Hi! I'm Gaby. I studied law but realized only after 4 years that it didn't really suit me. I started making websites and got into IT. But before I knew it my life was looking the same every day. So I quit my job and now I'm looking to inspire myself with new surroundings.

I'm kind, curious and open-minded. I'm quiet and tidy and I have good manners (if you don't take my word for it, you can ask my mom*).

*which is also why I can't offer you my place right now. I've been staying with my mom for the past six months!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Earlier this year I took on a little project where I stayed at a different place every night for a month. These were all people I knew or acquaintances of acquintances. It was a lovely experience where I got to learn so many new sides of various people.

I would love to do the same thing again but now with complete strangers! Will you be part of my project?
