His favorite animal is a capybara because he thinks they are adorable and funny, and he loves how calm they are.
Swimming! Gabriel loves being in the water and the freedom it gives him. Because of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, swimming is one of the activities that feels easiest and most comfortable for him. He dreams of one day swimming with dolphins and turtles and exploring the ocean.
