Kvutsah: Aseef (harvest)
rd
Date of Aliyah: 23 August 2007
Why Aseef? Because we are a collection of
random individuals and I like
farming and harvesting. And
Itamar grew up on Aseef Street
in Haifa. Also Succot (Chag Aseef)
is the first festival we celebrated together as a kvutsah
Describe Location: Embarrassingly rich part of Tel Aviv. Although we tell Israelis that we live
next to the Kibbutz Seminar Centre which sounds much cooler!
Favourite Socialist / Zionist. Why? Borochov because he looks like me, Gordon and Katznelson
because they inspire me the most and because of their focus on agricultural labour.
Would you rather catch your parents having sex or have your parents catch you having
sex? Being caught
Funniest Movement Moment: At the ghetto fighters' museum, one of my chanichim asked if
Antek Zuckerman was the same guy that invented facebook!
Current Ringtone: Silent with vibrate. Shnat madrichim don't get fancy phones with ringtones.
What are you reading right now? The last thing I read was an article that described how
Israeli women are looking for sex when they travel abroad.
What music are you listening to right now? Itamar playing guitar
Food you would rather not eat: Anything that is white, creamy and mushy. Includes cottage
cheese, yogurt and the like.
Vision for the new Kibbutz Movement… Shapers of the new Israeli society
Tafkid in the movement: British shnat madrich
