About Me

I live in Tokyo with my girlfriend, Riho. In 2018 when we both traveled in Uzbekistan we met and fell in love.

We are friendly but a little bit shay, very open minded and learning our way to live all the time. We are trying to do only things that make us happy. That's why we travel and do couchsurfing because experience with local people and having travelers to our place greatly enriches our life . We really like to hear the story behind the people, everyone has stories.

Now we'll tell you a little bit of our story (if you want to hear the rest it's only face to face)

I'm Benjamin I grew up in a small village in the northen part of Israel with seven brothers and sisters, I went to high school in the beautiful Golan Heights. I live 4 years at the desert of israel and I've worked in a chicken house farm and then traveled for more than a year until I met Riho.

I'm Riho from Osaka. I stayed in NZ for a year to study English and travel. This experience made me much more eco conscious. I work now in solar energy company as a software engineer and try to live as eco friendly as i can.
