Overview
About Me
I work in a dance company based in Tel Aviv, and together with my dancing friends we perform in amazing places all over the world.
I meditate, walk in the street with nowhere to go and sit in my balcony for hours with friends or by myself every day. I love to philosophize about art and life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm new on the formal website but I did much couch-surfing the low-tech old-school way. (3 hyphenated words in a row, boom)
I like wandering and wanderers, and in general encountering people out of their comfort zone. People on individual adventures are, to me, illuminated by an inspiring aura, being in such mental and spiritual states is crucial for the human experience. Some of the oldest religions preach that accepting wanderers into your home and providing them shelter is a noble act.
Meeting and accepting others is learning from experience what it means to be a human being living in our world.
