About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To discover the world and new cultures while I recover from my 7 year diploma of veterinary medicine.

ABOUT ME

I am a huge fan of culture, people and traveling- which works out perfectly with this project.
I am a nightlife person. Normally I need 2 cups of coffee to get my engine started when I wake up, but once it's going I'm unstoppable. Quite a night owl, and among other things this is why I'm crazy about tel aviv and its rocking nightlife.

PHILOSOPHY

I wake up every day with a smile (well, after I have my coffee). Life is about having fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surf and be surfed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good. Meeting nice hospitable and quite a variety of people.

Interests

Music- From classic and opera to underground techno raves and all that's in between.
Book- Japanese, Spanish, Russian and all the rest. Not a big bestseller list fan but I do read a lot of high quality literature.
Sports- Climbing, hiking, squash, ballet, jogging, swimming and anything you can do in open-air, with other people and preferably away from the gym.
I also like art and architecture. Basically, I'm game for any fun new activity.
