Shana Tova! Our September Update

Wishing you all shana tova amd gmar tov!

Shana tova from the Holy Land!

We can't believe that so much has happened in the time since Fall classes and the high holidays began. There is a phrase we have heard a lot in our three months in Israel: "אחרי החגים" or "After the holidays." Time in this country ticks around major Jewish holidays, and while the academic year starts at the end of August/early September, it seems nothing really starts until after Sukkot.

So, we've been up to a lot, settling into life of the Fall semester, but just enough so that we can change from school to holiday mode in not much time.

Pan y Miel: Our European Honeymoon!

Happy September friends and family!

Curious where we've been the last few weeks? Desparate for details on our super awesome honeymoon vacation? Just looking to stalk some photos of your favorite Fensters in the Holy Land? Well, then this is the post for you! Enjoy!

August 20: Gavi spent most of the day at her friend's house in the German Colony, she brought over Aroma coffee which comes with little chocolates. Israel is magical. After exploring Ben-Yehudah street  on a search for super cool travel money belts (those fanny-packs that go under your clothes). We ate Korean dinner and reminced about our favorite place to catch dinner in DC (Mandu). It is funny that BimBimBop should taste like home, but the dish contains happy memories of long dinners with good friends in the city where were first built a life together.
