Meet Your #Birthright Israel #Shorashim #Bus461 Staff
Gabe Pransky
Where are you from?
Philly
Where do you currently live?
Efrat, Israel
What is your favorite place in Israel?
Machtesh Rimon at night. The stars are like a fireworks display.
What is a fun fact about yourself?
I am a citizen of the USA, Israel and Brazil, though I'm not even sure if it's legal for me to hold on to all three. I almost always speak English. My Hebrew is decent, but embarrassingly poor when you consider how long I have lived in Israel. I don't know any Portuguese (except some of my favorite foods).
What are your words of wisdom for your future participants?
Shorashim is awesome for a lot of reasons, but everybody knows that the best part is doing a trip with Israeli peers completely integrated as participants in the trip. The Israeli and American participants develop the strongest friendships (or more-than-friendships) that forever connect them even across oceans.
