ABOUT ME
Hi!
My name is Matan, I'm 32 years old, born and raised in Jerusalem and long ago moved to TLV. I study for a Bachelor of CS degree at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. During my second year I started working as a Software Engineer at Intel where I worked for 3 years. in 2015 I decided to leave my position at Intel in order to explore other opportunities and I'm currently trying to develop my own business as a private chef for special events.

My apartment is located in the TLV city center where most of the night life goes on. It is also very close to all the main touristic attractions and to all available public transportation

It has been in 2013 when I decided to switch to a Vegan diet, I feel like this choice made me a healthier and a happier person, I always had a strong connections to animals and this change had only came natural to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During the years I travelled to many places, sadly never tried to use this platform to meet new people in my various destinations.

I'm here to FIX IT!

I always like to meet new people and plan where to visit next myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took part in a team that blew up an entire minefield in order to remove the old, horrible, dangerous explosives away and clear the ground for agriculture.

During the process we exposed the mines from the dirt using our bear hands and a magnetometer then connected the whole field to a network of detonators and blew it all at once!

Well, that's a very very big BOOM :)
