My name is Eilam Dobes, and I live in Kibbutz Mishmar Ha'Emek, which is located in the north of Isrel [20 minutes from Haifa]. For the past two years, since I finished my duty to the IDF, I have been working in edcuation of teenagers.
When I am not working I enjoy playing basketball and Volleyball, watching movies and reading.
And, of course, I would like meeting interesting people from all around the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a curious man in my nature, and I am very interested in what is happening around the world [Politics, Sport and whatever...]. I thought that the best way to learn about other countries is from the people who live there... simple as that.

Interests

As I mentioned, I like playing Basketball and Volleyball, watching movies [good ones...] and reading [philosophy, history and of course fiction]. I also hang up with my friends, eating good food and drinking good alcohol.
