I am Laurie, and I live with my boyfriend and cat in a cozy home in Haarlem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to meet new people from all over the world and get to know the different cultures.

Interests

Cooking and baking, travelling, playing piano, photography. I also love languages. I followed a ten week course in Arabic and Chinese. Besides that I love creating stuff, either designing or diy stuff.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is from Ludovico Einaudi, to play and to listen to. My favorite books are about China, I love to read about the culture and the country.

I spent two months travelling by myself through China and Japan! I've met so many awesome people and saw so many beautiful things during this trip!

I can teach you basic Dutch, I can bake a fantastic applepie (or bake other yummy threats) and share some Dutch culture with you.
