Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy the simple things in life, and change this world to a better place
ABOUT ME
I'm 26, soon going to finish my second degree in Biotechnology at the Technion. Finished the Israely army several years ago. I'm sick with a travel-bug, and love to visit new places. I'm a passionate swing dancer, board game player and a proud owner of a black cat.
I've traveled already quite a bit and my next mission is to visit London! I love meeting new people, exchange culture experiences and have fun together :)
PHILOSOPHY
Sometimes life is a bitch, but you need to fight for the life you want to have in order to be happy and fulfil yourself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've couchsurfed in Ireland at three different people's houses. Same about Switzerland. I think it's a wonderful idea and I fully support it. I've hosted at my place once and it was great.
Currently I'm in-between apartments, and going to move to a new place soon and then I'll be able to host :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfed in Ireland and Switzerland in few peoples houses and hosted one time at my place. It was great!
Also I met some couchsurfers here in Israel and had a really nice time hanging out with them.
Interests
My main interest is sharing knowledge with people on any topic we can think of. I think it's the best way exploring the countries I visit and share knowledge about my country. Mainly I enjoy science, travelling and simple human kindness :)

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Almodovar's movies, Wes Andersons movies and many more. I also try to enjoy British comedy yet I struggle with the humour sometimes (at least I try :) )
Music: Punk, Rock and indie. Anything happy will be welcomed too :)
Books: That's a long list! I enjoy mainly historical novels.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I think that living in this crazy country, Israel, is amazing enough. Sometimes it's unbelievable how far people will go to help you out. I'm glad that we have such a diverse community and we have a lot to learn from each other :)
Besides that I'm a very adventurous person and for sure can share some interesting travel stories with new friends.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd be happy to teach some Russian or Hebrew. It would be great to tell about the culture and the life style in Israel. If you are willing to hear about research in biotechnology- then I have a lot to talk about :)
Would be happy to discuss local culture at the places I'm gonna visit.
