About Me

Enjoy travelling the world learning about languages and culture. Vegetarian. Spend my time trying to learn everything about anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to make lasting connections in the places i visit and get a real experience from the people i meet

Interests

Languages (some skill in Greek, Hebrew and Spanish as well as Mandarin Chinese). I try my best to be a martial artist, having studied fair amount of TaeKwonDo and some Wing Chun. I've played all sorts of sports, i'm fairly good at football and a bit less so at tennis and golf. I like reading, learning arguing and of course, travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Aldous Huxley, Charles Bukowski, Hunter S. Thompson and of course Jack Kerouac are jut of few of my favourite author. Read every book i could on buddhism so far.
Movies: I mainly try to just watch Chinese movies, that way it sort of counts as revision.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've hiked from Jerusalem to the dead sea with a convoy of UN soldiers. I ate a Bagel with a Hasidim as the sun rose over the temple mount. Hiked across the frozen fjords of Norway. Spent time visiting Palestinians in the West Bank. Smoked with lawless hippies in Christiania.
