Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To expose people to my greatness, hence facilitating the future global take over
ABOUT ME
I'm a tech geek with a rational mind but a soul of an artist - an writer, an author and a dreamer. It's a weird combination, but I make it work.
All in all, a man of words and contradictions. Of weird humour, hobbies and friends. A futurist with a touch of the past - writes about gadgets on paper, promotes electronic arts but collect books from a hundred years ago. A shy geek with a sarcastic and blunt sense of humor, and an affinity to make other people blush.
PHILOSOPHY
Even with all the pollution, depression, wars and hunger, look at all that we created! It's a glorious world, and I'm always willing to see more of it - and to help others see more.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Tel Aviv is one of the most vibrant, interesting cities in the world - and what better way to help the community than to let people enjoy my apartment? Great food, company and gadgets galore, and I live right next to the park and the beach.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've met some of the nicest, most intelligent people in couch-surfing parties. I've lost touch, but I'm eager to return - and now that I have a great apartment, to host as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have seen the kangamangus highway in full bloom, when the leaves change. I've touched and mended people. I've loved and lost.
But the most amazing thing is the one I get to do almost every day - talk with brilliant scientists, CEO's and geeks from all over the world, and expand my mind.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could tell you all about what I can teach you, from the many joys of Tel Aviv to the vast collection of trivia that I collected, but mostly I want to learn.
What do I want to learn? Everything. New forms of art, of food, of culture, of philosophy, of sexuality. All that people can teach me. Bring it on!
