ABOUT ME
Born and raised in a Kibbutz, and you might take me out of the kibbutz but you cant take the kibbutz out of me. (Dont know what's a kibbutz? Im not surprised :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibbutz now you do!)
What does that mean? It means I'm usually easy going...especially when things are going my way!
I'm quite an organized person, though I have had no problem adapting to anything life has thrown my way yet.
I enjoy meeting new people and learning new stuff.
I graduated from East Asia Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, majoring in Japanese...and am now working on my Korean in Seoul.
And for all those people who keep asking why....my answer is...why not :) !
PHILOSOPHY
Traveling, meeting new people and going through life with a smile.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
By providing the bars who host CS meetings with too much money...plus the oh so usual hosting of people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have surfed in Europe, Mongolia, Thailand, Japan and Korea...all of them were amazing!
I have hosted my share of surfers...for some reason they tended to be German, Korean or Japanese...guess which cultures I like?
Interests
East Asia culture and history, mmorpgs (as if I have time for that anymore :( ), reading (I try to read as much as I can ya know!), Ski and snowboarding.
As an employee of the largest chain of outdoor gear in the country for the last 5 years I have to admit I'm into hiking and annoyingly expensive gear I cant afford.
