About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To create a better world :)

ABOUT ME

So if I think about it a bit, I guess the storyline guiding me through my life can be summarized in one word - passion. It all started when I was about three years old and began doing my sibling's home work along with them instead of playing with dolls in order to soak up learning, continued when I became a vegetarian at the age of 7 after going to the zoo and deciding that animals should live happily ever after, went public by being published in a newspaper at the age of 11 under a post calling on people to be nicer to each other, and continues to this day - as what I plan on dedicating my life to. I've traveled most parts of the world, and my conclusion is that I love people - and will do anything to help create a world in which many more people are much happier. I am driven by emotion, believe in my abilities to have an impact, and am now trying to advance myself in that direction...

And now back to couchsurfing.. I believe every person is a fascinating world of knowledge, stories, culture, intelligence, history, and imagination, and i'm looking forward to meeting many new good people :)

PHILOSOPHY

Work like you don't need the money
Dance like nobody's watching
Sing like nobody's listening
Love like you've never been hurt
Live like it's heaven on Earth

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So this part is for one on one ;) I don't believe in telling computers my most interesting stories, I believe in telling you :-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hmm.. I can share my background and life experience which is unique (as is everybody's..), teach you how to take care of your back so that you'll still be able to travel at the age of 90, and make a nice healthy (Israeli or other) salad to go along with it ;)
