About Me

Hi! I am Gaja, and I come from Slovenia. This year I am finishing high school, and I decided to take a gap year before going to study computer science. I absolutely love traveling, and my wish for this year is to really travel as much as possible. I am planning to go to different Erasmus+ projects, volunteer in groups around Europe, travel with friends and family or go on solo trips, walk the Camino de Santiago, and so on. While traveling, I would love to meet people from around the world, get to know their culture, and share my travel stories with them, and I believe this app is perfect for that.
