About Me

I raise (happy) goats and make (tasty) cheese. I work on an educational sustainable farm in a youth village, at the Carmel mountains. I live in a small and quiet kibbutz at the foot of the mountain, by the sea shore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to host many surfers on my couch when I lived in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and had a great time with Luke, Amy, Mario, Mikel, Martin, Vaios, Jose, Kuba, Laurann, Kohei, Nico and Oguz, up to now... Now I live in a small village (a kibbutz) by the beach, not far from Haifa, and not so many tourists come over here.

Interests

I studied anthroplogy and every aspect of human nature and culture excites me, and I am very curious of everything that has to do with language and linguistics.
I adore nature and the outdoors more than anything, and I am a fan of hiking, biking and beaching and would love to join you and show you around Israel and Tel-Aviv.
