Israel is a country in the Middle East, on the southeastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea and the northern shore of the Red Sea. As we know Israel, is a country in constant conflict with some of their neighbouring countries. Thousands of soldiers travel from one side of the country to the other in order to serve the nation. Lot of those soldiers are not always supported by the country, so they are desmoblized and they live in bad conditions.
When I was little I always dreamed of going to Israel. My parents went several times, and they always told me very interesting stories about their experience in the country. I´ve seen lots of pictures of the country and learned a lot in the internet, and I loved it. So, when I turned 18 I decided to volunteer in Israel, I enrolled myself in the ''Ha’aguda Lema’an Hachayal''. This organization provides a home for demobilized soldiers , assistance in their everyday needs, laundry, etc. It offers financial help where necessary, and assists soldiers in receiving academic scholarships. I was determined to help the country I loved , so I enrolled in an organization which helps people who serve the country. I knew that would take some risks, anyway I was feeling very confident of myself and I was extremely happy about my decision, so I decided to do it anyway. Besides, I also had in mind to begin my studies in there, right after I finished my volunteer year, so it sounded perfect to me.
