Unique and Shayna share their aliyah insights, tips, and experiences for a smoother landing and integration for new and future olim.
Who We Are
Who We Are
Unique and Shayna are Anglo ex-pats who made aliyah from California and Texas, and ended up as neighbors in Tzfat. As we navigate this foreign world of prickly but sweet "sabras" (the word for both cactuses and native Israelis) we are paving the way through our own hard-learned lessons so that you can go beyond the culture shock and integrate into your ancestral yet brand-new homeland with fewer bumps.
Our Vision for this Project
Our Vision for this Project
We aim to provide information regarding common questions and concerns that arise for new and prospective immigrants, especially those in the Tzahar periphery region of Northern Israel (Tzfat, Hatzor, Rosh Pina, and surroundings).
Follow us on YouTube and Facebook for insightful videos, helpful posts, and the latest news so that you can settle smoothly.
Welcome, neighbor! We're on this journey together...
