Recent college graduate from Brigham Young University studying Middle Eastern Studies with an emphasis in Hebrew Bible. I am from Chicago, Illinois and lived there for the first 20 years of my life. I am specifically from the Jewish suburb called Skokie, though I, myself, am Mormon. I love the outdoors, sports, and history.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My best friend Sydnee and I are in Israel for three weeks exploring the whole country! We just found out about couch surfing! If you ever want to come to Utah for hiking, climbing, skiing, snowboarding or anything - stay at our place! It is a top ten winter getaway for the United States.

Sydnee is 27 and she is going to school in Utah studying Psychology. I am 26 and just graduated from school in Utah in Middle Eastern Studies. I have studied Hebrew Bible for three years and am learning Modern Hebrew. We would love to familiarize ourself with Israeli culture - Especially for the Holidays we would LOVE to celebrate with a family in their own home - Hanukkah, Christmas, New Years, etc. We both love kids, have big families, and love to explore the outdoors and historical sites. We are touring all the biblical locations.
