45 years old, co-founder of the Emanuel family... Wife and 4 little kids...
But once in a while get the chance to travel by myself.

I love Nature, sports, traveling, cinema and chocolate mousse.
I adore originality and dislike mediocrity and hypocrisy.
I try to live once and not only say so.
I am a free spirit and believe it's not normal being normal...

Vegan, lives in ecological community

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to know places but through the locals who live there.
I used to travel a lot few years ago, when I got my dog, and later a wife and now 3 children... So I'll be happy to use it in short trips and help anybody who is coming to Israel

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching my children smiling...

Skydiving course ("The best thing you can do with your clothes on...")

Hitching around New-Zealand and getting on a car with a charming Maori Grandma who took me to see how her family lived. That means changing to shorts, crossing a river (while the grandma holds her grandson on her shoulders...) and meeting amazing family

Teach, Learn, Share

I once asked an aussie guy who had been traveling for 8 years, what did he learn : "I learnt to listen" he said. So true.

I realized the real meaning of freedom is excepting life and not fight what’s happening, that real happiness can come only from within and that the opposite of love is fear (hate comes from fear).

When I was 30 I realized the only thing I know for sure is... that I don't know
I love watching kids and learn from them

What I Can Share with Hosts

Openning the door for ones heart is much more important then opening the door to ones house.
