3 Reasons why having a Tour Guide in Israel is a Must

April 14, 2020 by Jessica Chen1 Comment

Israel is hands down one of the most beautiful and enchanting places I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. I have so many vivid memories of all the historical sites we visited, meals we ate, and people we met. One of the things that made the trip stand out among my other international trips however, was a guy named Assaf. Assaf is an incredible tour guide in Tel Aviv. He led our group of ~40 students all over Israel for 10 days. I had … [Read more...]

Sea of Galilee and Redemption

June 23, 2019 by Maxim Basilad1 Comment

The sea, the sea! That was my miraculous view for at least four Galilean days staying in a hotel on the outskirts of the ancient city of Tiberias, Israel. That was the Sea of Galilee or Lake Tiberias or Buhayrat Tabriya in Arabic or Yam Kinneret in Hebrew. This is the sea of abounding stories; biblical, archaeological, economic, political and of personal testimonies. One Night I was awakened by a dream. I was swimming in the sea’s deep … [Read more...]

Jerusalem, Israel – May 2018

May 1, 2018 by DaveLeave a Comment

A visit to Jerusalem is about religion, culture and several thousand years of history which is most obviously seen in the old walled part of the city. Tel Aviv is only about 45 minutes away with its seaside location, and makes a good entry point into Israel - yet the feel in Jerusalem is decidedly different despite being so close geographically. People come from around the world here - a number of them religious pilgrims, reverent at seeing what … [Read more...]

So one of the appropriate things to do is leave tips after an amazing meal or a memorable service. But hold on to your money for now. Inasmuch as tipping feels good to the soul, it may do more harm than good. Not all countries appreciate it. The last thing you’d want during a trip is to find … [Read more...]

Going Solo: Reasons to do it… or Not

November 26, 2016 by Ariel2 Comments

Many of my travels have been solo throughout the years. I went around the country and even around the world all on my own starting at the age of 18. My parents hated it, my friends thought I was going to die, and everyone I met along the way acted like I was Amelia Earhart going on an impossible mission. Look at me! I’m alive and still travel solo! I love doing it, and I will continue to do it until the apocalypse... or I find my soul mate. … [Read more...]
