glad to hear you will be visiting the country soon. can you spare a few bucks to tide me over during the slow season. tales of your generosity have followed you where ever you have traveled. monies returned at first opportunity. the dude abides.

Kol Hakavod - I am so envious of those people who know and can speak many languages and are so clever to boot. His mother must be very proud.

Visit our soldiers at their army bases too, when you come. Will benefit you greatly in really getting to know our country. Meet parents and grandparents of chayalim, olim chadasim and vatikim who have been here longer, in all the languages you are fluent in. Then you'll really be part of us. Maybe you'll encourage young members of your family to join the IDF, who knows... . We were all newcomers, and many of us now have soldier grandchildren speaking/understanding the languages you speak. Again, b'hatzlachah in every language.
