Birthright this winter
My sister and I have been planning for years to try and do Birthright together. After applying earlier this fall, we have been accepted to go this winter! We will be traveling to Israel between December 22 and January 1 through IsraelExperts.
Birthright is a program set up for Jewish young adults between the ages of 18-26 to go to Israel on a 10-day trip to experience the Jewish homeland. Although primarily for North American Jews, there are also groups of Jews that make the trips from other countries, including India, Australia, South Africa, and Uzbekistan. The trips occur in winter and summer, with over 35,000 young adults participating every year.

If you’re interested in visiting a kibbutz in the Negev, we’re going to be in Israel on a break from my Dhaka Fulbright Dec 15-Jan3. Let me know!
