Hello! My name is Gabrielle and I'm a current student at Yale University who is planning on majoring in either Architecture or English. Though I currently study in the city (and love every second of it), I grew up in a town of 120 people and now that I've left the small-town life behind me, I'm excited to meet new people, hear their stories, and see the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first heard about Couchsurfing online and then started to look further into it; the more I looked into it, the more I wanted to try it! I love the idea of meeting new, interesting people from across the world and hearing their stories.
