Be prepared to come back slightly changed from the person you were when you went.
Israel is a very strange, magical, spiritual place and no-one leaves without feeling as though they have been touched by it in some way.
Whether you are religious or not, the air is thick with history that makes you tingle.
I loved:
The garden and church of Gesthemane
The Western Wall
A beautiful mosque whose name I forget but which marks the 'centre of the world' (if you look at a flat map of the world, Israel is pretty much central to it and this is supposed to mark the exact spot)
The Dead Sea.
I didn't have the opportunity to eat Felafel from the vendors at the Dead Sea, so please eat some for me, it smelt really great and I love street food when abroad!
