About Me

Hey, I’m Gal—a passionate lover of art, adventure, and connecting with people. I’ve been fortunate to travel to 44 countries, often on my own, always seeking out new cultures, meeting locals, and immersing myself in their stories. Creativity has been a constant in my life, expressed through painting, sketching, writing poetry, and even exploring hands-on crafts like ceramics, sewing, and gardening. I’m also deeply connected to movement and the body—I practice yoga, enjoy modern dance (Gaga technique), and stay active through various sports. Beaches, especially naturist ones, are where I feel most free, and I’m always drawn to festivals, whether they’re vibrant trance gatherings or intimate live acoustic shows.

I’ve attended festivals like BurningMan multiple times, where I cherish the freedom, community, and connection they inspire. Recently, I moved to Bari, Italy, with my partner, who’s studying medicine, and I’m embracing this new chapter—learning Italian, exploring my surroundings, and building a life filled with new experiences. I’m a filmmaker and artist by profession, having directed several short films and run a creative studio, but what truly excites me is creating meaningful connections, hosting friends in our cozy and welcoming home, and sharing moments that make life richer.

I’m always eager to try new things, whether it’s diving into nature, experimenting with different forms of art, or pushing myself out of my comfort zone. Life, to me, is a series of adventures, and I’d love to meet people who share my passions—or can introduce me to new ones. If you’re open-minded, curious, and looking for someone who loves to explore the world and everything it has to offer, let’s connect.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I celebrated the Crocodile Festival with an ancient tribe in the Andaman Islands—a truly unique experience steeped in tradition and culture.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching sketching and photography, sharing everything I know about art and design. As a designer, I find inspiration in museums and city walks, where each corner offers something new to spark creativity. I studied classical art for six years at an arts-focused high school, followed by a Bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication and a Master’s degree in Film Directing. Over the years, I’ve taken countless courses in illustration and writing, constantly expanding my creative skill set.

Every city I visit leaves me in awe of its museums and the art it holds—I’ve made it a mission to explore as many as possible. I’ve also traveled extensively, hiking through mountains and immersing myself in art and nature. Creating art and connecting with people who share a love for it brings me endless joy. I’m always happy to make, explore, and experience art with others who share this passion.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a storyteller at heart, drawn to sharing days and nights filled with adventure. I love listening to life stories, meeting new people, and embracing every moment with an open heart. I’m fueled by a boundless energy and a hug that can hold everyone, sometimes feeling as though I want to wrap my arms and soul around the world.
