When I came to Israel, I thought that that the hardest part would be the basics. Learn Hebrew, get a job, find an apartment. But that's the easy part.​The real struggle is all those little things you can't exactly find through a Google search. ​Like how to figure out if that guy you just met is trying to date you, or just sleep with you. (Usually the latter).​ Or what to do if you find a stray dog at an army base and kind of want to keep it. ​Or how to navigate making and losing new friends, making dentist appointments, and building furniture all by yourself. ​This is the space where I share all that.
