About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make new friends, and consume as much culture as I can.

ABOUT ME

I try to travel once a year from Israel. I always decide where and when to travel according to shows and concert I'd like to see.

I love music, theatre, cinema and arts in general.

I consider myself very friendly, and would likely get along with anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends, through hosting and being a guest. To show my beloved city through my eyes, and to see other city through local eyes as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of different music genres. I like rock, pop and jazz, and once or twice a year I might even go to the opera.

A little bit of name dropping:

Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Paul Simon, Prince, Pixies, Leonard Cohen, Elton John, Madonna, David Bowie, Suede, The Beatles, Rolling Stones and countless others.

I love cinema as well.

For example: Inside Out, Pan's Labyrinth, The Godfather, Indiana Jones, Monty Python, Rocky Horror Picture Show, West Side Story and many more.

Favorite TV Shows: The Sopranos, Mad Men.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I guess the best day of my life was the third time I saw a Bruce Springsteen concert. It may be not so amazing for others - and that's fine, but I've never felt so happy in my entire life.

Also I went to Romania to see the villages that my grandparents grew up in. It was incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I guess my main interest is music. I have a huge amount of knowledge in that area, but I don't play anything.

Also, I'd be more than happy to teach you some Hebrew!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Each couch surfing experience I try and hang with the host as much as I can. I enjoy talking with them, getting to know them, talk about my culture and listen to them talking about theirs.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Romania, Switzerland, United Kingdom
