Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In the past I used to host many CSurfers in my house, and it doesn't stop amazing me how much fun it is ! I am a big believer in this type of travelling and hosting well is one of my main values!
I travelled in Europe for a few month and had an amazing CS excperience!
I also travelled half a year in Asia in 2015 and I went on CS there and I an amazing time!
Other people hosted me a few times, they where all great and interresting people! Its amazing, because it really works! and its a great way to learn about cultures, and countries!

Since moving to Amsterdam from Tel Aviv it’s is harder for me to host because of my living situation, so unfortunately I didn’t host anyone for very long, but I am happy to be more active in the CS community again!

I did the Everest bace camp track in Nepal,and it was the most beautifull place i saw in my life, nature at its best!

When I was 18, I volunteered one year in a school of youth at high risk in Jerusalem.
I met very interresting kids with hard stories.
When I was 19 I worked at a farm in the Italian alps, it was an agriculture and horse farm with amazing people!
