Wolf Spiders and Buddhist Compassion
A wolf spider in one’s room can be a challenging experience, but between my Hindu landlady and Tushita Buddhist Center I got a mini enlightenment on how to tackle it.
The Israeli Phenomenon in India, Part 2 – Tushita Meditation Center
Israelis in Tushita Buddhist Meditation Center, Dharamkot, are over-represented 63 times over the other 11 leading countries of students origin. Tushita offers 10-day silent retreats, short courses and drop-in meditations.
The Israeli Phenomenon in India, Part 1
Israelis desert their homeland for the High Holidays. Warmed relations with Saudi enable air carriers to fly direct, shrinking the continent for the India-bound Israeli. And the crowd is not what you think…
The Big Israeli Escape
This year, statistics show that, on average, every Israeli will travel out of the country. Many go to India.
Hair Galore
The general talk about hair and age is demoralizing and most of it is not based in facts. Taking good care of your hair, even dyed hair, can keep your hair growing and shiny. I offer tips, advice and an apology to hairdressers

Route 90 and the Israeli Driver
Route 90 is one of the most beautiful scenic routes in Israel, but poses an immense challenge for the best of Israeli drivers, and most of us are far from best… The bulk of the road is still a 2-laner, carrying salt trucks from the Dead Sea, car carriers from the Eilat Port and the usual load of impatient Isreli drivers. This can be a recipe for trouble.

Doomsday Preppers, Cumbre Vieja, and Israel’s Mamads
As American doomsday preppers prepare for the apocalypse or the mega-tzunami, Israelis put their trust in the Mamad, or protected space. As to the “rest of the world”…

Timely Considerations
Help!!!
Time is killing me
One minute at a time
And nobody comes to my aid.
All manuals fail,
Parents aren’t here to kiss it better
Nine Lives
Look at the dead cat’s body
Sprawled on your neighborhood street
For ten minutes.
Look straight
Don’t blink.
American Skies
I like to be
Stranger in a Strange land
Like to not be
where you are from
where I’m from
Not belong
an Other

Galleries
Since a big part of this website is dedicated to world traveling, this collection of photo galleries is focused on the beauty, variety and creativity of the Land of Israel. An emphasis on the desert will soon be balanced with more pictures from the North and Center.
