"It wasn’t just the counselors that made the experience great, it was the activities that we did. The places we went and the things we saw were exquisite. Just to have toured in Israel would have been nice, but I also made great new friends, learned many new things about Israeli history, got to interact with other Israelis and other foreigners and I still got to tour the country. After having gone on the Tzofim Keshet trip, the only complaint that I have was that it was not long enough."
