After much consideration, I’ve decided to create this blog to keep track of my year abroad. My name is Rachel and I am a member of Masa’s Israel Teaching Fellow program.
That’s me on the right. On the left is Ellie, my roommate. We’ve known each other for 6 years now and I couldn’t be more happy that she pushed me to start this crazy journey.
I’m living in Rehovot, Israel and there are 25 other fellows along for the ride. Here’s a picture of the gang during a water hike on our first full day in Israel. It was a small river that empties into the Jordan River. It is in the north part of the country near the Sea of Galilee.

During the next ten months I will be teaching English to middle school kids. It’s going to be an adventure for the books and I hope that you are all excited to join me for the ride!
