About Me

I just finished my BA in PPE (Politics, Philosophy and Economics), and I would really like to travel, meet new people and new experiences before I start a day job as a programmer in Tel-Aviv.

I really like going abroad and exposing myself to new cultures. I am very open minded, looking to meet new friends and new places.

I'm a programmer for the past 12 years, and with my BA in PPE I'm intereseted in how technology can improve politics and our democracy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard a lot of amazing stories about CS from my friends, and I would like to try it myself. I'm visiting London for about a week (Christmas, new years, and a couple of days later). I'm visiting a friend for a couple of days and then I would be very happy to try CS for 2-3 nights.

Interests

Good conversations on almost anything- politics, economics, biology, philosophy, history, food, music, culture, high-tech and more

I enjoy making food and I'm always up for trying new tastes
I really like music (but unfortunately bad at making it...)
I'm really good with computers and I actually love fixing things around the house.
