ABOUT ME

A jounalist in a Israel's leading radio station, covering the Israeli political scene. I graduated highschool in Jerusalem majoring history, philosophy and arts. Loves travelling, a film buff and occasional reader. Jerusalem a great city, and all kinds of wonderers are welcome.

PHILOSOPHY

Do not take anything too seriously!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to show people around my hometown, host them on my couch, and hope to surf some couches all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some fellow surfers while travelling in Europe and we had a great time.

Interests

At the moment my main interest is news, that's what keeps me occupied most of the time. But it varries very often: I love hiking, and just wondering around without cause, watching films, reading and hanging out with friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

This is difficult; there is so much to talk about. We could talk about films and books, and I can tell you about where I come from. I love to learn new cultures, learning to cook different kind of food and singing songs in foreign languages.
