THE EXPECTATION 10 DAYS. 40 NEW FRIENDS. A ONCE IN A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE.
“
When I first set foot in Israel, I knew it was going to be a life-changing trip. I was trying to find clues of who I was, trying to find answers to the many questions I had about my culture and myself. All those answers came, while my fellow travelers and I climbed mountains that seemed insurmountable, walked deserts and explored ancient and spiritual cities. I realized as time passed that our Birthright Israel trip was a metaphor of what we have had to endure since we became a people. The big difference is that this journey was meant to bring us closer together, closer to our religion and to show us that we do have a land we can stand on. Israel is a utopia that many generations of our Jewish ancestors never thought could become true. While I was there, I was aware of that, with my eyes, my heart and my mind.
