Please review the following information very carefully and then send an e-mail to Aviv at aviv@arava.org to let him know where you will be getting on the bus on the first day of the semester, Monday, September 2nd, 2024.
TEL AVIV
Those who are starting in Tel Aviv will be meeting at Tel Aviv Center – Savidor Train Station on Arlozorov Street and Namir Boulevard (view the map here). You will be meeting Clara Huergo, our Dialogue Forum Coordinator, there at 10:00, outside the main entrance of the train station (NOT the bus station which is adjacent).
Please contact Clara when arriving at the meeting point, or update her if you are delayed: Israeli number for calls – 054-2359550; for Whatsapp messages/calls – +1(857)2680401
JERUSALEM
Those who are coming from Jerusalem will meet outside the Ammunition Hill site (view the map here) at 12:00.
Once the bus leaves Jerusalem, it is about a 4 hour ride to Kibbutz Ketura. The bus will make stops along the way so you can stretch your legs, use the bathroom, or have a snack.
You are expected to arrive at Kibbutz Ketura and the Arava Institute around 17:00, and we will be ready and waiting to welcome you to your new home!
