By Holly Bezinovich

The part that sticks out the most was the immediate closeness I felt with a land that is so far away from where I was born. Growing up in temple, I heard multiple times that our holy land will always be our true home though listening to those stories I never believed it. But from the first day there, I immediately felt welcomed and in love with the vast variety of land. I know that I could always jump in a plane and immigrate there to loving arms. I also love how innovative Israelis are no matter what resources they have available to them. Even in the desert they are planting flowers and food, building communities, as well as creating an efficient and affordable desalination method to not only solve all of Israel's water needs but as well as the many places in the world that water is scarce. Israel is making what was once an empty canvass that was thought to be wasteland into a blooming sanctuary.
