CURRENT MISSION

To live like a Bedouin.

ABOUT ME

I felt that I needed an adventure in my life so I started to travel. I originally planned a three month trip and it has been a year now since I started. I fell in love with traveling. Now that I have stopped my nomadic lifestyle I want to help other people travel by sharing my insight, experiences, and my couch.I like to read, meet new people, play tennis, ski, watch movies, and have a few pints.

PHILOSOPHY

That life is to short to live in one place with the same circle of friends we need to go out experience new cultures and people. From these experiences it helps us grow as a person and become more culturally aware.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couch surfed for my first time in Israel. When I host people I like to invite them into my life for the time that they are here, by taking them out with my friends, eating dinner with them, and just sharing interesting conversations. That is how my experiences were with couchsurfing and I like to do the same.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couchsurfing experience has been great. I enjoy surfing and hosting. They are both great. I first used couchsurfing in Israel and ever since I have been fascinated with the concept.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Wow one full year has passed since I started backpacking. It seems like time flew looking back, but at the same time it was long as hell, and hard as hell at times. I walked down the tunnel of perpetual travelling for one year, and the only light was to keep travelling, the new hostel, the new city, to keep going just for the sake of going. Even through all of the difficulties I had I would not trade them for anything, because they are my PhD in life."

"Traveling, if I was to put a label on it, it's (like life) a schizophrenic chameleon. It's a party, its an escapist, it's lonely as hell and it's beautiful."
