Hi!​

I'm Omri Galperin, an independent travel writer and journalist.

I publish and broadcast mainly for the Israeli media.

I specialize in the fields of tourism, culture and nature.

​

As an independent journalist, I have written for several medias, including print magazines and internet sites, as well as worked for several TV stations as a director and presenter.

​

I have covered already dozens of destinations worldwide. Some of them were for my TV show 'Touching the World' but the majority were for print magazines and leading Israeli internet sites.

​

In my personal life, I am married to Orit, who is a biologist and a photographer. We occasionally work together on article projects.

​

During my life I mainly lived in Israel but spent two years in the Faroe Islands, where that I worked on my first book. Currently we live in England, which it is my current departure destination.

​

I have a BA in Media and Political Science from Bar Ilan University. I have my Master degree in Holocaust studies from Haifa University  as well as a B.Ed. Diploma from Oranim Collage and a tour guide diploma as well. I love teaching pupils and giving lectures to all ages. Furthermore, I obtained an international Tour Guide certificate from the Rimon Institute.

​

In my spare time, I play drums, make cheese and even produce natural soaps.

​

As a travel writer, I am interested in cooperating and discussing relevant proposals regarding press trips. I look forward to hearing from you so we can explore all options.

​

As I love writing, I published my first novel book 'The Island at the edge of the Ocean' (2021). The book is available in Hebrew.
