About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See, Learn, Teach

ABOUT ME

Originally from Israel, I moved to the US and found a wonderful girl.
I love traveling, meeting new people, hearing interesting stories and different points of view as well as seeing new places and the best of what nature has to offer.

This earth has too many wonderful places to see for us to be sitting at home all day and working our entire lives.

Some say I take a lot of vacations from working. I think I take breaks between my travels so I can work and finance my next trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since i've always lived with roomates, I haven't been able yet to offer a couch to someone, but I have met some cool people through couchsurfing and I can't wait until I have my own place and be able to offer a place for travelers from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have stayed with several hosts during my trip up the US west coast, and was amazed of how generous people are, how open and welcoming one can be to a stranger.
This gives me much hope for our generation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed to the summit of a 5700m mountain in peru. It was a difficult 7 hours walk in the snow at night, but worth every second and one of things I will remember forever.

Teach, Learn, Share

sailing, windsurfing, kitesurfing (well, I guess any sport that combines water and wind). I have been sailing for over 20 years, 5 of them in Israel's national team.

I love teaching and getting people excited about sports that I also enjoy myself.
I also enjoy describing different places i've traveled to, and help people make decisions on where to go.
