Israel is not far away

In this electronic age Israel is as  close as your phone or the internet.  Jessica and her mother talk on the phone and text.  We visited on Skype a few days ago.

No, Israel is a long way from home  -- you can''t hug or even touch.

Jessica is happy with the way things are going, especially making friends.  Her greatest problems are language and transportation.  Each one builds on the other,  leading to being stranded at times, looking for a bus or taxi.

Jessica will be living and teaching on a farm the next two weeks.  She is looking forward to spending her nights in a cave, built to protect the inhabitants from attacks from overhead.
