ABOUT ME

Well, my first trip after the compulsory army service (3 years) was in Israel, March-May 2007 - the national trail;
it's a 1000 kms trail crosses all Israel, I've done about 700 of it... we mostly camped but sometimes stayed at friends, family, or something similar to CSing when people just saw us with our Muchilas and invited us for a dinner shower and warm bed...

Then came my big trip, November 2007-November 2008. I had a 1 year-open flightticket to Australia New Zealand Thailand, and back. I knew 0, haven't had too much money, and had to find it all myself - work my way around Aussie, hitchhike my trip in NewZealand...
(check out my video clip http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xazja6_downunder_travel)
couchsurfing helped me quite a few times. and sometimes people just randomly picked me up when I'm hitchhiking and invited me over. not formal CSing but still..
this was the best year of my life...
it changed my life 4sure.

right now I have to fight my travel-bug, coz starting my film studies in October.
