Hi,

I was born in Jerusalem Israel, but I moved to Connecticut at age 3 and grew up there. I now live in San Francisco and work as a private tutor. I live in a Zen Buddhist community, which means that I wake up early and meditate every morning. I enjoy stage acting, reading and writing, and travelling, of course.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
