Tel Aviv


Dutch Version:

Het wordt weer eens tijd om wat fotootjes up te loaden. Geen lange verhalen deze keer, gewoon een impressie van de laatste maand (of iets langer). Ik ga nog steeds 3 ochtenden in de week naar hebreeuwse les, werk een paar uur per dag als telemarketeer voor de nederlandse markt. Tussendoor maken we uitstapjes en we hebben in de maand april en begin mei zoveel joodse feestdagen, vakanties etc. achter de rug dat ik de tel een beetje kwijt was. Nu is het weer even rustig na de grote afsluiter van het 60 jarig bestaan van de staat Israel net bij ons om de hoek, groot feest!!!
Mijn visa aanvraag (voor werkvergunning etc.) is geweigerd omdat ik een lullig stempeltje miste op mijn geboortecertificaat dus dat was toen snel klaar, fuck zo blijf ik eeuwig telemarketeer hier. Maar niet getreurd want ik hoop volgende maand met wat vrienden een duik trip in de Rode Zee te maken. Zodoende moeten we naar Sharm El Sheik in Egypte en hoop ik gewoon weer een nieuwe touristenvisa te krijgen voor de laatste 2 maanden.
Ennnnnne........we hebben inmiddels besloten om in augustus terug naar Nederland te gaan. Michal gaat in Amsterdam fysiotherapie

English Version:

Yes, it's about time to upload a few more photos. No long stories this time, just an impression of the last months. I still go to hebrew school 3 mornings a week, work a few hours a day as a telemarketeer for the dutch market. In between we made several trips and we had a lot of jewish holidays, i lost track of which one is when to be honest. The final one was the best, the 60 year anniversary of the state of Israel, big party, just around the corner of our appartement was the epicenter on the big Rabin Square.
I am planning to do a diving trip in the Red Sea with some friends. We have to go from Eilat to Sharm El Sheik in Egypt and from there we wanna do a liveaboard trip for 3 or 4 days.
By the way, we are planning to go back to Amsterdam, Holland in august. Michal is gonna study fysiotherapy overthere and i think (well think, i have to) that i gonna start searching for a good old job at the bank?!
