Pesach!
The excitement leading up to Pesach here in Israel starts way before the holiday begins.
With spring cleaning underway, Seder preparations and school holiday beginning the week before, there’s a feeling that everyone is getting ready for Pesach together.
When Seder night arrives, the traffic begins as families and friends get together to celebrate (don’t forget, here in Israel we only have one Seder!).
Throughout the week, Israelis love to travel throughout the country and enjoy the perfect spring weather.
It’s a special time of year and this month, we’re bringing you the best of Pesach here in Israel.

What is women’s empowerment in here in Israel? It’s women skyrocketing to new heights in business, the army, and in society in general. It’s women supporting one another to be anything and everything they want to be, shaping the future of Israel. Women’s empowerment is also looking at the darker side of things: the areas in which women are still struggling in our culture and identifying areas for improvement. This month, in honor of International Women’s Day, we’re diving into all aspects of women’s empowerment here in Israel.

We love to celebrate the beauty of Israeli nature all year long, but the ultimate highlight is in January, the month when we celebrate Tu B’shvat.
