We left our country because of the situation today. We are not on either side, we don't want war and support equal human rights for everyone.

We study art and filmmaking. Feel free to talk to us about your favourite painters and films!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I've done among many: I went to Korea to visit a friend that I met in Jerusalem. And she introduced me to her friend who had defected from North Korea. She shared with me her experience of growing up there and how she fled. The story really touched my heart and opened my mind to understand different people from completely different places, and how we could still connect as human beings.

Yuda grew up in an ultra orthodox jewish family and neighborhood. He left the religion when he was 21 years old. It was a big change and still working to unlearn many things, as well as learning what he was blind to

Teach, Learn, Share

We love to learn everything!
For sharing and teaching, anything ART! I also love to cook for people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook, and would love to cook for anyone to share the love :)
Since I study art, I can also teach to paint or draw. I also love doing portraits of people if they like.

We can also talk about politics, what is going on right now in my country.
Avital grew up in pretty right-wing neighborhood, but in the last few years, made the change in my lives to believe otherwise. Feel free to ask us about it!
