideally in search of a beer or pizza. He is looking for opportunities to gain skills in building/handiwork, managing a business, and learning about new cuisines.

Claire is an avid gardener, often collecting and trading seeds and plants with friends and neighbors. She enjoys rehabbing furniture, landscaping, crossword puzzles, and art projects. Claire has previous experience as a volunteer farmer as well as with home building and repair. She is interested in learning about sustainable agriculture, bee keeping, and running a small business.

After enduring years of 40 hour work weeks at the office, Claire and Dan are looking for opportunities to branch out and try something new. They especially enjoy spending time near water, mountain hiking (casually - not the crazy big ones), and relaxing outdoors. Both are great with kids and have experience teaching. They have been traveling through Asia, Australasia, and Europe since December 2023.
