In preparation for our trip…

Today’s blog post comes from Jill H…

I am winding down my business activities this week, as I get ready to embark on my first trip to Israel and Palestine.  I spend 2-6 weeks every year in international travels, largely leading fellow textile collectors and aficionados.  This is my first trip to Israel and Palestine, and my first in a long time, going as a participant, not a leader.  I am very excited on so many levels:  1) experiencing a country with such diverse perspectives, and with such depth of history, 2) having the opportunity to share observations and learning with so many other people with whom I have no real history–no group think! 3) I am open to how this will be a life-changing experience for me.   I appreciate everyone’s involvement in shaping this upcoming trip–Dottie, Lamia, Sue, Mejdi team, and all the people (especially our CFP girls and staff) with whom we will meet!
