ABOUT ME

grew up in a tiny kibbutz (communal village) just out of tel aviv and a hundred meters from the beach, so i got both the urban hipster and the nature boy things going on.

i like hiking more then anything else in the world - nothing can compare with a dip in a natural spring in the desert. other than that i live for music, all day and all night, live acts are, obviously the favorite. and also books, and arts, and theater and architecture. and friends, obviously that two. i'm a huge fan of long talks over a cold beer (or a hot coffee).

but don't get me wrong - it's not a "girls (or rather guys) just wanna have fun" approach . before everything else i'm a humanist and socialist and as long as there will be oppression and injustice also an activist.

so i guess i'm good for fun, lots of it even. for underground music and arts scene or desolate desert treks. but also a non compromising close up look into Israel's sometimes harsh and cruel reality

PHILOSOPHY

Live as if you were living a second time, and as though you had acted wrongly the first time (v. frankel)
