About Me

ABOUT ME

Sorry guys, but since this is a very busy time for the both of us, we currently do not accept couchsurfers. Hope to come back to it when things cool down.

We're a quiet couple who know good hiking places in Israel and the beautiful corners of Tel Aviv, as well as nice pubs and good places for ice cream. We enjoy eating good food and cooking, drinking good coffee and beer and love hiking. We would love to advise you about your trip to Israel since we've travelled quite a lot in our small but beautiful country.
We would also love to hear and speak about your and our culture, politics, countries and beliefs.
We have two huge cats named Zelig and Albert who are the cutest creatures.
