Overview
About Me
I've lived in Ohio, NYC, Colorado and Israel.
I was an actor and a puppeteer for years. Now I freelance consult, travel, teach and mentor, and I spend time outdoors.
To live will be an awfully big adventure.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The heart and mind are like a parachute - they only work if they open.
On couchsurfing because it's personal and human. I value genuine human interaction and connection, and embrace it whenever possible. Love meeting people and plugging into humanity. I've traveled a lot over the years and there's so much to learn from the kindness of others! Everyone has a story.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music. Cultural/international music (happy to share Israeli music).
Some favorites are Jim Croce, James Taylor, David Bowie, Beatles, CSN, Stevie Ray Vaughan. Fleet Foxes, Jon Bellion, John Mayer.
I love a good story and books that are spiritually and philosophically challenging, thoughtful, personal growth oriented.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Just one...?
In Petra, Jordan stayed with local Bedouin. I hung out in his shop in Petra after hours, and we drank tea and played music for hours with his friends.
Teach, Learn, Share
Can teach/share Jewish thought, traditional songs and melodies.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A positive, fun adventure. Meaningful conversation. How to live in radical amazement.
