Get ready to get intimate with Israel and discover the ins and outs of life in Israel, from what it’s like to raise a family in a country that’s under constant threat to the financial struggles of buying a home and even cottage cheese. In this podcast, I’ll take you on a tour and introduce you to the unsung heroes that make us proud to be a part of something so special. What makes me qualified to do this? Having served in the IDF as a lone soldier and having planted my kids in Israel 8 years ago on my resume.
