ErezSpeiser's User Profile - Atlas Obscura

ErezSpeiser

My name is Erez Speiser. I was born in Israel in 1966, living now in Rakefet (Lower Galilee). By education I am a mechanical engineer. For the last decade I hold a marketing position in a multi-national metal-cutting tools company. However, my true Passion had always been nature and outdoors. I Enjoy Hiking, Mountain biking, Wind Surfing & Stand-Up Paddling. I Loves Israel and its nature and since 2018 I started to put my skills, passion and knowledge into promoting Hiking tourism in the country. Email: [email protected]
