Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed some couches in my trips to Austria in 2013 and hosted some people at my place in Utrecht. It was a great experience and we kept in touch until today.

Interests

I'm doing a ph.d in a program that combines linguistics and computer science, and these are the subjects I work on mostly and I'm very interested in. The main questions I'm attracted to are how language works cognitively and how humans learn languages.
Except for these subjects, my main hobbit is photography. I'm also interested in music and film.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Jerusalem, which is an amazing city...
In Mexico the police stopped me in the middle of the night because they thought that I'm some sort of criminal that they were after. It was pretty amazing how in 2 seconds the whole area around me was surrounded by policemen. They were very disappointed when they realized that I'm not their guy...
