“What is the reason for your travel?” That was the first question posed to us at passport control upon landing at Ben Gurion Airport. It didn’t take long to answer. “To help the Israeli tourist economy. And to show people how absolutely safe it is to travel in Israel.” That is not some made up […]

After leaving the indescribable beauty of Iguazu Falls (click HERE for previous post), our next stop was Asuncion, Paraguay.
