ABOUT ME

Hey! I'm Tal, 28 years old, and I live in Rehovot, Canada.

I love seeing the world, and I'm curious about everything and everyone. I see some humour in anything (The reader has been warned).

I love traveling, learning, listening to music or playing it, books, cinema and meeting people.

Last but not least, I enjoy a good beer with decent people and some nothing-in-particular.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others in the manner by which you would like to be treated yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have helped host many people in the past in my flat in Jerusalem (we were 4 flatmates) with a friend's account, and he since left, so I started hosting from this account. Since then I hosted a few tens of times I estimate.

Meeting people is the best thing about travelling, and the best way to get to know a place: That's why I'm on couchsurfing :)

Interests

I like music very much. I like various types: mainly electric/industrial music, heavy metal, classical, Avant-Garde.
I'm also an avid traveller. I've traveled in south-east Asia this year, and in south America a few years back.
I love books, science, good comedy, and cinema.
I really love to climb :)
