SHALOM from ISRAEL

I lived most of my life in Israel, on it's northern part. I was infected by the traveling virus, immediately as I went on my first trip (so many years ago).Till now, I collected all my memories in nice organized albums. It's great that I can share it now with all of you :-))

My hometown is HAIFA , and although I've never experienced it as a tourist, I would love to help you enjoy it. So, if you have any question about it, don't hesitate, to ask.

He who travels virtually has no inconveniences

South Africa - October 2005
It would have been a wonderful trip,
if we wouldn't have been mugged - with knives - in Pretoria.
I'll put up the South Africa page slowly in the next coming weeks

Autumn In Croatia 2004

Autumn at Plitvice

"It is not enough for a landscape to be interesting in itself. Eventually there must be a moral and historic interest." Stendhal

We spent a beautiful week in the western arm of Croatia (with a quick pick to the cave in postoina, Slovenia). Autumn is a magical season, and the green yellow red colors of the tree with the blue turquoise colors of the lakes of Plitvice the blue grey colors of the Adriatic ocean and rust red colors of the roofs everywhere created a wonderful symphony of colors.

GREY Glacier in Torres del Paine

Spirit of place! It is for this we travel. Alice Meynell
We visited Tiera del Fuego and Patagonia, on February 2004. On the way home, back to the northern half of the globe, we stopped at the Iguassu (or Iguacu) falls, and topped everything with the Carnival in Rio. What an adventure!!

Most travel is best of all in the anticipation or the remembering; the reality has more to do with losing your luggage."
- Regina Nadelson

We Visited SCOTLAND on June 2002. Started in Glasgow, went up north through the Island of Skye, to Cape Wrath. and south through FIFE to Edinburgh. The weather was awful, it was raining most of the time, but we didn't let it spoil our fun.
We found the Scots to be very warm and welcoming people.

Fiji - The Magical Island

Our Malamala tribe

A good holiday is one that is spent among people whose notions of time are vaguer than yours.
J. B. Priestley

One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things." -- Henry Miller
We spent one whole Sabbatical year in VICTORIA B.C. on Vancouver Island. We traveled the whole island back and forth and collected many memories and pictures. I'm glad I can share them with you
