Hey Everyone,
So i do not have internet in my apartment till tomorrow but I am at an internet cafe to give everyone a quick update. I am all moved in YAY! I live in an apartment with 3 other girls, they are amazing! We have a living room, kitchen, and each have our own rooms. It is great! We get along so so well and I am loving my living situation.
I start my intensive hebrew study tomorrow, 5 hours a day for 4 weeks. We have afternoons off so we have been planning to do some hiking and exploring. Its so beautiful here! We live on a mountian so its a bit chilly and very windy. We celebrated our first shabbat in Jerusalem, it was so great. We had a program dinner at a hotel nearby and then I had a shabbos lunch with a family near campus. It was delicious and then we took a long walk around town. The whole city basically shuts down for shabbos..we made a couple rookie mistakes about buying groceries in time, but we are learning. Every day is a new learning experience but we are getting better. I am understanding a lot of hebrew but not speaking very well.
Last night we went out in down town Jerusalem with some kids on our program. It was so much fun! Today is orientation---and then we are going to the shuk for some food.
Will update soon again once we have internet.
Love always
