The first week I travelled in Israel I was surprised in many ways. There were so many things I did not expect that I decided to write them down. I love going to a country without any expectations, because those who have can only get disappointed. There are some vital things to know before you travel to Israel that I think would be handy to know.

If you are looking for a unique experience then you should consider a trip to this country full of contrasts. In May 2017 I was able to visit Israel and had such amazing experiences that I could come up with a ton of reasons why you should also travel to Israel. Like everywhere else there are also a couple downsides which I discuss at the end of the article. In my Israel Travel Guide I give you an inside of things you should know before your Israel holiday, because not everything is what is likes in this beautiful but sometimes crazy destination in the Middle East.

Traveling is always fun, even when it is not funny! I try to keep on telling this to myself even in the worst moments when everything seems to fall apart. Leaving Sydney after I resided there for almost 5 months already made me a little sad. But when I landed in Hong Kong after a shit flight with Qantas and found a message request in my Facebook inbox I thought damn this day cant get any worse. But yeah I definitely could, when I received a message on the plan just before I was about to land in Israel, country number 78.
