I'm Laura, french girl living the dream of working for an airline. I love adventure. Passionate about aviation, french books, gin&tonic and countries no one's ever heard of.

I backpack as much as I can, sometimes with friends, sometimes on my own. Love meeting new people and getting insider's views on places I travel to :)

PHILOSOPHY

Always talk to strangers

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people during my trip, whether locals or fellow travelers

Also, I participate to as many events as I can in London, where I live - this is how I've met most of my friends here :)

Unfortunately cannot host anymore, but hope I will have a spare couch again one day as hosting is always a great experience!
