Hi

:)

A Bio of me:
Before school, I worked in construction for about seven years. I realized I was not fully fulfilled with my life as a construction worker so I quit my job, sold my car and house, and decided to go back to college to become a photographer, but I also learned about art::::: and that was a good experience. I drifted for a few years, but now I have a job.

I try to stay in good health; I like to be physically active. I hope my travels will lead me to adventures like skiing, kayaking, or rock climbing. I also like to eat and share meals. I will attempt to cook whatever is in the kitchen, I make some killer guacamole.

Life is art. I originally started traveling just to experience art.

Beauty is everywhere. I consider myself open-minded, patient, curious, respectful, and grateful for different beliefs, ways of life, and values that are new to me. i like to make new friends :) and i love freaks.

i am a believer.

i do not smoke, drink, or do drugs.

i live with my wife Rita, and our baby. Rita speaks Russian and Hebrew.

I am 100% response rate

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started using couchsurfing because I was intrigued by the concept of opening your home to travelers. I thought, why would someone do that? Now I have learned the type of people who participate in couchsurfing have a special outlook on humanity. And I am proud to participate in the community and share my life.

Since I have become a "couchsurfer" I have really enjoyed making new friends and participating in the cultural exchange by having conversations, sharing meals, bicycle rides, and hanging out with good people.

i been thinking lately, whats up with sleep?

I wish you a great journey on your travel.
