We have officially been here fore two weeks! It’s crazy how
just after two weeks I already feel such a strong connection to the friends I
have made! At the beginning, it was hard getting into the routine and getting
over the jet lag but it’s starting to feel like home and these crazy 70 kids I
meet two weeks ago are my family and will be for the next four months! Today we
went on a all day Tiyul to the city of David. It was so cool to walk though the
streets and really feel the history in the neighborhood. We also got to walk
though an under ground tunnel that was the length of five foot ball fields. I
think the best part of EIE is instead of
learning about Israel though a text book we get to go to the physical cite and
learn the history while physically being there. This definitely comes in handy
when studying for my Jewish history test on Wednesday, normally fore me it is
hard to study for a test when surrounded by friends but here it is really cool because
all 70 of us came together and helped each other study which is an opportunity
that you cant get at school at home.
