an honest lifestyle
Less than a week left in Israel, and less than two weeks until Boston. Oh, Boston. My city, my home, my heart. If you’ve read my first few posts on this blog, you know how I feel about my hometown. I dedicated the first ever post to my city after the bombing, and how proud […]
Read MoreOne week left in Israel as of today. It’s surreal. I feel like I’ve just gotten here, and I’m about to pack up and leave again. My emotions are a jumble; I can’t imagine leaving my friends and my love, but Boston is calling to me. Israel is my homeland, but Boston is my home. […]
Read MoreAs of today, I have three weeks left in Israel. I can’t decide if I’m more devastated to leave, or thrilled to come home. I find the promise of family, friends, holiday cheer, and my own car and bed to be very alluring, but I can’t imagine leaving the people I’ve come to love here […]

Read MoreFirst week in Tel Aviv, first week at a new university… Obviously I have a lot to say. And I will say it. And you can feel free to read it, or not. But for the visual people who don’t want to peruse my ramblings, here’s a photo post about my first week in Tel […]
Read MoreBefore I talk about my week in the West Bank, I have a disclaimer: I don’t really partake in the West Bank settlements conflict. Not because I don’t have feelings about my country, rather, because I love Israel so much, and the number of problems it has makes me too emotional and upset. Between outside […]
Read MoreHi from Israel! This is my first post in over two weeks, but only because it’s been a crazy, transcontinental, time-shifting two weeks. The Sunday before last, I boarded a plane to London, had breakfast in London, and then boarded another plane to Tel Aviv only an hour later. Three continents in twenty-four hours. It […]
Read MoreHappy Fall, y’all. I’m in this weird limbo where I have to pack summery close for Israel, while the weather gets colder here. Very confusing. But here are some of my transitional favorit This fierce Forever21 tank My new favorite fragrance for fall and forever! It doesn’t hurt that Marc Jacobs fragrances have the cutest […]
