About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet beautiful people, make beautiful music, wear funny hats...

ABOUT ME

I am 28 years old and currently living in Seattle doing a Ph.D degree in the university of washington.
I spent most of my childhood in Haifa, which is the most beautiful city in the world (Or so the dutch say).
Before Uni I travelled for almost two years in canada, central america, India, Nepal, Thailad and even spent two weeks in London. No

I play guitar and love making music, and although I performed a few times on stage playing proper songs, what i like the most is just jamming around - making beautiful music with beautiful people.

And yeah, I'm me and all.

PHILOSOPHY

Are you gonna eat that?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to have fun. I take my fun very seriously. Oh, and I've hosted quite a few people while living in Jerusalem.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While travelling in Canada (I actually stayed in Toronto most of the time and worked) I decided I want to see montreal, and i want to do it cheap =).
So i hitch hiked to montreal (took me 9 hours each way) and stayed there with a really nice girl i found through a website called globalfreeloaders.com, which is a bit like couch surfing but not as good... The trip was amazing and every single person i met on the way, hitch hiking, surfing or otherwise was amazing.

And there was one time I stayed with an estonian couple in Madrid which was fun.

And I have hosted about a billion people with my flat mates while living in Jerusalem. Most of whom were AWESOME!

I love going to concerts. I am not familiar of the Seattle concert scene yet, but if you are around and feel like going to see some people playing music I am in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
