Hey there! I'm Gabriel, I have a brother and a sister and I study Physics at Bayreuth University. I grew up in Bruckmühl, Bavaria, Germany which is near the Alps and this is why I do a lot of hiking and mountain Biking there. Apart from that I play handball, soccer and beach volleyball. In General, I like nature (physics comes from the Greek word hē physikē, which means research on nature) and doing sports. Apart from that, I think one can always find a Topic about which you can talk with me, as I would describe myself as generally interested and also somebody who you can talk with.
Last but not least, I may say sorry for my English, which obviously isn't the best, but until now, it was always enough for communicating :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Of course, I like to travel. But especially I like to travel and learn things about real circumstances in the destination country and not just be in a hotel or a hostel. Furthermore I like to exchange knowledge about the particular cultures. So I like to know things about other cultures, but also tell people things about the Bavarian culture and show them the Alps.
Furthermore, I'm a student and this is why a I don't earn a lot of money and so it's a financial help for me.
