I’m happy to see the next edition of ‘Once In A Lifetime’ commencing very very soon! It’s called ‘Once In A Lifetime HD‘ and this time, world’s leading Instragramers will visit Israel on a 9 day, life-changing, once in a lifetime journey. I’m already high on nostalgia and can’t stop thinking about the magical trip I was a part of last year. This time, the ‘Stand With Us’ folks...

People! I’ve Been There! Done That! Yep! I’ve been to the ‘The Dead Sea’ and floated on saltiest water at the lowest point on the Earth! Sounds incredible? Well ‘incredible’ is a small word. The best way to describe the experience of visiting the Dead Sea is not to try to describe it and go there physically to experience it. Trust me, you have to visit the Dead Sea at least ‘Once In A Lifetime‘....

Boy! After having a great time in Tel-Aviv, our day #7 began with a visit to a Kibbutz. Imagine a colony of people who live together with a sense of equality – to the extent that they share cars, have exactly same houses and even share all of their income with the community. That is, if you make 20,000 shekels a month and live in a Kibbutz, you’ll have to share all of it to the Kibbutz. Every member family of Kibbutz shares their...

Ever since the organizers of the Once In A Lifetime 2.0 trip to Israel informed me that we’re going to get a chance to drive the electric cars developed by an Israeli company called “Better Place” – I was waiting for the opportunity. After visiting the Rogozin School in Tel Aviv, we headed to the Better Place. We were welcomed by the company representatives who escorted us to a tiny movie theater inside the campus. We...

The day #6 of our 11 day, Once In A Lifetime 2.0 trip to Israel began with checking out of the ‘Crowne Plaza’ hotel and clicking photos with the manager of the hotel. Remember the movie I briefly talked about in my earlier post? Yep, the movie titled ‘Strangers No More’. The movie is about a special school called “Rogozin School” in Israel. The film’s already won and Oscar for Best Documentary Short...

To Keren, Ori, Omri, Tomer, Yevgeni, Mor, Mayan, Maya, Maxim, Liora, Keren-Or, Ilya, Hen, Ephraim, Dov, David, Aviva, Anat and Jonny Shalom! Few weeks ago, I received an email from Ori introducing the ‘Once In A Lifetime 2.0′ project. At first, I thought it was just another mail and almost hovered the cursor over the ‘delete’ button. It seems that destiny had something great planned for me and I decided to read the mail...

This is my 5th day in Israel and because of the busy schedule and limited connectivity, I haven’t been able to update the blog as frequently as I thought I would. But that does not mean you’re going to miss out on any update. Touring The Beautiful City Of Haifa Haifa is an amazing city and really beautiful. The first day was actually a ‘rest’ day for me and Chris as the other bloggers arrived late. Omry decided to take...

The Once In A Lifetime 2.0 trip to Israel has began. Upon receiving invitation from the organizers of the trip, I started exploring Israel online – checking out videos on YouTube, reading articles on Wikipedia and the posts written by the bloggers who were on ‘Once In A Lifetime’ trip last year. I decided to come to the country with a blank mind. I did, because I am trying not to be a part of an agenda – as one of my...
