About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To trace the civil rights movement across the South of the U.S.

ABOUT ME

Grew up b/w Israel and the United states in an Argentinean household with work focused on Sierra Leone; I am addicted to the thumping heartbeat of cities and love to travel and meet people more than anything. I believe in working towards ideals without being inhibited by or blind to reality and need a creative dose to keep me sane, usually making films or writing.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to keep a balance in mind, body and soul. Follow my gut. Appreciate things before they're gone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to couch surfing so still learning. Unfortunately, missing a minor ammenity critical to couchsurfing...a couch! But def. would love to show people around or have coffee until I find a bigger place!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hoping to have my first CS experiences this upcoming summer tracing the civil rights movement through the South - my first time travelling the interior of the US...

Interests

Dancing, singing, writing, reading, eating and filming. Drinking coffee with too much milk and sugar in it, staying up too late for fear of missing out on great things and regretting it the next day (always too much to do and so little time!), thinking through things during long showers, the moments before falling asleep, conversations about everything, listening to people tell their stories, and comfortable silences.
