Im Maayane, 25. I just got back from a trip around Central America, and just fall inlove with the landscapes and the people. Love traveling and want to discover as much as i can on this planet. Love people, looking for new experiences.

In the last 4 years I spend my time working and traveling. I was for few months in France in a ski resort and than in Paris. After that I spend a year in Australia, Specially in Tasmania and Alice spring. Than I spend some time in India and the philipines and it was just beautiful, specially the diving there. I traveled later in Sweden, Russia and Mongolia, using the transibirian train, and loved it.

Photography and cinema are my passion, and thats what i've done for leaving before starting my traveling. I work as a cinematographer or camera assistant, I love the feeling of creating and telling a story. Moreover, I love to catch any good moment with my camera, I use a digital camera but as well I like using my film camera.

Im positive and love life, believe this world is amazing. Asking alot of question, and curious about the philosophy of life. Always looking for adventures and new experience. Im easy going and chill. Im a very respectfull and responsible person. Enjoying most hiking in nature, i specially love arts and creation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Part of my goals is to meet new people around the world.
I believe the magic about traveling is the knowledge i get from meeting new people. The longterm friendships that are born from a shared experience with people i would have never meet on another situation. I love it.
I had so many amazing experiences with CS, it made me meet people that got deep into my heart.
