This has was a powerful moment as we have gone our entire lives seeing pictures of the holy city. Now we were finally here.

We spent our morning hiking in the Golan Heights, swimming in a freshwater spring, and taking in the beautiful views of the vast desert.
Our group arrived in Tel Aviv, after a long flight, greeted by a line of Israelis still in their IDF uniforms dancing and singing like fools. It brought a huge smile on my face and immediately made me feel comfortable, at home, and excited to meet all of them.
After this, we got on a bus to travel a few more hours north to Kibbutz Afik. We then had to run around Afik in search for our rooms which were nowhere near where we were at; it was an adventure. The first of many I’m sure.
