Israel Through the Eyes of Joey

Joey Khankhanian

Last summer, I was signed up to go on birthright. Unfortunately, my parents made me cancel, which I wasn't happy about at the time. Now, I am so happy that I didn't go last year because I got to experience Israel through Shorashim!

These ten days have honestly been some of the best days of my life and it wouldn't have been possible without Shorashim. My favorite day was when we went to the Western Wall in Jerusalem. The wall made me feel so proud to be a Jew. Not only did it make me proud, but it made me closer to all my friends on the trip. I know for a fact that I will be good friends with these people forever and it is all because of the energy that the wall creates. I am so thankful to say that this was the birthright trip I chose. I will never forget this trip and it is all thanks to Shorashim!
