Editor’s Letter December is the time winter sets in and the air fills up with holiday cheer and warmth, as Israeli cities gear up towards Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year’s, adorning their streets with lights and decorations. Haifa, Israel’s third largest city and home to Jewish, Arab Muslim, and Arab Christian communities, also holds its very own Festival of Festivals this time of year, making it the ideal moment to go explore its streets and alleyways, and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Perpetually evolving, Haifa offers not only a myriad events, tours, and markets, but also one of the country’s most vibrant food scenes, some its most innovative museums, and spectacular beaches. Jerusalem, Jaffa, and Nazareth are they too getting ready for the holidays, as special events take place all through

the month. In this issue, you’ll find our recommendations for what to see and where to go, and a glimpse into Israel’s booming wine bar scene, as more and more have been opening across the country in recent times, and our design section includes some beautiful hanukkiahs made by contemporary Israeli designers – the perfect gift for yourself or your loved ones. Also this month: an aperçu of the main local cultural events, a beginners’ guide to skiing, a brief overview of the hottest new hotel trend, the themed hotel, and a look into Tel Aviv’s trendy new co-working spaces, where start-uppers and entrepreneurs share not only elegantly designed work spaces, but their creative energy as well. Wishing you a pleasant read and a safe flight, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Christmas, and Happy New Year! Nava Marton

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.
