ABOUT ME

About me?? such a task.. well, my name is Yaron. I've been told I'm funny, but I wouldn't trust any of those people. I can cook up some nice Arabic, Israeli, Morrocon and Syrian dishes. I can also make an American favorite - macaroni and cheese with ketchup!

I'm also a bookworm - from trashy sci-fi (Ender's Game, Perdido Street Station, Dragonlance, to Comic Books (Morpheus, Frank Miller, Gary Larson, Alan Moore), to serious literature - beckett, faulkner, celine, walter bejamin, michaux, thomas bernhard, dos passos, sebald, danilo kis, joyce, paul celan, pessoa, artaud, duras, kawabata, yukio mishima, kenzabaru oe, kobo abe, ryu murakami, akutagawa

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I donate couches. I use couches. I sleep on couches. I make films. I help others make films. I care. I shout. I laugh. I cry.
