    I lived in Israel for about 3 years, before moving to the United Kingdom
    Pros:
    Very hot weather, my favourite. We don't get much heat in the UK
    Another pro is safty: the country was used to be vary dangerous due to terrorism attacks, but ever since the wars stopped, the country makes you feel like the world is in peace
    Cons:
    Weekends: you literally are locked at home, everything (except restaurants, hospitals and that stuff) is closed until midnight.
    - cost of living and extreme tax rate
    Do I even have to say anything? There's tax for everything in the country, the more you earn, you pay more, I know every country (excluding euro zone) uses a different currency with different inflation rates, but there is no reason to charge 45% more money on everything

United States is crumbling within. Losing our values and cultures in the USA with people forming their delusional identities which is corrupting America. Anyone has any information on how to become an Israeli or where I can start I would greatly appreciate the help and feedback thank you all so much! 🌞

    I've been in Israel (Haifa) 3 years ago while visiting my best friend. I really liked the nature! A lot of palms, sea, beaches and so on. The only one thing that was a bit difficult it's a language barrier. I was trying to ask the bus driver how can I get the place what I need but he didn't speak English at all!

    I lived in Jerusalem at Hebrew University in Givat Ram 50 years ago. But it is amazing how many of your comments are the same as they were then. Israel was much less developed then. But I walked home from the National Library when it closed at midnight - and felt perfectly safe. In the US I'd never walk at night in an American city. The driving- many less cars then, but it was known that Israeli drivers were wild on the road. As for transit, the buses in Jerusalem were convenient and came quickly to whisk me from Givat Ram to Har Hatzofim (Mt. Scopus). A pro is I came to Israel with basic knowledge of Hebrew and I only improved from determination to speak only Hebrew to Israelis. A con was that my Israeli flatmates were not interested in an American who wasn't planning to stay. You must be an army veteran to be taken seriously in Israel. Pro is how a small city like Jerusalem had its own symphony and a music academy that I enrolled in. Now there's much more of classical music, but it seems centered in Tel Aviv. I would not make aliyah then as I had to finish college. And now I have no family in Israel. It looks much more crowded, very much more. Israel was simple then, undeveloped. Now there are huge malls and crowds everywhere. Those are my pros and cons. Oh, the weather in Jerusalem is entirely different than in TA, and that has not changed. There is a real weather in Jerusalem, and in winter it is COLD, winter coat cold. And it rains 2 or 3 times a week and streets near me were covered in mud due to constant construction. Best of all - I developed Hebrew fluency, which I have maintained to this day because I love the language. That's the best part of Israel for me.

      Nooo LA doesn't even feel like a city. It's built for cars, not fot people. I have no idea how people who can't drive live there. Tel Aviv is wayyy more crowded.
      I took a taxi from LA train station to a hotel in LA. The driver eas driving and driving... He drove on highways... there were no buildings around. Could it be that we're still in the same city???
      Seriously, I began fearing I was being abducted, because the driver had an Arab name and I'm an Isfaeli Jew... but eventually it turned out to be just a crazy city 😆 .
      I must say that I know little about living in California (My brother used to live there but I was just visiting). But this difference is just huge.
      San Franvisco however, felt like a city. It felt European compared to LA and San Diego.
