So going to Morocco gave me the travelling bug and since I got back I just wanted to go on another holiday…so I spontaneously booked a short trip to Israel-Palestine. It was a great plan as my sister was working over there at the time. I really enjoyed my time over there but at the same time it was sad seeing how segregated the Israelis and Palestinians are because of the ongoing conflict. Personally I think it is such a shame children grow up in a country where it is the norm to see soldiers with guns everywhere and also that they may just be taught to hate each other and not to respect each other. On the positive side, I got to teach kids art at a refugee camp and also witness what life is realistically like for both Israelis and Palestinians. It is also a very beautiful country which I hope to visit again soon :)
