For the 2006-2007 year, Danny Kalman, Ben David, Jamie Zebrak, and Troy Grudin made it to Israel to study abroad. We have created this blog to share Israel with friends everywhere, and especially with the community back in Oregon. Check our profiles to a more in depth explanation!

During the fall term the international school here hosted a talent show. I tried for a month to gather a small group to perform a salsa dancing routine. Finally, a week before the show I confirmed three other people - none of whom had much salsa experience. I choreographed a routine and, since our schedules all differed, taught it to each person individually. Two days before the show we found time to practice as a group. Everyone worked really hard and we got it down! We performed at the talent show and ended up winning! Here is the video.

The guy in silver is Jonah, who is a graduate student from New Mexico. We were roommates during the fall. I am in blue on the right. Jonah's partner is Florence, who is from Belgium and works in administration at the international school here. My partner is Leora, who is an undergraduate student and friend from the year.

Enjoy!
