About Me

Ever since I was a teenager Iv'e been traveling around the world with youth choirs. Now, growing up I'm still traveling the worls but solo. The best thing I can think of in this traveling a lot experience is the people I meet along the way. The culturs and the freinships are the most important for me.
I would concider myself a very open minded person just looking to soak what the world is willing to give me. I'm looking for people who want to make the best out of a short amount of time with someone else because I want to make the best out of everything I do and everywhere I go and for that I need to give it my best.
Nature, Parties, talking for hours, feeling like never before and just learn from everything and try everything. There is beuty in silence and beauty in noise, beuty in broken and in saddness. Beuty is everywhere if you just let it in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the first time I'm traveling to a place where I don't know anyone. I thought it would be wonderful to stay with is local or even just hang out together. I would love to know new facinating people and maybe teach them a little bit about my life in Israel and in general.

Interests

First of all and most importantly- MUSIC! More specifially? Opera. The stage has always been my life and where I felt most comfortable. In the past few years I came to realize that singing opera, combining the music and the drama is what makes me the happiest. I will go wherever it takes to get better and smarter about opera.
Other than opera I absolutaly love Jazz music. Wherever I go in the world I would like to visit the local jazz club.
Hiking, nature, fresh air, sun all of these are making me happy and calm. The israeli nature is fantastic aspecially in the winter. In one day with a car in Januarry you can ski in the north and 8 hours later go with a bathing suit into the sea in the south. Isn't it amazing?

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In South Korea I had one day off without rehearsal or performance. About six of us took a fairy to one of the islands in Tongyeoung and just climbed up and up and up. The view.. Oh My God the view. Water and water everywhere. Islands small and big and the skyline. The perfect wind and sun and most importatnly- the perfect company. It felt so right and I felt so lucky to see this beuty and breath that air. every rock was exiting, every spider and every step was absolutely beautiful, magnificent and just so good.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to tach my host about Israel. All the good and the bad things there is to know from a local.
I would love to learn about the local culture, and life in general as my host sees it.
We can share our thoughts, mistakes and knowledge about the love of life and the borders of good and bad, right and wrong.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will share everything if it feels like the right thing to do. I'm a gid believer of not pushing yourself to do what your guts tell you not to do and also a big believer of not stopping yourself from giving and opening up just because of social fear.
I am very very open to accept what the other are giving me wether it's hard or fun. I will listen to what's on your heart and will do all I can to make you feel like it wasn't a mistake to share it with me. Moreover, I will appriciate you so much more if you are willing to open up to a stranger and just show your true colors without being afraid.
