Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Have fun with awesome people.
ABOUT ME
An aspiring artist, professional alcoholic, average programmer and generally a fun guy.
Born and raised in the great city of Jerusalem, where I now enjoy awesome student life. Renting an apartment in the city centre with two friends.
Until recently I was fighting my way to a degree in Computer Science. Now that I'm done with that I'm earning another degree, this time in Graphic Design.
In my dark past I was a backpacker across most of South and Central America (9 months in total). My travelling experiences were a lot about photography opportunities and SCUBA diving, but that's also where I met a lof of my now-closest friends.
On a more serious note; I'm a curious guy. I enjoy a lot of things - from arts to science to politics. One of my favorite things about travelling (second only to sightseeing) was meeting people and talk about various things that interest us, learning new stuff about the world. A beer or two on the side usually makes the whole thing even better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Heard about the website for the first time when I was looking for some company in Guayaquil, Equador. Only got to use it a bunch of times when I was travelling, but I think the idea in itself is awesome.
Interests
Well I'm into arts of all sort (in love with photography, graphic design, comics, cartoons, CGI) which I both enjoy and actually (try to) do myself.
I'm also a PADI rescue diver, I got to dive in quite a bit of places (mostly the carribbeans). I'm a HUGE movie aficionado. I try to watch as many movies as possible, both the new and exciting stuff and also all the old classics.
I'm also a huge geek. Everything technology related hugely interests me.
Lastly I consider myself a fun guy. I love parties, hanging out at bars and generally consuming various types of alcohol. I try to combine that last hobby with all my remaining ones.
