Beit Canada

The date of our flight is getting closer and closer. As of now we are registered to stay in Beit Canada, an absorption center in Jerusalem. It's in a neighborhood with a lot of other olim, lots of friends of ours, and it's near my sister. We will save money and be near lots of support. We can look for a better apartment while we are there. I just wish I knew what it looked like. Any feedback would be nice. Or if you have a place for us to live, we could do that too. I suppose as we clear out the stuff in our current house, housing in Israel will also fall into place.

Along those lines, we are debating if we should send a lift now, or store it by my parents and send it when we know where we are going to live. That way we can buy appliances to ship also. On the other hand, it means we'll be without our current items for longer. So many things to ponder. Any advice will be appreciated.

On the positive side, packing is happening. Also, and this is amazing, we have gotten so many calls and emails of other olim offerring help. I think it's great how people want to help other people make it in Israel.

We can't wait until we're there to help others too. So come jon us. We'll help you out.

Until next time,
Yoram
