Israel & Palestine



As part of our KaosPilots training we went on an 'outpost'. We decided that our destination would be Israel & Palestine, and that we would be working on 'community building'. The first weeks in Tel Aviv were full of lectures and meetings. From there we spent a month in Jalquamus, a tiny village near Jenin. The last month we split into smaller groups. I was in Mitzpe Ramon, in the middle of the Negev desert, on the edge of a Makhteshim crater. An intense three months!
