Old City Sunset, Jerusalem, Israel
Al fresco, Jerusalem, Israel
Early last week I touched down from ten days in Jerusalem, with some hours in Tel Aviv. It was engaging, fattening and exhausting...

I ate a lot of fabulous food with the guidance of one very cluey local (hummus tour spanning the east and west of the city; the bakeries and delis of the ultra-orthodox Mea Sharim neighbourhood; interview with the editor of the country's premier food mag), met a horde of excellent people at the ROI conference (and did so much networking I might lock myself in a cupboard for a couple of weeks), stayed with and caught up with friends and family in between (always a treat and a pleasure).

I also met an excellent Brazilian with whom I'm discussing some sort of global Jewish cultural event in Melbourne, and I've returned full of ideas for a magazine with global Jewish content. So it's all good. There are plenty of pics to check out (there's a highlights gallery here), so I'll post a few more next time. Otherwise, it's great to be back; I hit the ground sprinting, with a whole bunch of things, about which I will keep you updated. There are also a bunch more PDFed articles to go on my website, and to be linked here. Ciao for now.
