Hey everyone,
On June 24 I will begin my international study at Hebrew University, Jerusalem. I will be spending a month in Israel and thought that this blog would be a good forum to share my reflections, experiences, pictures and everything else to keep friends and family updated.
I am anxious and excited for this experience. As I have decided to focus my studies on Middle East culture, politics, and religion I hope that this experience with strengthen my interest and passion for this region. I want to gain a first hand understanding of the history and culture of this completely fascinating place.
I plan also to post on here essays and research papers of mine on the region, to give an overall sense for how my knowledge will grow and change.
in Peace
