There are way too many Lauren's in the world, so everyone just calls me Laa. As in I'm the law! Or as in "a note to follow sew"... :P

I am an old soul with a hippie heart living through my inner child. Was living in Los Angeles for 10 years before leaving two years ago on a bucket list journey, checking items off, including going on a 3 month road trip around the US and Canada, snowboard/ski instructing for a Winter season, and backpacking Europe/UK for 3.5 months, sky-diving, etc!

I am respectful, easy-going, free spirited, vegan, creative, and friendly.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I became a part of the Couchsurfing community for my Euro-trip and was so excited to meet like-minded traveler friends along all my adventures! I was hosted and became friends with so many awesome people and look forward to returning the favor one day when they come visit California!

I'm heading out again on another adventure - a road trip from San Diego to Alaska and am looking for any friends and places to stay along the way. I'll be traveling in my Prius with my two dogs, mostly car camping - so even a campground or driveway to park in and sleep would be awesome!

I'll be leaving SD on June 6th and traveling for about 6 weeks.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Drove over 14,000 miles across the US and Canada last year. Did the Edge Walk on the CN Tower in Toronto, over 16 stories high!
