Hayley Nagelburg '15 (Hagalil)

Israel, to me, has always been associated with my being Jewish. The three trips I have taken have been for Jewish observances with family or with my school (a Jewish day school). The experiences and memories I have with Israel all tie in to my Jewish roots- whether it be a Friday night service at the western wall or a Pesach Seder with the family I barely knew - when I think of Israel I think of my Jewish identity.
