Hey there!
Welcome to Sara Laughed
I’m Sara, an American writer living in the Netherlands. This blog began as a creative writing outlet ten years ago, when I was but a wee high school graduate looking for an adventure abroad. Well, I found it! In the years since, I've gotten married, moved to the Netherlands, self-published a number of creative journaling devotionals, and been lucky enough to grow an audience of fellow creatives here at Sara Laughed. I use this space to share stories about my life and lessons I learn in my faith and work.
