"There is nothing like living in Jerusalem", by Peta Jones Pellach

Jerusalem Western Wall and al-Aqsa Mosque

There is nothing like living in Jerusalem. As Nomi Shemer wrote, avir harim tsalul kayayin – even the air feels fresher. The buildings of Jerusalem stone glow in the sunshine. The skies are a special blue, even on a cold winter day. When it is hot during the day, relief comes with a cool breeze in the evening. So often, when I am walking the streets, I pinch myself and ask if it is true – do I really live here? Don't miss this report, a morning in the life of Peta Jones Pellach How can a place so special be “home”?
