Overview
About Me
Since I left my parents' home village (a Kibbutz), I've been on my own through national service, music academy and a nice, steady career in the field of artistic and musical concerts production. It's been some time now that I have been feeling the urge to change everything, to try new ways of living, experience the world from a different angle. I've resigned my job and started travelling, stayed in a cacao farm in Bahia for 3 months, visited Rio de Janeiro - than a 3 months period of teaching English in a school in a small town in the state of São Paulo Brazil. Following my passion to the Portuguese language I came to Portugal, I kept volunteering in different projects in Scotland, Swiss, Portugal, Israel, Bulgaria and more. I am a musician (mostly a singer but I play some guitar/piano and clarinet) but I am very open to learning and trying new things. I've been known to be a very good listener, and my English is rather good so I can also answer back (now in Portuguese as well). I like to keep healthy, swimming 1.5-2 Km almost every day, I like nature and beautiful untamed views and there's nothing better than water resources to dive into in my eyes. I usually get along with everybody around me. I have been a vegetarian since the age of 10, I hate smoking or being around it. That's it for now folks. I think it's enough. Oh Yeah, I like coffee. a Lot!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's just another part of me experiencing new things, I guess, why not?
