This day draws inspiration from Caleb ben Yefune, who connected deeply with the legacy of the forefathers and foremothers, embracing their courage and faith. Begin by visiting places that symbolize this deep connection, then head to the desert for a transformative experience. In Bat Ayin, engage in a breathwork session to ground yourself, followed by a communal meal and uplifting music.

Begin with a peaceful morning in the desert, then volunteer at a kibbutz, inspired by Dan’s sense of community and justice. Travel to Tel Aviv, where creativity flourishes, and visit local art galleries to celebrate the artistic spirit of the tribe of Dan. Conclude with a group reflection to integrate the journey’s learnings.

We will explore the natural aspects of Tel Aviv, including a discussion on pressing issues facing Israeli society, and ultimately humanity: overpopulation, desertification, urban planning, and the role of technology in our times. Our journey takes us along the HaYarkon River, a vital ecosystem in Israel’s urban environment. Gush Dan as the known center of our days. It embodies the connection between the tribes of Yehuda and Dan, highlighting the power of creative collaboration.
