I'm a photographer, director, saxophonist (or at least used to be...), UX designer, who started talking & smiling more and more through this site, meeting some extraordinary people and experiencing priceless moments.

I'm into way too many things, but also into books, design, art, brave filmmaking (content wise) and philosophy. Yet more than anything else, when I see someone who's passionate about a thing, or being extremely good at it, it sure makes me want to join whatever he/she's doing. A serious agile soul. I can't be in one place for a long time. I will probably get bored. Or killed. Or both.

Last but not least; theatre. This was- and still is- a very big source of passion and creativity in my life. Now films. Next Squirrels.

Fooling around as a bartender from time to time. Leading a UX & design department otherwise. Doing too many things to keep busy most of the time. ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly - to meet interesting people. It starts and ends with it, always.
Also - experience different life styles, meet mysterious minds and truthful souls, experience the undergrounds of a city / town, find out about the real gems.
Looking forward to catch up with the good ones around here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having fun doing gigantic things. Not caring about people's opinion when I was a little girl. Surfing gigantic waves.
Falling in love.

Hope that the bigger things are ahead.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can help with a warm introduction with Tel Aviv. The straight/gay version, as you choose ;)
Surfing sometimes. Can teach you how to juggle.
Making a pretty colossal Gnocchi, be warned!
