About Me

Just moved to Tel Aviv. New city, new job, new apartment 💃

After years of traveling (mainly in Australian, NZ, France and London) - I'm back in beautiful Israel.

I enjoy meeting new people and learning different thoughts and ideas.
surprise me with new ideas and I will remember you for long-long time! :)

I kinda read people very good and I trust my intuition.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cook Israeli Shakshooka all over the world!

Meeting good people is more important for me than museums, archaeology and even more than food :-)
