Went out to a big club in Tel Aviv on Monday. Absolutely packed, huge line, hard to go in. Everything else at the port was also full. On a Monday.
Got back to Tel Aviv from Jerusalem last night at 3 AM. Coffee shops and bars everywhere were open. People walking the streets. Stores open. On a Thursday morning, at 3 AM.
Walking around town today at about 4 PM. There’s people everywhere. Restaurants packed. People walking the street. Malls full.
Does anyone ever work in this city? Or are they just sitting around in coffee shops at all hours?
I’m in Jerusalem right now. The first part of my trip is almost over (the part with the group).
On Monday morning we are officially done after we drop everyone off at the airport. What I’ll be doing the next week is not yet totally decided but I have many ideas. I should have better access to the Internet then and I will try to upload some photos.
It’s now time to dust off my old yet considerable skills as a madrich as I’ll be leading a Birthright trip to Israel, organized by Israel Outdoors.
The trip is 10 days long and hits all major landmarks after which I’ll stay in order to visit friends and family. It will be the longest vacation I’ve taken since I started working, and it will be weird being away for so long.
If you are in Israel and want to meet up, do let me know. If you want me to eat a shawarma in your name, please deposit NIS 15 in my PayPal or bank account and I will gladly do so.
It’s been quite a journey. This is the 500th post to The Marcos Kirsch Experience®. Looking forward to another 500 random, pointless, eclectic, poorly redacted entries.
Today, on my way back home from work, I took a different route as usual through houses instead of the bigger roads. I saw a guy walking his pet, a small pig, on a leash. I didn’t get his picture so I’ll have to take the same route everyday until I see him again.
Last polla winner has invited a bunch of us (interested? leave a comment) to join an ESPN Fantasy League for the Euro.
I tried joining, but apparently the internet has finally caught up to me and they have me flagged me as a filthy word. I called customer support and they verified that I’m filthy. In order to play, I need to come up with a fake user name and last name. I’ll make sure to teach them a lesson and come up with something truly filthy, like “poo” or “vomit” or “dirt”.
