CURRENT MISSION

To interact with interesting people.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Israel. Don't agree with what is going on there. Luckily I have Canadian citizenship, so I left Israel and live in British Columbia, Canada. My awesome partner of 5 years, Lia and I are working at an Amazonian Plant Medicine centre near Iquitos, Peru until late September 2018. Trying to be inspired and be engaged in the process of change with an open heart and a smile!

PHILOSOPHY

It is what it is, trust the process, but be engaged and take responsibility. Forever be a student.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted many couch surfers a few years ago, then life got hectic and I dropped out of the CS scene until July 2017. All my experiences were positive! Though sometimes we hardly had time to hang out. At other times we showed our guest/s some sights. So far I've only met good people with good positive attitudes, so even if I could not hang out with them they still managed to have a good time and the small connection we had was positive.
