HI,
My name is Gabriel and I am from Brazil, although moved to Northern Ireland (UK) when I was 11 and have been a resident there since. I am currently doing my Master's degree in Engineering and spending the semester in Germany as part of the Erasmus exchange scheme.

I am fluent in Portuguese and English, and I am learning German and Russian.

Always up for exploring new places to photograph and new roads to travel. I am a huge motorsport and nature fan and prefer to explore the lesser known areas of the countries I visit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My girlfriend introduced me to Couchsurfing and we are back from our first trip away and stayed with several different hosts. The experience was next to none and we got to do so many new and interesting things as well as exploring parts of the cities that we would otherwise never have seen if not for the local knowledge guiding us.

I plan on continuing this experience and meet several new people around the world to share experiences with.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy all kinds of music from Punk Rock to classical. I am always open to new sounds and flavors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me and 3 of my best friends did a whole West Coast trip of American in two Mustangs. An unforgettable trip and I have my next EU trip planned with my own car once I finish my studies.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very clued into technology (engineering student) and as aforementioned cars and racing. I also love photography ( my father is a professional photographer in London) and love Art too. I have many experiences from around the world and stories that I would love to share with like-minded people.
