CURRENT MISSION

To get my house clean

ABOUT ME

My name is Laura, I'm 20, and I love to travel. My goal is to find some way to incorporate travel into my entire life. Unfortunately, this is the last box I'm filling out so this is going to be brief and random as I'm tired of typing. I'm usually outgoing if I feel comfortable around the people I'm with. I work at an upper end department store here in Missoula. I'm taking a couple years off after high school. I would love to meet anyone coming to Missoula, MT. I like dogs and being with friends. I currently live with my boyfriend, Nate. My couch can sleep up to 2. My couch is available but don't have reliable internet service so I'm not always on top of checking my email. If you really need to get ahold of me for a place to stay, call my cell phone at (406)546-8656. Also, I like to see that people have read my profile so please put "Tomatoes are red" somewhere in your couch surfing request.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to be happy. I am an atheist, but don't mind someone who is religious as long as they don't try and convert me. I am respectful of people's beliefs. I try to go out of my way to help other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used it to find hosts in Europe when I was there this summer. I'm also looking fowarard to having ppl stay with me. I of course have to check with my boyfriend though too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed with several people this summer and enjoyed it emensly. I'm eager to host, too, although I haven't yet. So email me!

Interests

Traveling, having fun, hanging out with friends, biking, planning finances oddly enough, hiking, swimming, planning vacations, learning foreign languages, watching rented TV. Some more that I'm sure I can't think of right now. Do pay checks and sleeping/dreaming count as interests?

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't watch that much TV... but I have a tendency to rent and watch too much of it once it comes out on DVD. I still like to read, but don't as much anymore. The last book I read was Angles and Demons by Dan Brown. I like most movies except horror and bloody war movies. I've just gotten hooked on "The Cat Empire"'s The Chariot. Check it out, it's a GREAT song. Update: I just finished the last Harry Potter book. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I love the fact that I have been to Europe already. I'm very independent and got in trouble on my school trip for going off on my own for our free day. I love to try and get by in a foreign country just speaking their language. I got my ears pierced on Jersey Island and hope to get my second hole at the same place. Update: I went to Europe this summer with basically no idea where I was going or how long I was going to be there.

Teach, Learn, Share

1. Take lots of pictures to help you remember. It's amazing how fast you forget. 2. Don't go to most museums in Paris on Mondays as parts of them are closed. 3. If you must go on those days, you can sometimes sweet talk the guards into a quick personal tour. ;) I can teach you how to play tennis. I can take you hiking, It's so pretty aroud here.
