One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nuphar - moved to the country side from the city one year ago.
even though i miss the 'buzz' and the excitements of being in the city, i wouldn't replace it with the quiet and ease i get now :)

Avri - I created an interdisciplinary improvisation street show, and performed with it many times in Jerusalem markets, it was heart opening and fun!

Teach, Learn, Share

we'll be happy to teach you any skills we have! :)
herbalism, fermentation, traditional crafts, sewing etc..

Nuphar would love to learn and practice Portuguese.

we love to cook! and would love to share meals together if you're into it :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are both quiet and pleasant people.
it's important for us to respect the place we are in, to keep the space neat and clean.
we are aware and sensitive to our environment, with holding and respecting the boundaries of the people around us.

we both enjoy listening to people and diving into deep and open conversations when it flows :)
