• "Your dream has come true" • "Many people wanted to do the same" • "Aren't you afraid?" • "How do you gone to heat during the winter" • "You need to fix/do/paint/…" They are all wrong. My dream is just to enjoy my life, that they would be interesting and that I will exploit all the resource I got in me. For now I found all those in building the Inn and bringing tourist into the old city of Nazareth. When there will be 10 more guesthouses in the Old City, I'm not sure if I'll be around… There is nothing to fear but fear himself, forgot who said that but as true as ever. It's demanding constant work to keep the fear aside but it's something that one can deal with if he decides ... read more

It's been 3 months since the first guest stepped up the stairs of the Fauzi Azar Inn. Much has happened since, and is still happening, so I felt it's a good time to share with you the latest news from Nazareth. Please forward to as many people as possible. I appreciate it... ***Guests*** • The largest group thus far (17 people) stayed for 12 days. • We were overbooked for some of the time and used our neighbor’s - Ramzi - house • We reach both local Israelis and Tourists and we feel it is a great combination… • We are now preparing for hosting a 30-people group for 1 week seminar that will take place in mid September! • Guest Book: "Thank you for a much needed relaxed vacation. We enjoyed the Inn's peaceful vibes, ... read more

I hope this update will reflect the big things that are happening in my life at the moment, and they are big as you will soon read. Of course you will get the full update about the Inn's progress but I hope to start sharing my observation about what was happening so far and not just my "to do list" Are you ready? Ok I will open with the greatest news of all and it's that we (Shlomit & I, that's how we say it now days) are pregnant and will be parents in the beginning of 2006. Shlomit is feeling good most of the time, it is now the 17th week to the pregnancy and it's going to be a boy. We are both very happy and excited about the whole thing and can't ... read more

The last 5 weeks since my last update were the most intense and busy in my life so far. I'll start with the bottom line and then will try to go over the more interesting staff, what I achieved so far and the mistake that I've made. The Inn is running and open for guest!!! Less then 6 month ago I helped Tony in Buscot Station, New Zealand, and now I own my own guesthouse. I think it's amazing and I consider it as a miracle. I had 12 basketball players staying last week, including breakfast and it all went very well. Before I start I want to thanks Nitzan that built and design this website!!! I think he has done a great work in a short time and I just want to say huge ... read more

2 weeks since I last wrote but don't think I was doing nothing. I'll open with today great news. Odette gave me her word that the house is ours!!! I was so afraid to believe that this time it's for real but I guess it is! More then happy I feel ready. Ready to walk on this new path, ready to learn, experience and work as hard as I ever did. Tomorrow I'm going to Nazareth, first night in the house, first many things. In the last 2 weeks I met many untrusting people. Zammy, Noam & Amnon from www.hike.co.il forum. We hike 3 days in the Israeli desert. I met Marious who is the employer of 12,000 people around the world and is going to be the biggest employer in Nazareth. We see eye in ... read more
