Hi, I'm Laurie!

I grew up in France near Lyon, and moved to Annecy in the French Alps for university. I had the chance to live in London (UK), Reykjavik (Iceland) and in a few places across Canada: Banff, Canmore (Alberta), Ottawa (Ontario), Rossland, Kamloops, Cranbrook, and lastly, the beautiful Nelson, British Columbia.

I am now about to embark on a year-long workation (working and travelling) in Central and South America. Starting in Mexico (October '23), and hoping to spend the winter (July-Sept) at a ski resort in Chile, visiting many places in between.

I love travelling, discovering new cultures and get to know people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and meet people!

Interests

I enjoy spending time in the outdoors! You can usually find me snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, or doing any other fun sports! I am also interested in arts and culture. I prefer in-depth conversations over superficial ones.
