About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I'm a MD-PhD student at Ben Gurion University of the Negev in Israel, just about to finish my studies.
I live with my partner in life (and in crime) in Beer Sheva Israel, like to travel, have fun and meet new people.

ABOUT ME
In a nutshell, I lived in Jerusalem my entire life and know it very well, I enjoy meeting up with new people and help them with whatever they need and I can provide.
I've been living in Beer Sheva for the last 8 years, studying medicine and a PhD in biochemistry. I find the city to be very pleasant and fun although not incredibly interesting..
Right now I'm living with my partner in life, Dor, who is doing also finishing his medicine degree, and with our pets Laika and Piter.

If you ever drop by, even if you plan on staying with someone else, send me a message as I'd probably be able to show you the cool pubs and get you to meet some interesting people.

I like philosophy, good food (and cooking it), good music, travelling and hiking etc' whenever I have enough time to practice it.
I love meeting new people and hear their opinions and experiences, especially over a pint of beer or a cup of coffee.

PHILOSOPHY
I generally believe in Existentialism (more Sarter and Kamu than the earlier ones) and would love to talk about any philosophy over a cup of coffee, tee or beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I know J-M and the area around it pretty well (stories and all) and would love to help anyone around.
I've been living in Beer Sheva for the last 8 years and find it to be very pleasant and fun. If you drop by, I'd probably be able to show you to the cool pubs and get you to meet interesting people.
Furthermore, if you plan on hiking in Israel, I just might join you or at least give you a good advice on where, when and how.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've slept at 5 people, hosted one guy and met 3 more so far and had a really great time!
I'm looking forward to have more people staying at my place so I can give them what people gave to me and learn a bit more about them in the process.

WHY AM I HERE
Generally, I believe that one of the best ways to get to know a place is through its people...and I find couchsurfing to be a great way to meet local people or help travelers around.
