About Me

ABOUT ME

I am nice socialist guy. in hebrew I am funny, but in Spanish and English I am just trying to be and most of time it does'nt really work. both of my parents are argentinian, but I was born in Israel. as a journalist my job is to experience things and then write about them. as a good socialist, most of the time I am writing about social issues - workers unions, human rights and etc. I am writing magazine articles and opinion columns for the biggest newspapers in Israel, and in the past I edited programs in the radio and in the Tv. most of the time I work from my home, so in fact I do really less then it sounds. in last 3 years I am working as the chairman of the Israeli Journalist Union.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am always happy to sleep on people couches when I am abroad, and even more to host people on mine couch. first of all because I think it is a nice thing to do, and second because I believe it is a great way to travel and thats the way things should be.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a great girl from Belgium, and two girls from Catalonia that originally came to couch surf in my friend's place, and after a few days moved to mine. when I was in Berlin I couch surfed in the apartment of a girl, that couch surfed in my friend's house and became a friend of all our gang. I also couch surfed twice in NYC
