Well I made it to the campus after a 11 hour plane to Tel Aviv and a 30 minute bus ride from there to Jerusalem. We were welcomed to the campus with these words, "Welcome to M0unt Zion". Our campus backs up to the wall of the Old City of Jerusalem. The location is amazing and I have to say I can not wait to explore the many nuances of the Old City.
In total there about 45 students that live in this complex. I have two roommates in a room that looks like it can hold six at most. I have a lot of room and our door opens up into the campus garden. The grounds and the buildings are so beautiful and old. It feels like I not only traveled thousands of miles, but traveled through time.
Well after a sleepless night on an airplane I am pretty worn out but I will be sure to take pictures later because a picture is worth a thousand words and that would save me a lot of time writing.
good choice with the pictures... also, get fresh squeezed pomegranate juice!
