The Idea Behind It All.......

People are curious to find out about other people: Who, What, Why, Where etc.
Mostly people are intrigued to know about things that are different than what they know or on the contrary they need affirmation of what they consider to be the norm.
Israel can be portrayed as a very intriguing place but Tel Aviv is the melting pot of it all.
Cultures, colors, religions, ages, sexy, fashion, forward, conservative, rich, poor, happy, sad, solders, etc all different people that express life and its meaning in very many different ways.

ShakShuka!

So much of Tel Aviv's live and individual culture lies in its atmosphere of the 'shuk', markets. There is a mix of all different identities in these markets and I cant forget to mention all the wonderful mix of food. Here in the Shuk HaCarmel right in the center of Tel Aviv you can find tourists looking for local culture and the locals looking for mouthwatering food and cheap underwear?

Special Venice Beach Edition!

The goal of my Blog is to show the different attitudes and self expressions of people in a given background. Upon walking around in Venice, i thought how there is no better example of freedom of expression (besides Harajuku Girls in Japan). Since I was in California, and not in japan or Tel Aviv this past month, I chose to give a little flavor of another culture so we can observe and compare:

Additional Special Entry Coming soon: Champs Elysees Paris, France
