Here’s a photo of our group at Masada. We woke up at 4:30am, rolled out of bed, fueled up and we’re off to hike the mountain just in time for sunrise. The view was beautiful and it was a moment of gratitude. We toured the remnants of the old fortress, listened to the tale as [...]
We have finished our time in the North and heading to Jerusalem for Shabbat. In the North we saw two of the holy cities; Tzfat and Tiberias. A Jeep tour along the Syrian boarder helped all of us see the history and better understand the layout of the conflict going on right now with the [...]

Having a blast, even with lots of rain. Group bonding is in full swing. Heading to the old city of Jerusalem now, yesterday was at Yad Vashem and had some powerful processing together.

Bus 210 began their first full day in Israel by hiking the Jilabun. They then had a Jeep tour starting in the Marom Golan, then had a chocolate workshop with De Karina, and ended the night with a bonding activity in their hotel at Kibbutz Ein -Zivan!
After nearly 18 hour of travel time, our group of young adults touched down in Israel. For many, this has been the first time stepping foot in the Jewish homeland. Excitement, exhaustion, and elation are just a taste of the range of emotions our participants have been feeling throughout their first half of the trip. [...]
Shalom family and friends, We made it to Israel! After nine and a half hours in the air, we finally landed at Ben Gurion Airport where we were joined by Ashley and our Israeli staff. Our travels were smooth and many of us even managed to get a few hours of sleep. From there, we [...]
We’ve landed and have settled in nicely to a routine. We spent yesterday and today in the Golan Heights and the upper Galilee and are having fun despite the rain.
Things are going great so far! Easy flights and getting through the airport! Had a nice dinner at the hotel, fun icebreakers and a powerful opening ceremony. Now waking up to the sea of Galilee and heading to a nature walk, after a morning of mindfulness practices :) Had some great time connecting in nature [...]
