Israel is a country full of paradoxes. On the one hand there's a war every decade or so, the people are ill-mannered and loud, and the heat is unbearable six months of the year. On the other hand, you're perfectly safe strolling down the street alone late at night, the people are among the warmest and most caring you'll ever meet, and the summers are epic.
Visiting Israel, not to mention moving there, can be an overwhelming experience. Many foreign visitors and new immigrants are baffled or frustrated by one aspect or another of Israeli day-to-day life.
The aim of this guidebook is to provide insights, practical tips and assistance that will make it easier to adapt to, and get the most out of, life in Israel. You'll find this book indispensable, no matter if you're an immigrant or if you're just doing a temporary relocation or a year aboard at an Israeli university – or even if you're just curious about Israeli life and society in general.
