Hey! Ciao :)

I'm Gabriele, a 34-year-old Italian guy, and I Love discovering new cultures and creating memories.
I hold a degree in Industrial Biotechnology and, since then, I have always worked in the healthcare/clinical research field, an environment that has continuously motivated me and allowed me to grow and learn year after year.
However, a part of me has long wished to step away from the “hamster wheel,” which began to feel as though it was being lived on autopilot.
At this stage of my life, I am seeking something more authentic: a slower-paced lifestyle filled with encounters, experiences, and learning. I started living life appreciating every single moment and I am willing to learn everything life can teach me.

Always remember to take care of your soul.
Be well,
Gabri

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy people who love to laugh, humble, who like to sharing stories.
People who like just chilling out, or just able to rethink something that they have thought for a long time and change their mind (and world)
People i fell i can learn from and feel i can teach something in return.

That's some of the reasons why i'm here.
For keeping my eyes wide opened.
