About Photo
Hej! Welcome to Katiesaway! Katiesaway is designed to help you get the most out of your travels with curated guides, authentic experiences, and beautiful destinations. In 2020 I made the decision to leave my home in Australia and follow my dreams of moving abroad. I moved to Gothenburg, Sweden, and have spent the last two years exploring our local area, discoverig the magic of the fishing villages and islands on the West Coast, but also travelling around Sweden and Europe. It has been a life changing experience and one I am so grateful for!
