About Me

Hi everyone! 🌼
In June 2022 I started my travels in Europe, meeting good hearted people and integrating in beautiful cultures and landscapes for two years. In June 2024 I continued my journey to the other side of the Atlantic, beginning with Alaska and Canada.
I'm VEGAN and I care a lot about mother earth, so I appreciate and curious about alternative and sustainable ways of living 🌱
Thankful for my journey and everything I learn and share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because meeting good people from all around the world makes me happy and filles me with hope and power.
I admire the simple and beautiful idea of an exchange without money. I've been doing it in many different platforms and opportunities throughout my whole life.
Giving and receiving, while opening the heart.

Interests

I love traveling - hitchhiking, hiking, biking, road trips, and camping are a part of my everyday life. I love and respect the nature, the animals and the plants living in it.
I can't spend a day without listening to music, preferably also playing some, on a violin, a guitar, or any other instrument that comes into hand.
I like making arts, painting, drawing, creating things with my hands, photography. I also like to move my body and give it attention, so dancing, yoga, acroyoga, exercising, running, hiking, rock climbing and bouldering, snowboarding, cycling, soccer, basketball and the list can go on and on. You get the idea, I like to experience things with my body.
As a vegan, I usually have no choice but to cook for myself delicious and healthy food, and I love it. So I like making different kinds of food and desserts, new recipes or just improvise.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really really like music. All kinds (really all kinds!) It just depends on my mood. From Rock to Rap and hip-hop, through Trance and Techno, Metal to Salsa, Folk, Jazz, Classical and so on.. I especially like traditional music from all over the world.
I like reading, usually im looking for books I can learn from them. Unfortunately during my travels I don't really find the time to read.
I love movies, I watched many. One of my favourites must be 'Django unchained'.I like movies that leave you with a certain feeling, that move you, that make you think and play with your mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Discovered a spring in the Alaskan wilderness and found some gold flakes in it!

Teach, Learn, Share

We can cook and bake together, exercise and play sports. I can teach some violin and basic guitar and would love to learn any instrument. I can teach Hebrew and about the Israeli and Jewish traditions. Can teach how to navigate with a real map and basic surviving skills if it's interesting for you. I like learning new languages and cultures, new recipes, songs and narratives.
I like sharing beautiful moments with people, and a good hug or a good laugh are always welcome ☀
