Hi! I'm Yael, I'm 24 years old, Israeli material. I was born here in the middle of all the middle east chaos, in an interesting country to grow up in (in my opinion). I started travelling when I was off my military service, and I fell in love with it almost immediately. I kept on delaying my return to Israel, and adding experiences and countries I want to have and visit. I'm home now for a few months before hitting the road again, and always enjoy meeting backpackers from all around the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard about the community from a friend and thought it was a great idea. When I started travelling I used it several times, and always had good experiences! I really enjoy meeting open minded, interesting people and I found the app to be a great option for it. I don't have my own place yet so unfortunately I'm not able to host when I'm home, but I'm really looking forward to when I will.

Movies that I like really depends on my mood
I like to read and try to do it more often. I was a harry potter junky as a kid, and now I mostly enjoy novels and less science fiction. Also enjoy books with philosophical point of view, such as The Alchemist, Badolina, The Little Prince..
I love the TV series friends and know so many episodes by hard (maybe all of them, but I promise to try my best to shut up if you want to watch it together though).
