I was born in Israel in 1947. At home I got German education. In 1968 I finished my 3 years duty service in the army (IDF). For the next 10 years I worked as a bus driver and then I was sent by my management to an official tour guides course that changed my “hobby” to my main profession for the coming 26 years. In between I got married, had 3 daughters (two of them have their own children). In 1978 I was sent by my employer, who was at that time the biggest tour operator firm in Israel, to a professional tour guides course. 1979 Licensed Tour Guide form the Israeli Ministery of Tourism. since then I was exposed to all kind of activities such as school trips, hiking, senior citizens outdoor “tailor made” trips, and private guiding for V.I.P guests.
