Hello everybody, my name is Gabriel Debia, and I´am 30. I´m from São Paulo, Brazil.

I worked as a journalist and as a copywriter for ten years or so, but music was always my true love. So I decided to change things a little and do the right thing: go for it. =)

In order to get all the knowledge I need to become a pro i decided to focus on my instrument at first, wich is guitar, and I will study both acoustic and aletric blues in Chicago.

I will arrive in january in New York and I would love to stay a little before I hit the road again, and thats exactly where the couch surfing part comes in.

So people from NY, can we talk? =)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Actually I´m selling the home i lived for 30 years (and everything inside it) to see the world, see what happens, and play music.

Teach, Learn, Share

Besides working as a journalist, I always gave music classes ´cause my stepfather was a muician and had a music school. We could learn a song, why not? =)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I´m an easy going person, funny, respectful and happy (a very important thing). I would love to know NY a little, and i can assure I´d be someone kinda nice to hang around. =)
