About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find a place to study for my PhD

ABOUT ME

Currently, study human rights in London. Before that I was a lawyer in Jerusalem, and before that I worked in education, and before that I did all kinds of things. I like to cook, read, have meaningful talks with people (and cats, if they are in the mood), and all sorts of political activism.

PHILOSOPHY

At the moment studying other people's personal philosophy. catch me after the exams...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not hosting at the moment, but I used to when I had a place. Surfing, when I have a chance, and going to meetings, when I remember when and where they're held.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I learned somethings about Basque music, history of Amsterdam, Politics in Texas, parties in Lebanon, punk scene in the US, flying with special needs, and many things more. People are fascinating creatures.

Interests

Reading, Writing, cooking, traveling.
Human rights struggles, Gender issues, math (as long as it's dummy's adapted), Sci-fi & Fantasy, and oh many other things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Squashing 6 shelves in this tiny box -
Pratchett; Adams; Fry; Bulgakov; Shakespeare; Books about Books, Sci-fi; Hebrew poetry & literature, and some Good children books.
Music - as long as it's good. Classic, Rock, Jazz, metal, and a shameful affection to Musicals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've jumped of a moving train once, thought transnational organized crime, and until recently had a cape. But it all has an explanation that has nothing to do with being superhero, really.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can probably teach you how to make some tasty vegan/Middle Eastern food. Or basic international law, if you like this sort of thing....(:

I like to learn about the life experience of other people - mostly what they do and what they care about. Uusually those are the best stories.
