Hi :) I'm Gabriel, I'm half italian/half british and I am currently doing a language exchange in Germany before I start my master's in Berlin later this year. I'm really interested in my studies (urban sociology) and am always happy to meet people who have a passion in their lives, whatever that is!

I had a great time two years ago travelling around different countries with friends, seeing new places and meeting lots of new people. Since then, I've been waiting to do it again but rather than wait until this summer, I thought I could do some couch surfing on my weekend breaks :)
I'm always happy to travel alone or in company, get to know people and have interesting conversations or simply just go out and have fun.

3 x vaccinated too !

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Unfortunately covid keeps on interrupting my grand travel plans but I still want to keep moving and meeting interesting people a bit closer to home.

I'm living in Mannheim, Germany for the next few months and would like to see many cities around Europe as possible. Hopefully I can make a few friends and have some fun along the way:)

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Driving around Russia in mid-winter in a rented car having lost my id, visa and all my money was very cold but very fun
