Hebrew below.

How can you think every single day about people you’ve never met in your life?
There hasn’t been a single day in the past two years that we haven’t thought about the hostages and their families.
In moments of joy, sadness, and in everyday life, they have always been in our thoughts.

There isn’t a person in Israel who doesn’t personally know someone, or someone in their close circle, who was murdered, kidnapped, or injured on October 7th.
It’s an event that affected every home in this country, so what I wrote at the beginning isn’t entirely accurate.
Even if we never met the hostages in person, we are all connected to one another forever.

We hope everything will soon come to an end peacefully, that the hostages will return home as soon as possible, that the survivors will be able to rebuild their lives, and that the fallen will be laid to rest in Israel.


איך אפשר לחשוב כל יום על אנשים שלא פגשת בחיים?
אין יום בשנתיים האחרונות שלא חשבנו על החטופים ועל משפחותיהם. ברגעים השמחים, העצובים וסתם בשגרה, הם תמיד היו במחשבותינו.


אין אדם בישראל שלא מכיר מישהו באופן אישי או במעגל השני שנרצח, נחטף או נפצע בשבעה באוקטובר. זהו אירוע שפגע בכל בית במדינה הזאת ולכן מה שכתבתי בהתחלה לא מדוייק. גם אם לא פגשנו את החטופים באופן אישי, כולנו קשורים אחד לשני לתמיד.


אנחנו מקווים שהכל יעבור בשלום ונראה כמה שיותר מהר את החטופים בבית. החיים לשיקום וחזרה לחיים, והחללים לקבורה בישראל.

October 7th

How can one even write about such a day?
The day when time stood still. For some of us, it stopped forever.
We share in the grief of the families who lost their loved ones on that terrible day and in the war that followed.

There isn’t a single day when we don’t think about the hostages in Gaza.
They have been in a place for two years now where every second is hell.
We are waiting to see them home as soon as possible and send our love to their families.

איך אפשר לכתוב בכלל על יום כזה? היום בו הזמן עצר מלכת. לחלקנו הוא עצר לתמיד. אנחנו משתתפים בצער המשפחות שאיבדו את היקר להם מכל ביום הנורא הזה ובמלחמה שבאה בעקבותיו.



אין יום שבו אנחנו לא חושבים על החטופים בעזה. הם נמצאים כבר שנתיים במקום שכל שנייה בו הוא גיהנום. אנחנו מחכים לראותם כמה שיותר מהר בבית, ושלחים את אהבתנו למשפחותיהם.

In our latest video, we visited the incredible Keren Or Farm, a sanctuary for over 450 animals rescued from abuse and neglect. This farm is not just a home for animals; it’s also a place of healing for people. Survivors of the Nova festival and others facing challenges come here to care for the animals, creating a beautiful bond that helps them heal.

This visit was especially moving as we heard the story of Hilly Solomon, the founder’s sister, who was murdered on October 7th at the Nova music festival. In her memory, the farm continues to spread love, resilience, and hope.

Israel and all of us are going through difficult days.

We recently tried out a really cool photography experience. We visited a self-portrait photo studio in Tel Aviv called UU. The concept is unique: a room with a large mirror, behind which is a professional camera that you control with a remote.

The studio space is well-designed, with tailored lighting and enough room to move around comfortably. We enjoyed the pictures so much and were pleasantly surprised by their quality.

What we loved most about UU was the privacy and freedom. It was a fun experience for us as a couple, but we could see it working well for individuals or small groups.

Thanks to UU for providing us with a memorable and enjoyable photography experience!

As a special bonus for our community, they offer a 25% discount on photo sessions at UU studio.

On Saturday, 10/07/2023, members of the murderous Hamas organization broke into Kibbutz Nir-Oz. They massacred the kibbutz members; looted the houses and burned them. The brave survivors left their homes destitute, without anything. Many members lost their lives; the fate of tens of hostages is unknown; the kibbutz is totally destroyed. Nir-Oz community needs your help. Every donation will help restore the homes and support the kibbutz members. Thank you. my.israelgives.org/en/fundme/kibbutzniroz
