Hey! My name is Gilad, 25 years old from Israel. I'm currently enrolled as a Junior in IDC Herzliya as a Computer Science major, estimated to graduate 2020.
Other than messing around with a computer, I love playing the drums (you're welcome to check out my metal band Halidom on YouTube), and I have way too many cats mouths to feed!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After I came back home from backpacking South America and the US for half an year, travelling has grown on me and I'm looking to make new friends with backpackers, tourists and locals ever since.
People fascinate me - let's talk about life, fears, goals, adventures, whatever makes us human beings. :)
I love getting to know the countries and cities I visit, and become familiar with the culture, music and "rhythm" of the people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travel alone! I learned so much about the world and about myself, and it changed my entire thinking process completely, and for the better.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages! I speak Hebrew and English fluently and I'm trying to learn Spanish.
I would like to language exchange if possible!

If you want, I have a drumset in my room. You're welcome for lessons, and rehearsals of my band (in TLV). :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Opinions about the world, passion of travelling and drumming. I want to get to know local music, because I think this is the soul of the people, the "rhythm" of their everyday life.
