!! For me it's not a dating site and I don't seek sex!! I believe it's a perfect website to meet nice people, share travel experience and help one another.

I'm Gabriela. I was born in the southern part of Poland and recently I moved to New Zealand. I love to travel in adventurous and spontaneous way, discover new places, try traditional dishes from all over the world and basically enjoy my life.
Some years ago I spent 6 months living in Indonesia where I studied as an exchange student. It was a really great experience. Surrounded by an incredible beauty of the Indonesian nature I discovered how much I love traveling. During my stay there, following a friend's advice I decided to create my couchsurfing profile.
Coming back to Europe was quite difficult and to be honest I totally didn't expect I would ever miss Asia so much. In summer 2015 I volunteered in Russia and right after finishing my voluntary I crossed Europe by hitchhiking and definitely it was one of the most crazy thing I've ever done in my life, but at the same time it was such a wonderful experience and it taught me to see the kindness and hospitality of people.
Later on I was living for a while in Portugal, Belguim and Spain when I spent more than a year in one of the best places in the world - Granada. I have to admit I fell in love with that city and I consider it my second home. At this stage of my life I decided to move to New Zealand for some time. This is already the 8th country in which I live!

I love traveling. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about their countries and cultures. While visiting new places I try to learn about them as much as possible. I like to spend time outdoors, enjoy beautiful landscapes, watch sunsets, walk in the forest...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's been already few years since I've got my account here. Why? Because I'm keen in to meet interesting people from all around the world, and I want to travel, travel, and travel.. ;)

I really like to travel and enjoy time with friends. I like sport, love animals especially dogs. I try to spend my free time in actively and I'm not that kind of person who would lie on the beach all day long.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing experience was living in Indonesia. I dived there for the first time in my life and I could see amazing underwater world. It was one of the most wonderful view I've ever seen in my eyes!
Crossing Europe by hitchhiking is definitely the second most important experience for me. I realized that everything is possible and we shouldn´t be afraid to follow our dreams.

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak Polish and people say that it's one of the most difficult language so maybe I could teach you a bit of my mother tongue.
I'd like to improve languages I speak. Maybe learn sth new? Ohh, and I want to improve my diving skills too.
