Just a gal with a colorful imagination and an obnoxious mission to make people smile.

My name is Gloria, but people call me "Glo" and I like to think it has a little to do with the positivity and light I try to radiate!

10 days after I finished university, I booked a one-way ticket to Europe. Couchsurfing has always been a huge part of my travels, but now 5 years and 60+ countries later, I travel now mainly for work (I'm a full-time travel writer/photographer).

So now I try to take a few weeks off to explore cities and countries strictly for pleasure and not my Instagram (https://instagram.com/glographics) or blog.

I've been on Couchsurfing since 2012, and though there's no doubt it's definitely changed over the years, I still hope there are people on here who find beauty in the new friendships, cultural exchanges, and expanded perspectives.

Just so you can check that I'm not crazy, my blog is: http://TheBlogAbroad.com.
