About Me

One of the most valuable experiences in my life was joining a traditional sabbath meal in Jerusalem. I didn't share a language with most of the other guests and I didn't understand the prayers and rituals, but because the Rabbi was so exceptionally welcoming and hospitable, I felt at home nonetheless.
That's why I want to share my home and food with people and try to make them feel welcome at my place.

Obviously, I like to travel and I use couchsurfing and hitchhiking, because I couldn't afford travelling otherwise.
Though, it's even more important to me that these trips challenge me to adapt to unknown situations, to accept all people as they are and let go of the urge for security. I'm not the bravest person and I can't not have a backup plan. But, I hope that each time I travel like this I can let go a bit more and one day feel completely free.

CURRENT MISSION

Learn how to sail.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While travelling in Europe and Israel in 2014 I met a bunch of nice people and I'd like to continue this experience during all of my journeys.
I want to meet all these crazy and awesome people out there and I would like my own home to be a welcoming place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Iceland I helped cows to give birth. It's amazing to see a living being take its first breath.

Hitchiking from Barcelona to Frankfurt.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to hear about your profession or your field of study. There's so much I've never even heard of.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to hear stories and, if you like, tell mine. There's just so much to learn from each other.
Also, I can explain to you the best sport in the world - Quidditch. :D
