Hello! I’m Laurie, from Bristol in England. I'm currently doing an MA at the University of the West of England in Film and TV Industries. I'm about to start working at the London Film Festival and need somewhere to stay in London for several weeks.

I'm looking to make new connections in London as I'll be moving there when I finish my degree in January.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To meet, and learn from people from all different backgrounds, while I move from place to place.

Música, películas y libros

Music is a huge part of my life! It’s tough to list everything, easier to give the broader genres that I explore most.

Indie and alternative rock, trip hop, house music, techno, drum n bass

I DJ drum n bass and house. Liquid dnb is my go-to travelling music

Live music, huge concerts, tiny intimate gigs, checking out DJs - I love it all!

Film + TV
- art house cinema, and independent film. The weirder, the better. French film was a big part of my life at university. Also love comedies: Leslie Nielsen, Jim Carey, Monty Python, Andy Samberg, Office Space etc.

- Amelie, Nikita, Subway, The Witch, Christopher Nolan, Twin Peaks, Mulholland Drive, The Lobster, Donnie Darko, Green Wing, Wes Anderson etc.

Books - anything fiction!
Kazuo Ishiguro
Bill Bryson
The Alchemist

Algo increíble que he hecho

Safari with my parents in Kenya, when I was 7 - it had a huge impact on me both in terms of my love for wildlife and nature, and my passion for travelling.
