Welcome

Hiya, I’m Claire!

After being laid off from my corporate job in NYC, I packed up my bags and moved to Berlin in 2019. Tall Girl Big World is where I share my adventures
in Berlin and beyond. You’ll find detailed guides on my favorite European cities as well as my top tips and resources for living abroad.
