About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn how to translate between cultures

ABOUT ME

I grew up in London and Jerusalem, and worked as a social worker, kindergarten teacher and tour guide. I like to explore and travel and enjoy life - my greatest challenge is to be as happy and openminded at home as I am when I'm travelling. Now I live in Berlin with my wife Noémi, occasionally study at the university, and work on sporadic projects in the community.

PHILOSOPHY

Things usually work out for the best, if you let them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been in Berlin for about five years: I'm no expert, but happy to give advice to anyone who wants information about the city, the area, the politics and the culture. I'm fairly involved in the Jewish sub-culture in town, so if you questions about that niche, happy to share.
