CURRENT MISSION

Mission? I'm on a random walk.

ABOUT ME

Recently moved to Hamilton from Tel Aviv, Israel. Doing a PhD in mathematical biology, trying to combine my love of the living world with my passion for math (yes, there is such a thing).
My main poison is climbing (mountains, cliffs, ice), but am addicted to MOVING in general.
I care a lot about a lot of things: animals, people, nature, art, knowledge, food. I have a lot to learn about all of these.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm here for the ride on this rock moving around the milky-way. Trying to have as much fun as possible along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the first rays of sun hit the Matterhorn.
Had hot tea with good (if soaking wet) friends under a rock overhang, with rain pouring just beyond it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to make chocolate mousse in the outdoors (ok, not anywhere... I do need super-cold water) or some math, take your pick.
I'd love to learn how to take care of my bicycle, play the guitar, a new language, dance ... well, I enjoy learning, so really, just about anything can fit in here.
