Israel is one of my most favorite countries in the world. It has a wonderful climate, Tel Aviv as the vibrant seaside city, Jerusalem as the historic city with so many stories, beautiful nature and even prettier people. And best of all: the food!

It’s too bad that there’s an ongoing conflict separating its inhabitants in Israel. It’s unlikely however you’ll notice anything of the conflict as long as you stay in the big cities or touristic areas.

On this page I’m sharing my travel blog to Israel with all my favorite sights, activities and restaurants.

 

Tel Aviv
You’ll probably start your trip to Israel in Tel Aviv. Tel Aviv is a vibrant city with a beach, boardwalk, many nice restaurants, bars and markets. Tel Aviv is a city where I felt right at home and I could imagine myself living there. The atmosphere is very relaxed and there are many creative people.
And there’s an extensive list of restaurants that serve delicious hummus!
 

Hummus in Tel Aviv
There are so many options for good hummus in Tel Aviv that it’s almost improssible to list them all. Just order your favorite variety with some pita bread and a salad and you’ll have a lovely lunch (or breakfast or dinner, as most of the hummus restaurants are open from early to late). The hummus in Israel is served luke-warm, as opposed to most European people who eat hummus cold.
