ABOUT ME

Dreams come true! Truly, believe in that. I have had so many dreams coming true that I know that we can materialize any dream of mine into reality.

Let me tell you a little about myself... :)

I was born in Tel Aviv in 1974, a second child to my parents who immigrated to Israel from Turkey 3 years earlier. To these days I have a big family in Istanbul, a city that I adore.

My parents' top priorities at home when I was a child were three: education; good food; traveling. A very bone vivant upbringing! We used to travel a lot as a family, and traveling is one of my biggest joys, with India as my favorite destination.

I love sports. Mainly I love football, basketball, surfing, sailing and Yoga. I am devoted to Reiki and to the meditation lessons of the Indian Yogi, Paramahansa Yogananda.

My first career was a lawyer. Moons and moons ago I was practicing law. It was a good adventure, with all the suits and skyscrapers, but it was nothing that I could pursue for a life time. Life has so much more to offer!

I was working as a lawyer until 2004, then I was invited to take part in a Canadian Middle East Peace Program and study for Masters in Social Work at McGill University, Montreal. Later on I was active in a community organization located at the heart of one of Jerusalem’s poorest neighborhoods, which works to strengthen the awareness of disadvantaged residents concerning their social rights. A very enriching and empowering experience!

On 2006 I had the opportunity to spend almost a year in Brazil. While being there, I put my energies into studying and going deeper into field of Online Marketing, a new professional field that I was curious about. After taking the time to study, it became my profession and passion. The unique character of my work allows me a high level of mobility and freedom to travel. Since then I divided my time between Israel and other destinations around the globe, until the wind brought me to Portugal.

I arrived to Lisbon about 4 years ago. The city accepted me with open arms. I am involved here in several fields, including tourism. I work as a tour guide and I give walking tours in the city. I have a sweet daughter, 4 years old. I share my daughter's upbringing with her mother. It's a joy to be a father.
