What is your favorite place in Israel?
The Negev. There is something very special about the desert and the Jewish people's connection to the desert.
What is a fun fact about yourself?
When I was five years old, I appeared on a local tv show called "Kids R Kids" featuring six kids, three of which had physical disabilities. We even did a mini tour of local elementary schools. Yes there are copies of the show and no I don't think they exist on YouTube!
What are your words of wisdom for your future participants?
Leave your expectations in the United States. This trip is unlike any other experience, even if you've been on a trip to Israel before! Be open to the experience and trust the process.
