Explorer/Adventurer
Yossi developed a unique style of exploring, by looking on the atlas for spots that are not covered by The Lonely Planet, tripAdvisor or Google. His passion to meet cultures that live off the grid and close to the Earth, drove him to the deserts of Sinai where he lived for 3 years, and the Sahara which he visited 7 times. He was the first visitor to arrive in the remote Catret Group Island where he celebrated with his fiance the millennium new year’s eve. These disappearing islands. The people of these 6 small paradise islands were the happiest and most hospitable people he ever met. Few years later these islands succumbed to the rising sea level and disappeared and the entire population move to the big island Buka.
In 2016 Yossi initiated a new tradition, once a year Yossi takes on a group of travelers on a real life changing adventure. The first expedition in Bolivia started at the high Andes descending to the Amazon on a rarely traveled dirt road. Followed by days in Canoes and rafts through the Amazon up the Madidi valley where Chalalan the resort Yossi has built with the Uchupiamonas in 1995.

Community work
As a speaker Yossi insists on a ‘Buy One Get One Free’ deal. Whenever he is invited to speak, hi asks his client to volunteer him to the community for any worthy cause. From India, to Switzerland, San Salvador, or Israel Yossi speaks to youth, to elderly, to children with special needs, to schools.
He is officially appointed as the ambassador of the uchupiamonas of the Amazon. Voicing their call to protect their ancestral lands from the threats of a electric plant that threatens to flood a large part of the Madidi Valley and threaten their livelihood.
The Uchupiamonas are the people that helped saving Yossi in his original ordeal. It is with them that he has envisioned and built Chalalan.

An ambassador for Shalva an organization that helps children on the spectrum of mental retardation and their families. Yossi’s 10 years daughter Nissim is a rare syndrome child with mild mental retardation, however Shalva invited him not knowing he himself was a father to a special child. It was destiny calling and Yossi now is an ambassador for Shalva.

A concept they defined as ‘person centric mobile agnostic’. They drove to Ramallah as an act of civil disobedience and engaged a Palestinian software company to partner with them in developing the app. In 2014 they received investment and 5 months acceleration from the prestigious  500Startups. While in Silicon Valley they pivoted to Blinq.
