About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born in Israel in a suburb of Tel-Aviv and lived there until I began on travelling. Before my first year as a student I took a three years break dedicated only for travelling and exploring the world and myself. I started with travelling in the USA, worked for three summers (two month each) in a summer camp in Washington State, combining my passion for educating kids and exposing them to the values of friendship and nature and of course my love for the beautiful nature in WA State. After every summer at camp I kept travelling for another two months around the states.
In between I backpacked for 5 months all over South America and took part at a lot of cool outdoor adventures there.
Since I came back I live in Tel-Aviv and worked as a social coordinator of a study abroad program, so I'll get to meet a lot of people from all over the world.
I'm an Industrial engineer and during my vacations I still look for good opportunities to see new places, get to know new people and learn about new cultures.
When I finished my studies in 2018 I moved to New Zealand for a year, travelled all over in my campervan and experience a lot of amazing adventures, seen the most beautiful views and met some amazing people.
I'm an easy going guy, have a good sense of humor and very keen to meet people from all around the world. For me traveling is about the experience you have and the people you meet, the sight you see is a bonus.

PHILOSOPHY

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I got to travel in the USA with some people I meat through couch surfing. We went on few hikes on Moab, Utah and enjoyed good talks and good food.
I didn't get to host anyone through couch surfing though I do host a lot of "friends of friends" here in Tel Aviv and it have been great so far.

Interests

I really like cooking, I like all kinds of sports- especially basketball, enjoy hiking and traveling, diving, parting and just good talks with friends and of course having a good time. I try to combine it all.

Music, Movies, and Books

Bunch of good movies and books, I can't even count. About music, I love so many kinds of music, and basically, music gives the tone in my trips and adventures. Music has a big impact on me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing things I've done were probbably during my backpacking trips at south america.
I would love to share with you my stories about climbing an active volcano in chille, or feeding alegators at the jungle of bolivia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always seek for opportunities to learn new things. I like to teach people things that I'm good at as well. One of them can be my cooking skills.
I would be happy to share with you my experiences and my views on most subjects.
