About Me
CURRENT MISSION
See the world, experience more, meet and spread love.
Have finished, more or less, my BA in a student exchange semester in Seoul.
Now I turn to explore the uncharted lands of the exotic (uhm) Bay area.
Burning man awaits.

Big music lover, cinephile, a modern hippie on a motorbike.
I used to work in video editing combined with plenty of backpack traveling around the world in the past few years. I've been around much, and I tend to do so thoroughly if I can.
I practive yoga & meditation and spice it up with psychonauting and partying. In between all that, I strive for real conversations.
Much more to be said, but face to face is the only way to truly meet.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is one of those examples of how modernity, though usually alienating, can also sometimes utilize random interactions and bring more happiness just by making people connect to one another. It can be beautiful. It's simple, direct and potentially wonderful.
I've surfed a bit and have hosted much where ever I had a place for someone else. Some in Beijing, hosted in Jerusalem, and plenty all around Korea.
Music, Movies, and Books
Radiohead, Grizzly Bear, Beck, Tame Impala, Mac Demarco, Camel, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Fleet Foxes, to name just the first to come in my mind. So much more. So much more to listen to.
Most stuff by Gaspar Noe, Lars von Trier, Wes Anderson & The Coen Brothers. And then a tons more.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Intercepted a ball and ran the entire field for a final touchdown, to finish the second overtime of the Israeli Football League finals and win the championship of 2009.
Generally speaking though, amazing things are almost common when traveling around.
Teach, Learn, Share
To be shaken out of the ruts of ordinary perception, to be shown for a few
timeless hours the outer and the inner world, not as they appear to an animal obsessed with survival or to a human being obsessed with words and notions, but as they are apprehended, directly and unconditionally, by Mind at Large - this is an experience of inestimable value to everyone and especially to the intellectual. For the intellectual is by definition the man for whom, in Goethe's phrase, "the word is essentially fruitful." He is the man who feels that "what we perceive by the eye is foreign to us as such and need not impress us deeply." And yet, though himself an intellectual and one of the supreme masters of language, Goethe did not always agree with his own evaluation of the word. "We talk," he wrote in middle life, "far too much. We should talk less and draw more."
Aldous Huxley
What I Can Share with Hosts
