Editor’s Letter

Fall is the season that invites us to reconnect with ourselves and with nature. In this issue you’ll find a series of fun ideas for what to see and do in Israel this time of year - a sunset walk along the country’s most scenic beach, a wine tasting tour in the Judean Hills, or perhaps a day trip exploring ancient burial tombs in the heart of a residential Ramat Aviv neighborhood. You’ll also find a fascinating interview with bassist Avishai Cohen, one of the most revered jazz musicians working today. He’ll be performing this month at the Red Sea Jazz Festival in Eilat. And as always, our magazine contains a selection of the month’s main cultural highlights, travel tips and recommendations, including the lowdown on all the new hotel restaurants that recently opened in Tel Aviv. Our main interview this month is with Montana Tucker, a Jewish-American

actress, singer, and social media influencer who became one of the most prominent pro-Israel advocates on TikTok. Since October 7 2023, she has transformed her platform of 14 million followers into a pro-Israel advocacy space, raising awareness about the situation in Israel. Her documentary, “The Children of October 7”, compiles the testimonies of several children survivors of the Hamas attacks, and is set to be broadcast on television channels across the world. We talked with her about her deep commitment to the State of Israel and her pledge to do everything she can to fight for the release of the hostages. We join her in calling for the release of the hostages - our thoughts are with them and their families, as we pray for their return.

Traveler’s Prayer May it be Thy will, Lord of Heaven and Earth, to lead us to peace and safety, to fly us in peace and safety to our desired destination, to find life, joy, and peace. Guard and watch us, we who fly the air pathways, cross the seas, and travel overland routes. Make firm the hands that guide the steering and sustain their spirit, so that they may lead us in peace and safety. For in You alone is our shelter from now unto eternity. The Lord bless thee, keep thee, the Lord make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee, the Lord turns His face unto thee, and gives thee peace. Amen.
