ABOUT ME
26, born and raised in Tel-Aviv.
been a drummer since i was 15, and really love it.
after the unforgettable summer of 2008 (lowlands festival, and a RATM concert) - i saw what really makes me happy - exploring, partying, alltogether. Was a sound engineer during my army service, worked in a recording studio, now working as an electrical engineer.
also currently playing in 3 bands:
a Garage/rock'n'roll band called The Meatballs, an instrumental surf-rock band called RPS Surfers and a stoner-Mediterranean band called HeadOn.
PHILOSOPHY
living each moment throughly.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I had an amazing (and short) trip to the Netherlands and France with some friends from the army. we had lots of fun, and some great stories and experiences with the locals we met, which directed me to couchsurfing. meeting new people is the best way to get around places, so why not? if you need tips, even if i cant host you - feel free.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
London, Paris, Cork, Tel Aviv, oslo, bergen, tromso, Copenhagen -
so far both the surfing and hosting were all awesome experiences with lovely people. The concept gets better and better as you go!
Interests
seeing live music shows or playing with new musicians is always exciting, but i'm a great fan of diversity in life. many kinds of culture appeal to me, obviously not all of them. I like science and history, and the perspective of art in each. number one interest would probably be people :)

Music: i'm really mood-dependent. all in all a Rock'n'roll fan, psychedelic and space rock in the last few years but a lot of punk and metal history in my past.
some Jazz highlights, mainly bebop and hard bop, some guilty pleasure trash like glam rock or hair metal, some more out of the box stuff like mr. bungle. i'm much more picky when it comes to electronics i guess.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydiving.
Teach, Learn, Share
obviously I can show people around Tel Aviv, which is a great, interesting, versatile place. i enjoy learning different slang, and listening to new bands. i can share my music collection or recommend all kinds of different venues \ bars around the area, no matter your taste.
Noa (my spouse) is a real champion at tipping people on neighborhoods, stores and galleries.
