For the next ten days I will be far from stylish; I'm going on an incredible FREE trip to Israel with an organization called Birthright. The lack of style comes from the outdoor adventure theme, so imagine lots of sweaty T-shirts and running shorts, and yes, even chocos. Worth it for a once in a lifetime chance to ride camels and float in the Dead Sea!
If you are even slightly Jewish (non practicing is fine, it's not a religious trip), and between the ages of 18 and 26, you should look into this amazing gift for yourself.
It's gotten off to a slightly rough start... Suffice it to say there was a strip search involved... But I'll choose to think of it as a VIP tour of the back rooms of the airport. Anyway, as I sit on the plane and awkwardly type this on my phone, I am flooded with excitement and gratitude. If I can, I will blog, but otherwise, I will see y'all on the other side of this grand adventure! Look out for recaps of my too-short time in NYC. Thanks for reading. Xoxo
