The Birth of a Nation – Tel Aviv’s Story
Hi! I’m Stas, an innovation manager at Microsoft & a walking tour guide. I love sharing Tel Aviv with others. Whether it’s history, culture, or hidden local spots, I enjoy uncovering the little details that make Tel Aviv special. My goal is to make each tour feel like a casual stroll with friends —full of interesting stories, local tips, and, of course, good food recommendations. So, if you’re up for a relaxed and fun exploration of the city, I’d love to walk it with you!
