If you're a former Mosh camper from OSRUI and have gone on Yam L'Yam, you and I both know that it's a complete Joke. Sure there are beautiful views along the trails, and the seas are fun to take a dip in, but you don't actually start from the Kineret, and you bike the last part, which with 85 people going 0.2 mph is so completely frustrating. Along the way, we slept on rocks, but with mats and in tents that were setup for us. We carried backpacks weighing less than 15 lbs. Sure we made our own food on the road, but at camp it was all matzah and chocolate. Now, I dont if you know anything about matzah besides the fact that it tastes like crap, but it's worse for you than bread, and does certain things to your digestive system that is making Tzuba this week a very stinky place. Our tour guide was pretty chill. I wont tell you his name, but our cheer was SHARK BAIT HOO HAHA and.... we found him..... Idea you can get from my tales: If you come to Israel for an extended period time, do Yam L'Yam, you get a certificate at the end.
I spent 2 days after Yam L'Yam in Haifa shopping around Druze villages and being stuffed into a room with 7 other girls with a desperate need to shower but only given cold water. I guess you could say I'm pretty happy to be back at Tzuba where there's real food, showers, and mattresses.
