Moishe House Silver Spring -- PSYCHED!

So I am giving this a try after bouncing around the blog site the past few days trying to figure out how to actually post something. Guess it helps when I've been given the magic key that lets me in as part of the exclusive, accepted roster of Moishe House bloggers. =)

Life within the Silver Spring Moishe House is most excellent so far. I haven't fully moved in yet: I came home from 3 months working in New England for Nature's Classroom (www.naturesclassroom.org) over a week into our official beginning, and I leave again next week to work for Life-Tech Ventures, Nature's Classroom's summer camp. It's also in New England, which I hereby love. NC has 14 different locations throughout the New England region, but only the headquarters hosts LTV, an hour's drive west of Boston. I expect to chill with the Kavod House at least a couple times this summer. Can't wait to check out Boston, meet the BosMH-ers, & be part of whatever it is the B-ton houseniks have up their sleeves!

I'm really excited to be a part of the Moishe House family & initiative. I have loved my three weeks of involvement thus far and am super-looking forward to coming back home already--and I haven't even left yet. :) This is amazing -- I am incredibly grateful to be included in this world-wide network, this community, this Jewish energy. I can't wait to meet everyone.

Of course, what I really want to do is now travel to all the different houses, meet everyone in their homes, experience each house in action.

Worldly cultural traveling dreams....
(Sort of fits with my desires to visit synagogues around the world & to create some sort of dance travel cultural exchange/engagement in Israel, and perhaps in other cultural regions as well...)

I hope you enjoy the chapters I write & the submissions you read from everyone else.
You've given me a platform through which I can share myself & my thoughts ... this may be dangerous: I love to write. :)

Looking forward to being your writer for as long as you are willing to be my audience --

Have a wonderful summer in case I do not get the opportunity to write while I am away (the site where I will be working does not have internet access),

&,

Till next time ~

Sincerely,
Rachael A.
