Overview
About Me
I'm a country boy with Midwestern values who, by some comical glitch of the universe sprouted, rooted, and grew in Beverly Hills. A dual citizen (U.S. / Israeli) since the age of 22, on a mission to see, taste, and save the world.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people from all over the world!
Interests
I carefully source my sustenance from Farmer's Markets and LA Wholesale Produce, do stairs every other morning, engage in a healthy amount of of networking, constantly generate growth strategies, vermicompost, build unique and meaningful brands from scratch, lift 3x-4x a week, cook all my own food, volunteer to walk shelter dogs on the weekends, and visualize myself / my life in 10 years.

Teach, Learn, Share
I'll teach you about worm composting - I'll talk for days about cannabis and how it's better for you than most pills, etc. I love showing people around my hometown of LA when I have time, of course. I'm not much of a club scene person, I rather enjoy a thermos of hot tea on top one of LA's mountains with a beautiful view of LA at our feet.
I'd love to learn about yoga. Teach me how to cook something new. Tell me stories of far away lands and pinpoint places on the map that I must visit!
