Hi couchsurfers ! My name is Laurence, I'm 33 born and raised in Los Angeles, and I work in sales for a software company. I also enjoy chess, photography, cycling, horse riding & martial arts ♟️ 🥋 🥊 📸 🐴 🚲

Here’s my YouTube where I make videos about this stuff:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to practice my French and also learn Spanish. I have a nice sized home and don't work weekends (usually) - so meeting new friends would be great! (I travel a lot for work, but as long as I'm in town, I'm happy to host or hang out)
