Cannot install Laravel: Stuck at "vagrant up"

I am fairly new to the command line and the computer I am using (Mac OSX 10.9.4)

I was following this installation religiously but still am getting really stuck when I hit the vagrant up command

Here is my error:

and here is my Homestead.yaml file:

      to: /home/vagrant/Sites

sites:
    - map: laravel.dev
      to: /home/vagrant/Sites/laravel-basics/public

variables:
    - key: APP_ENV
      value: local

Could someone please tell me what I am missing?

Hey guys, I didn't properly add my SSH key... I did so by going to the link down below in the teachers notes (as recommended in the tutorial itself actually)

Here: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Followed that exactly step by step

AND all my worries were resolved
