CURRENT MISSION

Travelling the World - One Continent at a Time.

ABOUT ME

Hello everyone! My name is Gabriel Lai. I'm a 3rd year University student doing my exchange in Vienna, Austria. My home University is in Adelaide, Australia.

I grew up in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Because of growing up in a multi-racial country, I speak 7 languages fluently.

I love to meet new people, the oldest traveller I met while on the road was an 84 year old American lady - with her own laptop and iPod!
I also like to exchange life stories with people I meet. Listening to different peoples' stories plays an important role in my life, especially in this direction-searching age of 20 years old. Also, I love to share music with people, so if you are a music lover as well, we can trade music. :-)

Oh and also, I can give you movies in return for your wonderful hosting!

PHILOSOPHY

The world is so huge, why would you wanna spend your entire life at the same place?

教，学，和分享

One thing I really wanna learn is Languages. Although I speak 7 languages fluently, I can say that only 3 of them are really really useful in the world. Someday I would love to learn all the major languages in the world. Besides languages that use the latin alphabet, I really wanna learn Arabic.
