For the past 3 months, I have formed a family with all my fellow Otzmakim—but not the family is separating into little groups all throughout Israel. Leaving Ashkelon is bittersweet. While Beit Canada definitely has it’s drawbacks, I miss many of the friends I have made in Ashkelon that won’t be with me for the next few months. I will miss those who I have become closest with and also the group as whole. I liked living with everyone, because there were always people around to talk to and hang out with and we really got a chance to bond. On the plus side, we all have different place to live, which will make traveling a lot easier, since we have way more places now to stay. I will also really miss Nana and ulpan. Nana is one of most entertaining and caring people I have ever met and I will miss her and going to class everyday. It was a rythym I was used to and liked. I am excited though to start new adventures: Sar-el, my volunteering, getting to know Beit Shean, living in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv and everything else I will be doing. My time in Israel is only 1/3 of the way done, and I still have so much more to explore here.
thank you photobook for nana =)
