Seeking to Serve* I have been watching your videos for a while now. Do you have information about making Aliyah that you would care to share with those who are interested?
Loved watching this, I was born in Beit shemesh , raised in nyc and now in phoenix Arizona in the community where efriam is from. Loved seeing my home, would love to see more and maybe god willing move back one day.
What a surprise to find this video. Chag Sameach dear neighbor from the beautiful bet shemesh Gimel. Just 1 minute from the merkaz. Lots of Anglo people here. ( Not me) I’m from Mexico.) if I see you in the street I’ll stop to say hello. Maybe in halal a bait..or in Bet Abaye. Anyway Chag Sameach. I’ll suscribe to your Chanel.
I am a senior I'm living in Brooklyn but I have family in Kfar Tapuach! Your community looks beautiful. Can a moderate income afford an apartment there? Rental not buying
Yeah, my daughter lives in Beit Shemish, Son lives in Ramat B.S. alef, and other daughter lives in Karme Gat. They say to rent first before you decide to buy a place as you want to know if it's right for you. Also, if you have children you need to consider schools. You need to consider if you would fit in. I live in a mostly Israeli area but I have made friends, acquaintances you might say. It may seem strange but I find it's more real, I feel this is my home in Israel and now I would feel living back in US would be completely weird, I prefer Israel.
Can you video the areas of houses .... Just wondering what they look like in Ramat Bet Shemesh. And what kinds of things to.do. for boys ages 13 11 9. My boys love basketball. Any basketball places
I choose to believe in Hashem. Too much weird shit to not count G-d out. Trivial example: I was looking at folding bikes for a while. Was considering a Brompton but they're $1200 for the base model. I look, on a whim, at a local used bike place (non-profit, donates bikes to poor/homeless, bikes for kids, takes donations from people who donate their old bikes, call it a "bike kibbutz") and they'd just gotten in, that very day, a folding bike. They wanted only $100. I paid on the spot and a couple days later took public transpo to go pick it up. Hashem wants me to have a folding bike? Maybe!
If I can make aliyah, I will not be able to move into such a luxe place. I'll be renting a single room, or some tiny place maybe with no shower and I have to use the local bath house or some shit. I've lived in Silicon Valley for a long time now and at times with no running water, crapping in a coffee can (it's an art) and so on. I don't think there's anything Israel could throw at me as a poor person that would make me blink.
We're thinking about coming back to E"Y. But the biggest problem is to choose the city and the community, to not be alone as we've been after our aliyah to Nahariya. We've been in Bet Shemesh but not understand the city vibe and structure at all. There's no info we found about places to visit. It was just kind of travelling ut the mountain and we were not aware about the right neighbourhood we're in (Aleph, Bet, Gimel). Can you give us some tips? as for a family with small kids, we're thinking about Netanya, Yerushalaim and may be Bet Shemesh. Can you give your impression and more details about living in BS?
Hey so I will definitely be making more videos about Bet Shemesh in the future. You can also send me an email at jerusafilm@gmail.com and id be happy to try to give you some guidance if I can
beit shemesh is amazing with probably more affordable housing than jerusalem. Calm with clean infra. I love netanya but would skip with a family. Jerusalem is also amazing but it's a big city
Is it unusual or difficult for an older (60 yr. plus but look younger) single, professional (Ph.D & two MAs) to make Ailyah to Israel? I don't have $ to retire, and I would still need to work. Is it feasible to move from America to Israel when you have a lot of valuable things (artwork, antiques, etc.)? I think it would be daunting to move to Israel solo without any family for friends in Israel. Someone mentioned a kibbutz, so I could integrate into a readymade community, but I am not sure about not owning anything. i wouldn't live near a border of an Arab country. I have dreamt about moving to Israel since the 1990s, but I was told years ago that people move when they are young (20s) or retirement-not 40s. All the videos never address other age groups-just young families.
You can rent a place and it's cheaper than a big city in US renting. My Son, it took him several months but he found a job that was on line helping doctors. My daughter in law has been going to school part on line and part in Jerusalem for therapy work. Soon she will do this and get paid. Slowly slowly. Someone lives near one of my daughters and they make pickles and stuff and made a business out of it. You don't live with so much material goods and life style like in the US. The decorations are sefarim.
@@bookmouse2719, Shabbat shalom, I'd love to be in touch with you. I've been thinking Aliyah for most of my life, the community shown looks absolutely beautiful, I have a daughter in Kfar Tapuach, but I need something financially feasible for a senior. Any advice would be wonderful.

Once I made the decision that I would move to Israel, Hashem made miracles and the insurmountable vanished.
Same here
Us too! Within hours, unexplainable miracles. It couldn't be clearer that this is where Hashem wants us. All of us ❤️
So many nice people in Bait Shemesh!
This just randomly popped up on my feed at the perfect time... Discussing making Aliyah! Thank you.
Amazing!
We hope to have you here soon!
You would fit in for sure.

Keep posting! You're bringing the geula closer.. knowledge is power. Chag Kasher ve samayach!

I pray that one day soon we will be in Israel.
Love this video!
I love this! It is fascinating! Baruch Ha Shem. My landlord lived in Lakewood. Am Israel Chai 🇮🇱 Shalom
Sorry guys, I'm not sure why the comments were shut off till now, there was some sort of glitch

Please do say Hello! I'm always roaming around with my camera

Absolutely
It all depends on how you use your money
Most people in Israel live off of a very moderate income
Thanks❤
Your'e a good vlogger, would love to see more of these
More to come!

We help people find their homes in Safed.
Great video!

I will hopefully get to everything eventually
To be Israeli you play soccer.
Basketball is here too

I think RBS/Beit Shemesh could be little America, lol!

Are these jews or messianic jews? Thanks.
how are you veichbrod
Is high enough
Meir S. You are a smart boy. Do you think it's high enough? It's not nice to bully kids either
Unfortunately not everyone can afford to live in there, extremely expensive!
It's all relative
You can rent a place and it's cheaper than a big city in US renting. My Son, it took him several months but he found a job that was on line helping doctors.
