About Me

I'm a programmer working for Google. I travel a lot but when I don't I still like to feel like a tourist in my country - always looking for new places to discover, and new people to meet. This is why I live in the nicest, most touristy area in Tel-Aviv.
My long journey to South America changed how I view traveling and free time. I've always been a big fan of hiking and nature, but traveling made me realize the experiences you have with local people are the best ones and can make your trip into something truly special.
The one month I spent volunteering with kids in Colombia was the best part of my trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet locals whenever I travel, and learn the local language. I also want to give this experience to other people that are visiting my country, as I've done with my friends from Mexico, Austria, and the U.S.
I love giving tips on how to travel Israel and where to go, especially nature and hiking, and to get tips from local people when I travel.

Interests

Love hiking and camping, especially when I'm traveling abroad.
Played basketball many years, now I mostly watch NBA and euroleague, and also watch other sports.
Played pool semi-professionally, still love it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a very diverse taste in music, from classical to electro-swing.
I love movies from all over the world, the Hollywood ones tend to repeat. French and Korean cinema are some of my favorites! Israeli movies... I wouldn't recommend :)
