Hey :) Nice to meet ya, I'm Gabe, I live in Boston and am a dual German/American citizen looking to travel a LOT over these next few years. I'm based in Boston, MA, but looking for a new home somewhere else. I speak English, some German, and a little bit of Arabic (formal).

Some things I've done/doing
-When I was younger I taught myself how to buy and sell antiques and mostly specialized in 17th/18th century ceramics, glass, and metalware. I also picked up quite a bit of random knowledge about other stuff too.
-I volunteered at a nature preserve and lead summer camp programs about tidepools and salt marsh ecology
-I co-founded and ran a product design/development agency for two years, and it failed, but I learned a lot :)
-I'm trying to read a lot of philosophy, poetry, and history over the next few years and I'd love to chat about that if you are interested
-I studied business and entrepreneurship and I can maybe give you some advice if you are working on something

I'm an easygoing guy, I'd love to hear your stories/dreams, laugh, and try something new.

It's really amazing for people to open up their homes to strangers and I'm grateful for anyone who would allow me to stay in their space :)

I'm vegetarian when I cook on my own, but if you eat meat, then I will share a meal with you :)

I'm new to couchsurfing and really looking to explore the world for these next few years, and I would be honored to be part of your journey :)
