Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and i? i biked the one with less hills
ABOUT ME
I am a freelance journalist based in Jerusalem. I enjoy biking, hiking, general outdoor activities, and a good cold beer afterwards. I love to cook and explore new places. I'm easy going and love hearing about travel stories--I've got a few of my own. I am especially happy to host bike tourers (I biked Canada to Mexico in summer 2009 and am currently on a grand tour of Australia and Asia).
PHILOSOPHY
everything will be ok in the end, and if it's not ok, it's not the end.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
i'd love to have you, hope you'll host me too!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm lucky to have a wide net of friends in many countries, so I've only been officially "couchsurfing" through the website five or six times, but I am often a guest and am very respectful of privacy, etc. I also use the bike tourers couchsurfing, warm showers, more often. But I swear I am a good person, even if I don't have that many references!
Interests
biking, writing, reading, hiking, anything outside or near the ocean, a good meal with friends, a really fresh salad.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
biking Canada to Mexico - 2,000 miles... would not have been possible without the kindness of strangers and so many people taking us into their homes.
