ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Gabriel.

At the moment I'm living in Casarano, in the very south of Italy.
I finished my studies back in Austria. I'm a special education teacher, but here in Puglia I'm working in a school as a language assistant for german.

PHILOSOPHY

"It hasn't been my day for a couple of years. What's a couple more?"
(Jawbreaker / Accident Prone)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted some people in Vienna, I surfed a couple of times all over Europe.
All experiences have been cool, interesting or fun.
So I'm gonna continue using this way of traveling.

Interests

Music is definitely my biggest passion. For over ten years I'm playing in different bands as a guitarist, singer or drummer.
I'm happy to show you some of my music, if you're interested.

Beside that I'm really into (vegan) cooking, sports (football, running, bicycling)
and I'm interested in politics.

Than we ever learned in school."

(Bruce Springsteen / No Surrender)
