Kibbutz Neot Semadar |
Every year these communal areas open their arms to volunteers, allowing them to get a taste of the communal life for a minimum two month commitment. Volunteers work for their room and board and jobs typically include working in the kitchen (which is what I did), in the field or dining hall. For a backpacker, you get to see a different side of Israel that gets you close to nature and experience a different way of life.
As backpackers, we want to see the world on a shoestring and Israel is just the place to do that. All the sights and sounds of the Middle East are at your fingertips whether you choose to go down the hostel route, donate your time or have a kibbutz experience.
Head to the Holy Land and you’ll never look back – trust me!
