Hey all !
I'm Gabriel Chun, 20, born and raised in São Paulo. My asian features are originally from a Korean background, I'm short (people usually think I'm 3 years younger than I actually am) and I've got lots of beard as you can clearly see in my pictures rsrs... hahaha !
I travel with eager and an open mind so I can get to know myself better, make strong connections with people around the world and explore what the other cultures have to offer me. I'm open to meeting people and hearing their stories, practicing languages and having new insights in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on this Couchsurfing journey with the final goal of getting to know me better and the world better, and it would be so pleasing to me if you could take part of my story and I could take of yours. Getting to sleep at a stranger's house and make small talks with this person that I might soon call my friend is the most valuable experience I can have!
