I do think Tel-Aviv is a hip place. Perhaps I touched on it too briefly in the essay. Thanks for the comment, Boaz. I do think Tel-Aviv is a hip place.

I'm an Israeli from Tel-Aviv, and its thrilling to experience our region from different eyes. An interesting thing to notice is that The Wailing Wall (The ancient relic nicknamed The Wall) sounds just like the Wall of Separation (the Berlinesque thing we see you photographed next to, also nicknamed The Wall). I'm not sure why, but for most accounts of our region, and Tel-Aviv specifically, nobody, you included, doesnt seem to mention that Tel-Aviv is a pretty hip and modern metropolitan area, almost on par with other international urban centers. Or maybe I'm misleading myself. It was a very interesting read for me. I’m an Israeli from Tel-Aviv, and its thrilling to experience our region from different eyes.
