About Me

I am a curious person, and I get my energy from discovering new places and new things.

I am a big believer in positivity, because:
- The eyes see what the brain wants to see
- Your body follows your mind (and vice versa)
- A positive attitude is contageous

What I love to do:

Solving problems (puzzles, riddles, but also business problems).
Learning (about just about anything).
Sports, especially football. I also was a football referee for 8 years.

I love good food. "Good food, good mood".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hotels and hostels are always the same. I want something different.
Had some great experiences with CS in Jordan and Israel, so I'm hooked :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love tropical music, and music that makes you move. I usually appreciate talent and am not bound by a genre.

Movies: usually the ones with an intriguing plot (Usual Suspects, Shutter Island, Inception, etc.). Big Harry Potter fan as well.

Books: mainly reading self-improvement books (Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, Drive, The Peronal MBA, Deep Work, etc.).

Love TED talks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being picked up by a golf cart while hitchhiking in Israel and driving it on the shoulder of the highway, from Haifa to Rosh Hanikra.

Teach, Learn, Share

Topics I love to discuss:
- Personal development
- Minimalism
- High-tech and innovation
- Entrepreneurship and startups

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to learn from you through in-depth discussions about self-improvement, entrepreneurship and business. I can give tips about books to read and inspiring movies to watch.

I can share great horror stories from my time as a referee.

And if you ever wondered why the sky is blue, I love explaining these kind of things. But only if you're interested :)
