About Me

Hey if you don’t already know I am Lara, I am a very active, adventures and chatty girl. I try to always stay busy and make the most out of my days. Even tho I like to organize my days, I love spontaneous changes. If it is something fun, it spices up the day and brings in energy which helps me to get through a regular school/work week. And if plans change in a challenging direction, I am up for the challenge and ready to find a quick and fun solution. But all of the fun activities can get exhausting. So in those situations I love good and long conversations or a movie to escape reality.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like the couchsurfing community consists of many people with the same interest. We all like traveling, meeting new people, experiencing new cultures, being adventures and many more thinks. We all realize that traveling and learning something about new cultures is more than just sightseeing and a luxurious hotel. It is more about getting to know the area and country, going to places where it not likely to meet other tourists instead they will give you the chance to interact with locals. To find out different and deeper information about the places you visited and people you met. Because of couchsurfing, I always come home with a stronger connection, relationships, memories and emotions towards the people and the country.

Music, Movies, and Books

I prefer movies or books which are based on real stories mostly about traveling. I find most of them very inspiring and I admire people who pursuit their dreams by accomplishing thinks that seem impossible. I love reading, once I start it is hard for me to stop. I like novels the most. Those give me the chance to dive right into their story and give me a good impression of their live. I don’t have a favorite movie genre it always depends on the situation if I need a real girl movie a hardcore action movie or a classic movie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Sometime a simple generous "Thank You" from the bottom of your heart is enough if you are willing to pay it foreward.
And if you ever need a warm calm place to browse in the internet,print stuff or simply just read try the public libary. So you don't have to spent money, you are more likely to get in contact with locals and you won't feel as much like a stranger anymore.
I am more than happy to hear and learn about all the interesting facts, tricks,places I should visit,... So hit me up if you want to share something ;)
There is always room to learn and experience more.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The most simple thing would be a smile and a good laugh ;)
Other than that I love to cook and bake. Trying new ingredience getting real creative with the recepiece and cooking methods. You can cook rice on the barbeque trust me ;)
So how about dinner waiting for you when you come home from work or even better having a fun cooking session together to spend time with each other and who knows maybe we will end up writing a bestselling cook book together!
