Gabe Pransky

Where are you from?

Philly

Where do you currently live?

Efrat, Israel

What is your favorite place in Israel?

Machtesh Rimon at night. The stars are like a fireworks display.

What is a fun fact about yourself?

I am a citizen of the USA, Israel and Brazil, though I'm not even sure if it's legal for me to hold on to all three. I almost always speak English. My Hebrew is decent, but embarrassingly poor when you consider how long I have lived in Israel. I don't know any Portuguese (except some of my favorite foods).  

What are your words of wisdom for your future participants?

Shorashim is awesome for a lot of reasons, but everybody knows that the best part is doing a trip with Israeli peers completely integrated as participants in the trip. The Israeli and American participants develop the strongest friendships (or more-than-friendships) that forever connect them even across oceans.
