Hi, I'm Laurel!
My day gig is in real estate, and I do freelance photography as well. Winter is my slow season, so I'm getting in some traveling while I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to learn about the cities I visit from people who actually live there! One of my favorite parts of traveling is meeting new people and making connections. Couchsurfing makes those connections much more accessible than a hotel lobby does. My current living situation isn't conducive to hosting, but I look forward to hosting other surfers in the next year or two.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have pretty varied interests, and I'm always willing to learn something new. I went to school for cognitive science, so if you want to talk brains/neuroscience, I'm your girl!
