My name is Gabriel Holgado, I'm from Argentina and I am 25 years. I love learning new things, and I think traveling is one of the best ways to do so. I am passionate about nature, for that reason I chose geology as my profession. New Zealand offers many of the best natural scenery in the world, that is why I decided to visit this wonderful country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing because when I visit a country I like to know from the inside, interacting directly with people. In addition, when it is an English-speaking country, it is a good opportunity to improve my level of English.
