Hello, I'm Yoni, a 32 year old humanoid of the masculine subtype. I lived, studied amd worked in Belgium, a mostly unremarkable rainy dwarf country somewhere between Paris, London and Amsterdam. When I got tired of living, working and studying I decided to go on a trip to Iran and this is where I'm at right now, in Istanbul, waiting to catch the nearest train.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

same reason I like hitchhiking : I figured it's one of the most direct ways of getting to know people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wouldn't exactly call it that amazing but I once did a 42 km pilgrimage around my city on bare feet? It supposedly should have cured me from insanity.. don't know if it worked though

Teach, Learn, Share

unfortunately I don't play any instrument and am a very bad cook. I also have a bad sense of orientation so I easily get lost. I do posses I strongly developed sense of curiosity which will permit me to absorb any wisdom potential hosts would be willing to share

What I Can Share with Hosts

a listening ear, a talkative mouth and two clumsy hands :-)
