Shalom and welcome!
First question: why photos with stories?
Well, that’s because we are soul twins. One takes a picture, the other takes just one look at it and knows right away what the other twin is talking about.
It’s like wiping a dusty glass with your palm – and their smiles become clearer and clearer, and their names suddenly appear. And you can see the faces and hear the voices and the laughter. And suddenly you realize – there it is, their story, and there can be no other, because it’s alive and real, and it has already spread its wings.
Second question: why Israel?
Well, that’s not even a question! Because that’s where we live, and because we love this country madly and madly criticize it, too, and always root for it.
And we want you to cry and laugh and be sad and love with us. We will show you everything we love in Israel, everything that takes our breath away and makes our hearts skip a beat and plain makes us want to stand and watch and smile and squint and sigh, “Oh, Israel, my Israel!”
Well, let us finally properly introduce ourselves, dear guest!
Michael Berman – poetry is my soul, photography is my destiny, and my day job is IT manager (CIO)
I have successfully retired from a long business career and can finally dedicate myself to the things I love – which are photography and Israel, as you’ve already guessed, and of course, good food and a nice glass of wine in Shabbat, but who doesn’t like that!
Anna Kaz – a storyteller and philosopher by vocation, HR-manager by profession
(hey, we are all managers here, uh-huh, that’s right!)
Just like Michael, I really like good food, obviously, that’s another thing that connects us. I love my Israel, its cities, flowers and seas.
And I also love stories about people.
