Tel Aviv

Ah, Tel Aviv! This city on Israel's coast has sun, beaches, and a culture that is lively. Visitors talk about the great vegetarian food—you'll find some of the best dishes that even meat lovers can enjoy! Living here isn’t the cheapest, but those who can spend a bit enjoy the sunny days and friendly atmosphere. Safety is good; many feel comfortable walking around, but you’ll see soldiers with guns and have to get used to bag checks in malls and theaters. It’s part of local life that soon feels normal. Public transport is fairly easy to use, and if you want to explore, Jerusalem is just a cheap bus ride away. For budget travelers, looking for affordable places to stay like hostels or BnBs can save you money, and cooking at home is a good way to enjoy your meals without spending too much. The friends you’ll make and the experiences you’ll have? Invaluable! Whether you’re enjoying the beach or exploring local culture, you’re in for a great time in Tel Aviv!
