I'm on a journey of a few months with the goal of exploring my way in these crazy times of changes, to reinforce my connection and my love to the earth and the world, and taking part in activism for a better world, especially climate justice.

I'm a massage therapist, and working in a project for mitigation of human - wild animals conflict, in an sustanable and non-violent measures.
I'll be glad to give a massage treatment as a thankyou for hosting me :-)

I live in Amirim - an ecological-vegetarian village in Israel-Palestine. Maybe the first vegetarian village in the world. A center for health and mind-body therapists and treatments.

I'm vegan (but ok with non-vegan homes), don't smoke, and I fully vaccinated.

living life, feel it, experience - that's my main goal. by feeling my emotions - not running away from them. by less work and consumption and more life. by being an activist since my early youth - for animal rights, feminism, environment, anti-occupation, queer rights... - being a living part of the world is being involved in it. the personal is political. by feeling the earth, the air, the sun and the rain. by loving.

I was born in a small Kibbutz near the big and tense city of Jerusalem.
I'm a Gender Queer - I identify myself as neither a man nor a woman

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

being kind to people and meeting kind people. traveling without the need to exhaust myself at work for months, to get enough money, and giving others the opportunity to do so also

I hosted people in Jerusalem, Haifa and Amirim, and traveled over europe with couch surfing.

fell in love.
activism.
breath.
living.

Teach, Learn, Share

i can share stories from israel: a very little country, which is a center of a very big religion conflict, but also of a very big animal rights movement, an interesting alternative and radical culture, and a world center of migratory birds .

I would love to teach: basic renovation and fixing things at home, including electricity. Psychoanalysis for amateurs, "how to be a male feminist and don't fight against yourself".

I would like to learn: a lot :-)
