About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Self care, mindfulness, (working on) flexibility, ebbs and flows, taking a break but moving towards re-activation.

ABOUT ME

I am a vegan, feminist, queer radical social worker. I moved to the States 10 years ago and just moved back to Israel.

I live in Tel Aviv with my cat. I live by myself and will be happy to host some folks. My house is vegan and trans/queer affirming so it's important you'll be able to maintain a safer space in the house.

I have a vision for starting co-op sanctuary for human and nonhuman animals and I'd like to talk about it with folks who are interested in similar dreams.

PHILOSOPHY

Intersectionality!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been to many places around the world and used different methods of traveling but love couch-surfing for its radical aspect, simplicity and human connection that is removed from currency exchange.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been using couchsurfing both solo and with a travel companion on-and-off while touring Europe. Some summers ago I used the website exclusively for a three weeks tour of Belgium, Netherlands and France. It was fantastic and I'm thrilled about future adventures :)

Since moving to the States I've hosted people both in Boston, MA and in Portland, OR, and frequently found those interactions fulfilling and meaningful, enriching my life with unique experiences.

Interests

I enjoy nature, hiking, camping, walking and biking. I am very moved by and committed to social change. I also enjoy reading, talking about deep stuff, exploring new territories, branching out and meeting new people. I love my cat.
