Hello good people. My name is Gabriel and I have been traveling on and off for many years now.
I studied Anthropology at University and I’ve always been one to throw myself into any culture I find myself in. I enjoy raw humanity and love to find myself in the presence of genuine people. My most interesting travel experiences have been my more extended stays in Albania, Bosnia and Germany. I’ve found living in a place for a while is the best way to immerse yourself in its people and customs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
