My Last Day in Tel Aviv: Breaking in this summer’s LWD!

As I’ve mentioned in past posts one of the best traveling decisions I made on my recent trip to Israel was to change my flight, extending my time.

My most recent trip to Israel and my time spent in Tel Aviv during this week’s elections further served to open my eyes to what Israelis, especially young Israelis are facing every day.

Here we go! So far… one of the safest places on earth…

Hey there! Blogging from King David’s Lounge at JFK and so excited to announce my next ‘N A Perfect World adventure.

One guy even saying, “I get it… I have a Jamaican mother in law…” להתראות

What’s Your Perfect World, Conr? – Travel Diary, South Africa

It didn’t take long for me to realize that Conr is as kind of a soul as he is remarkably handsome and after seeing these photos from his time in South Africa, really talented. Where in South Africa exactly? “Capetown, Blouberg, Veldriff, George, Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, Gans Baai, Durban, Camps Baai, Boulder Beach, and everywhere in between.”
