Last week I finally got to Holon to check out the new Design Muesum. I’d first read about it in Time Out Israel (quite possibly my favorite magazine series of all time) over a month ago, so it was nice to finally check out the museum. The exhibit, titled “Toyko Fiber, Senseware,” was mostly about …
Adam
A lame attempt as part of the Hipsters Around the World series on travelsofadam.com. Haifa is Israel’s 3rd (or maybe 4th…I’m not sure) largest city.

Flamingos, whales and profanity—oh my! Today. Down by the river. In Sevilla. I stumbled across blocks and blocks of pretty amazing graffiti.
Alright. I figure it’s about time I released my tentative itinerary for my adventure around the world.
