I launched my career working as a guide at the ‘International School for the Studying of the Holocaust.’ There, I sharpened my skills to become a top-notch guide! And after taking thousands of visitors for over five years as a local guide in different museums, I decided to go professional and professionalize in the field by becoming a licensed tour guide by the Ministry of Tourism.

PERSONAL FAQ’S

  • How Do you know English that well? Honestly, I’m just good with languages! But apart from this fact, I’ve also lived in NYC for a long time. Also, Israel is very westernized so as a young kid, I use to see lots of T.V! which was all in English. All my fav T.V shows and movies were American productions. But I have also liked to read a lot since I was a young boy and a great deal of them were books written in the English language.
  • How did you find yourself working in this field? So to put it simply, one thing led to another. I wanted to be a teacher in Israel. But If being a teacher in Israel is super hard, one must be very dedicated. I needed something more fun but still in the field of passing knowledge to others. So being a private tour guide in Israel seemed to me like a natural path for me to take. And the rest is history!
  • What’s the best book you ever read about Israel? Well, I read lots of books, and to be honest, in every different stage of my life there was one book that blew me away. But with that said, the book that I recommend reading is 1948 – Birth of a State, by Benny Moris.
  • What’s your favorite site in Israel ever? Honestly, that’s a tough one! It depends on the time of the year. While we’re in the winter I love roaming the Judaean Desert. But in the summer I need to be somewhere cool and dry and then the surroundings Jerusalem is amazing for that. And in spring which is extremely short in Israel, I love the Golan Heights. Everything and it means everything is in full bloom quite a contrast to the long hot and dry summer we have most of the year.
