The Israeli guy is an absolute doll at 22yrs, he's like a kid in a candy store with all the pretty girls here. Our room is HUGE. We each have a good sized bed big enough for two people and we're only paying $3 a person a night, and this is right across from the Tourist police and a couple of blocks from the main square.

He's just out of the army, as are most of the Israelis here-you are required to serve 3 years in the Israeli army when you turn 18 (2 if you are female). There are so many Israelis here that people on the street will greet you in Hebrew when they want to sell something.. There are also signs everywhere in Hebrew. Went to a restaurant last night with him and I looked around and realized that I was the only non Israeli there. The waitress looked a little confused, but finally decided to give me the hebrew menu. I asked for the spanish one please. Grin. I think she was a bit thrilled that someone that spoke spanish was in the place.

Grin. He IS a doll. A bit little brother-ish and very travel smart. Of course being Israeli makes all the difference. Everyone gives them much cheaper prices for everything. Sometimes 30-50% less. Incredible. It's because there are so many of them. If you get in with the Israelis, then your business is always full. It's that simple.
