About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hey! I'm amit, 30 years old and currently living in Tel-aviv.
I was born and raisd in Tel-Aviv and I know the city all around.

I'm a liberal and easy going person and everybody is welcome to crash at my place.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let Live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's like backpacking in your own home town

Interests

I thought I'd liked architecture, but after 5 years in the field (studiying, working and volunteering), I'm not sure it's true anymore.

I used to volunteer with youth coming from impoverished background. I had been helping them getting ready for their final exams in highschool.
As an architecture student, I had been also volunteering in a non-profit organization that promotoed proper planning for the urban spaces in Israel
Recently I'd started volunteering with immigtrant and refugee kids living in the south of Tel-Aviv.

I'm into languages and I speak english, spanish, some arabic, some german some portuguese and of course, hebrew.

I realy like traveling, hiking, mountaineering etc. and whenever I have some free time on my hands I go out for a hike somewhere in israel.

I try to swim as much as I can, as it is a kind of meditation for me.

I like watching good movies while eating junk-food
