About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a worthy mission

ABOUT ME

I Grew up in Ra'anana, which is a small city in central Israel. After concluding my (mandatory) military service, I saved up a bit of money, spent the summer working for a Jewish summer camp and took off in search of adventure :)
My search took me to Alaska, South America and Spain (after a failed visa application to enter Morocco...). I developed a special fondness for Alaska, where I spent over a month and will definitely go back sooner rather than later.
I'm also a sports freak from watching to playing almost every kind of sport but my true passion is American Football. I played on the Tel-Aviv Sabres, and can proudly proclaim I was part of the first season of the IFL - the Israeli Football League!
I love hearing stories from all around the world, the more remote the place, the better :)

PHILOSOPHY

We can talk about it when we meet...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far only surfed a couple of times. Always a very interesting and positive experience. Really some of my best travelling experiences have come through CS!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love many types of music and I'm always up to hearing something new and unique :)
Favorite books - The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, and Shnataram, by Gregory David Roberts, which I read in Spanish so I probably missed some of it, but it was still an amazing experience. Will probably read it in English one day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kayaking about 40 yards from a humpback whale in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska.
Running the Equinox marathon in Fairbanks - considered one of the most challenging in the world :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm currently travelling, so if we meet I'll definitely teach you the fine (but simple) art of making Israeli black coffee. I would love to surf if anyone has the option of teaching me :)I'd also love to learn how to fish!
