CURRENT MISSION

Try and combine work with my obsession with music and travel habits intact

ABOUT ME

If I could have endless amounts of time and money, I'd probably spend my life travelling all around the world and going to music concerts. However, as a realistic and down-to-earth person, I decided to throw it all away to pursue my interest in the human body :)
I'm a doctor, currently doing a rotating internship and hoping to get into a residency in burn reconstructive surgery.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life the way YOU want to. Don't wake up in 30 years only to realize you've been living your life for someone else...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Thus far, I have only used CouchSurfing to meet people (both in Israel and abroad) and have yet to host or be hosted. But I enjoy it nonetheless!
*update: I had the pleasure of being hosted in Australia recently - it's the most marvelous thing! I love getting to know locals in their native countries.
