A few days ago I wrote about the Toyko Fiber Senseware exhibition at the Design Museum in Israel (Holon, Israel, to be specific). What I purposely neglected to mention was the architecture of the Israel museum itself. Absolutely stunning. Like most museums (in Israel, or elsewhere), the building itself is a design exhibit. Under construction …
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 …
One of the benefits of this blog being titled “Travels of ADAM” means I can post whatever I please. Because this is my travel adventure and you get what you get! So that’s why you’re getting a post about my new haircut. Are you excited yet? Getting a haircut while traveling I think this may …
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. (Actually, defining an Israeli’s city size is a complicated, political affair—one I don’t really want to get into.) Well, whatever. It’s a big city and it’s in northern Jerusalem where …
I like being here. I really do. Without sounding too naive (or optimistic?), it really feels like there is a lot happening here. Maybe this is just the first time I’ve been so aware of what’s actually happening here (it is). Maybe this is just the first time I’ve really been able to dedicate any …
Every Thursday there is an interactive discussion among the travel community—Travelers’ Night In (read more & a round-up here). This week’s discussion on “paying it forward” got me thinking. And seeing as how you’re an audience, I thought I’d just share my random thoughts. Like or dislike, this is my blog. I was never actively …
So, remember how I’m now doing a brief stint with a nonprofit here in Tel Aviv, Israel? Well, this is the very first time in my semi-adult life that I’m technically living somewhere I’ve never lived before, somewhere where I don’t know a single person. I wanted to do this earlier in my life but …
Well hello there. I’ve been a bit absent, haven’t I? I figured I better update you on my recent happenings. I’m at a crossroads in my big trip and an update is in order. Here’s a hint: it involves a summertime internship. In Tel Aviv. That’s in Israel. I arrived in Israel exactly 3 weeks …
Dear YOU, I haven’t written a rambling post in a while (uh, ever?) and I’ve been up to a lot in the past few weeks. I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to cover but I’m just going to write write write. And if you like, you can read read read. Where should I …
