Attached is the picture I would like to submit for Israel through my eyes. The name of the picture is “Startling Israel” because I felt the whole trip was “startling” (amazing!). The country of Israel was startling in the sense that I was shocked to discover how different one small country could be in different places yet it is so easy to drive from one place to the other. For example, the bedouin tent was completely different than Tel Aviv but they were not very far from each other. I was also shocked to hear most people in Israel are not religious and being Jewish is more of a cultural thing which made me feel as though I could connect with the country more. Finally, the whole trip and experience was simply amazing every time I think about it I am startled. The picture was taken in Tel Aviv on the boardwalk which was my favorite place we went on the trip and the beauty of it startled me just as Israel did.
