Hi :)

I'm Lauren, a Chicago native who transplanted to Indianapolis in 2013 to study at Butler University (Go Dawgs). I'm graduating in 2017 with a degree in English-Creative Writing and planning some extensive travel after graduation in May. I also work at a small marketing firm in downtown Indianapolis as well as the local hostel. In my free time I love to read and am usually sitting in one of Indy's local coffee shops with my laptop and whatever book I'm reading. Most importantly, I LOVE good food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
