My name is Maria Gabriela, mostly known as Gaby, and I'm 26 years old.
I've always lived in Pilar city, 60 km far from Buenos Aires Capital City (Argentina).
I'm almost the youngest amongst 7 brothers (5 brothers and 2 sisters), some of them already married with kids!
I´ve studied in a bilingual school (spanish-english), graduated at the age of 17, and currently graduated from marketing college.
All my life, I've combined my activities with field hockey. It's been my prefered sport since I was 6 years old, never gave up training since then.
I consider myself a sport person, listing skiing as one of the top 3 sports in my heart. Therefore, I've taken the "work and travel" program to Aspen, Colorado, USA for the 2011-12 winter season.
Once more, I find myself in this 2016-17 winter season in Aspen, Colorado, repeating the "work and travel" program, to experience different adventures amongst a variety of cultures, while skiing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my dreams is to travel the world getting to know different cultures, experiencing life long memories. Rather than staying in the typical hotels/hostels, I would prefer staying with different families, while immerse in different cultures.
