About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the entire world

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Israel and I am an Israeli... however, as my parents are British then I have a british passport. So around 12 years ago I took the decision to go on a short 2-3 year adventure and live and work in the UK, the adventure has turned out longer then expected.

London is a great place, the UK is great place and its also a good hub to go travelling from and this has kinda been my story for the last 12 years (aside of course from furthering my career, education and all those other things people do in life).

PHILOSOPHY

Always look on the bright side of life, and always keep your feet on the ground.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I spread the word of CS! I am a keen believer in word of mouth marketing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Plenty and sometimes I feel I could do with a break if I'm honest.

Interests

I have many interests... I enjoy travelling, hiking, photography, reading. My reading apatite ranges from fiction to topical material.
In education I am more of a social scientist, however I enjoy learning how things work and why they work the way they do in both social science and exact science.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've chased the Northern Lights / Aurora Borealis and discovered wonderful Scandinavia in the process. I've also climbed Villarica volcano (active) in Chile. These are experiences I will never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some photography tricks (though I am not a professional... I consider myself a good amateur).
I can also teach some history, geography and perhaps some other subjects and I can teach how I cook the stuff that I know how to cook.
I can also tell you my tips for seeing the Northern Lights / Aurora Borealis.
