I‘m on a sabbatical travelling this year. After spending most of the summer living outdoors and in my van in the norwegian and swedish wilderness I‘m now checking out Israel!
Usually I work as a self-employed biologist and wildernes educator. I‘m also involved with the permaculture movement and I want to help make a change for our earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to get in touch with locals and culture, rather than being isolated in my own bubble. It’s the best way to travel honestly.
I’m not interested in being hosted by straight men who only host women and I‘m not interested being flirted at by men, THANK YOU!

Interests

I love everything outdoor related and have done some extensive through-hikes and trekking projects, mostly in scandinavia, but also climbed Kilimanjaro. I love skiing and bouldering and being in the alps. My last project was a longer desert tour on the Israel National Trail.
I also enjoy a beer or two! And I love a night out, but mostly in the queer community. Interested in local culture and community.
