IsraeLife

come back Home IsraeLife is an organization aiming to show you that making Aliyah is not as crazy as you might think.

Making friends, serving Israel, going to college (in english or hebrew), getting an apartment, or where to get the best falafel is all very stressful, we know, but also totally 150% doable. Whether you are staying in Israel after your gap year or thinking of dropping out of YU or Queens (are there even other colleges in chul?) to come to the Holy Land, we are here to help you every step of the way.

Buying or even just renting a home in Israel is something Jews dreamed about for thousands of years and can finally do again.

Sometimes I think about how many generations prayed toward this land, longed for it, cried for it, and never got the opportunity to actually build a life here.

And now we argue over paint colors here. We complain about mortgages here. We raise children here. We hang mezuzot on our own front doors here.

I really believe that any opportunity to own, rent, or simply live in the Land of Israel is thousands of years of Jewish dreams coming true in real time.

Maybe that’s why even the stressful parts feel meaningful.

Does this officially make me an influencer now?

Living in Israel changed my perspective on a lot of things. Including this.

There’s way less pressure here to look “perfect.” People care more about building a life, raising families, community, purpose. And weirdly, I think that made me feel more comfortable doing something for myself without shame attached to it.

Not to become a different person. Just to feel a little more like myself.

So here’s your sign to stop caring so much what other people think and do what feels right for you 💙

Recently someone asked me not to use the term “Diaspora” because they found it offensive.

At first I didn’t really understand that because diaspora literally just means Jews living outside of Israel.

But then I started thinking about the actual meaning of the word.

Diaspora means dispersion. Scattering. Exile from homeland.

And maybe the reason it can feel offensive is because it’s inherently describing something tragic.

My parents are incredible people who could never imagine their only daughter would move thousands of miles away from them.
I am so thankful to them for instilling me with Jewish values strong enough to make this move.
But the story doesn’t end there. The real miracle happens almost 10 years later….

I still remember sitting there shaking while my rabbi made the call.

I genuinely thought my entire future was about to be decided in that moment. I had signed papers promising my parents I would come back from Israel. First after seminary. Then after Shanah Bet. I thought maybe I had made a commitment I was now obligated to keep forever.

And then the rabbi on the phone said something that completely changed my life.

People keep waiting for me to become miserable in Israel.

For the excitement to wear off.
For the “real life” part to hit.
For me to stop getting emotional over Hebrew street signs and train stations and stupid little grocery labels.

But years later, I still look around sometimes in disbelief that this is my actual life.

Maybe gratitude and perspective really do change what feels difficult.

One thing I think some Americans misunderstand about Israel is that Judaism here is not just a religion. It’s the atmosphere.

Even if your child ends up less religious than you imagined, they are still growing up inside a Jewish country, speaking a Jewish language, living on a Jewish calendar, surrounded by Jewish history, Jewish holidays, Jewish values, and Jewish people.

In America, Judaism often feels like something you add onto life.
In Israel, it is life.

Saying that Israel is like family is actually such a cliche but the more I ride the train and the more of Israel and her people that I see, the more I truly feel it.

I am such a big believer that Hashem decides your parnasah, your fertility, and your spouse more than ANYTHING. I think it’s so crazy that we think otherwise.
Yes you have to do your hishtadlut, you have to put in the work, but living in Israel, you are definitely doing that.
