This week is an opposite perspective of Episode 46 where I share our experience with hosting while living in England.  This episode I'm joined by my British friend Claire Westaway to hear her perspective living in the US as a British person. 

It's a fascinating conversation where we both have similar feelings and experiences just in different places.  It's heart warming to hear her thoughts on Americans and her passion for her time living in the US. 

Claire has an amazing photography business here in England and you can find her online here or follow her on Instagram @clairewestawayphotography
