🇮🇱 Explore Israel | Travel Guide and Photography Journal
Welcome to my Israel Travel Guide — a personal collection of favorite moments, breathtaking locations, and stories captured through the lens of my camera.
This trip was incredibly special: it was not only my wife Leza’s and my very first trip abroad together, but it also came just about a year after we first met.
Traveling across Israel, exploring ancient cities and sacred places, and experiencing new adventures side-by-side made it a journey we’ll never forget.
We also had the chance to travel with Leza’s father and his wife while in Israel, spending a few amazing days sightseeing and sharing memories together as a family.
Along the way, Leza — the heart and inspiration behind so many of our adventures — helped plan and guide our journey through historic cities, sacred sites, and natural wonders that continue to leave us amazed.
Each blog post below offers not just photography, but personal experiences, insider tips, and practical advice to help you plan your own unforgettable trip.
🗺️ I’ve also created a free interactive Israel Travel Map featuring all the places we've visited — making it even easier for you to explore, plan, and be inspired!
