Introducing - Laura Ouellette

Hello Friends! Let me introduce myself, I’m Laura and I am a writer here at NBPT.LIFE. A little about me, I am a native of the Northshore and until recently I was living in Newburyport with my husband in a tiny little apartment downtown. Now you can find us in Ipswich smack dab in the middle of suburbia where we bought our first house. Our move was inevitable but the fact that our precious baby girl arrived in August really gave us that extra push (no pun intended) to get going and settle into a bigger place.  It's been a busy couple of months with our newfound roles as parents but I have to say, I think we've found our calling.

I have lots of passions that include – travel, cooking, entertaining, interior design and fashion. You can pretty much count on me talking about all of those subjects given the chance. Especially travel, I’ll really chat you up about the places I’ve been. I’m a steak & potatoes girl and my favorite drink is a Gin & Tonic but a close second is a Colaweisen which is Hefeweizen beer mixed with Coke don’t knock it till you try it. If I had to pick between a piece of chocolate cake or a bowl of salty chips, I’d pick the chips every time. The best gift I’ve ever been given was a world map from my husband on our wedding day. I’ve never met anyone famous but I did see a Lifetime movie actress once on the streets of New York City and my best friend and I followed her around for a while which wasn't creepy at all. My favorite season is autumn and favorite holiday is Thanksgiving - which we are hosting for the first time this year, wish me luck! 

For the last few years I've been working on my personal blogs and doing freelance writing for local businesses. Here at NBPT.LIFE, I've been given the outlet to create content on the topics I love. I know this city and I love the community and I'm so excited to share my experiences with you. Thanks for reading!
