“Having been on my own in Israel for two years , I have learned to understand more about my Jewish heritage. I have always been somewhat religious, but being there was a profound learning experience and a life turning moment. It was something about the land, the soil, the air, the people and the diversity. I felt connected and free. Things that mattered to me back home seemed trivial, whereas in Israel, I valued life more in the connectedness of people and in their struggles to preserve their identity.”
