HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Let us cut to the point:
As a very well experienced traveler,i know what is the most important things to you while having limited time to explore each country.
you can use my assistance with everything i can offer
you can sleep at my place or just use my home/car to drop your bag while touring around.
You may do your laundry & surf the internet with your WiFi connection.
I will not make you first to get to know me in order to use my "facilities" - go and explore first!
i had wonderful memories thanks to this website!
now it's my turn to give back.

I HAVE AN ELECTRONIC COPY IN ENGLISH OF THE LONELY PLANET ISRAEL - if you wish to get it please just drop me a message.

if you have any more requests just ask.
i'm willing to meet almost anyone from other countries and cultures,i usually tend to refuse profiles with no references & pictures.
i wish I've got to know this fantastic site even before!

some things you might don't know about Israel:
you can spend much more than 10 days in Israel there are so many things to do around here.
an answer to a common question :it is very safe here,i don't know what you see on the news but the unsafe places are not touristic at all & usually there is nothing to look for there.
there is no holiday in July and August but it's getting much hotter.
you should defiantly visit Tel aviv & Jerusalem,& the dead sea area including hiking around +souther to machtesh Ramon. you might want to visit up north which is very different from the south and see the Golan heights, Nazareth & the sea of Galilee & hike there as well.
Israel is a very diverse & unique country in many ways & everywhere you go is very different even though it is so small.people are very friendly & if you can understand the spirit you will not understand why Europeans can't behave the same (i'm just kidding - Israelis are just very forward ppl :)).the parties& the gay scene are some of the best you can get and Tel aviv is an uprising gay capitol of the middle east with endless parties & gay tourists especially around June while celebrating the gay parade . i have been to so many places around the globe but in Israel there are things you just can't find elsewhere.the weather is just perfect most of the year & the food is a unique mix of middle eastern ,European & Arabic cuisines and in a fine quality.prices are around the same like Amsterdam i think & there is a lively night scene.
the historic wealth is indescribable.
all of those together makes Israel to a hidden touristic jem. actually most of the foreigners coming here are surprised from what they thought about Israel before they came & how it really is and many come back.
if you want to speak on Skype we can do that but writing a whole itinerary here will be too long...

This Video will give you a good glimpse of what Israel is made of:
