I am writing to share my experiences during my 10 month adventure in Netanya, Israel as an Israel Teaching Fellow. I will be in Israel from August 26th, 2012 - June 27th, 2013 (potentially longer).

JOSE DELA CRUZ I PRAY AND LOVE TO SEE THE LAND OF ISRAEL ONE DAY. I AM A HISTORY TEACHER AND NEVER BEEN OUT OF MY COUNTRY TO EXPLORE AND HAVE A FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE OF PLACES I AM SHARING WITH MY STUDENTS? SOUNDS PATHETIC BUT TRUE. THAT IS WHY I AM TRYING SAVE TO RAISE SOME FUNDS TO EXPERIENCE SOME EXPOSURE IN THE FUTURE.
