Published: May 19, 2014, 4 a.m.

My trip to Israel was the best trip I have ever had and I don\u2019t mean drugs. \xa0After spending eight days in Israel where I ate some amazing food, met some amazing people and saw some amazing places I wanted to share my experiences with you. \xa0

First things first this was a FREE trip, I did not have to pay a thing. \xa0The organization called Vibe Israel brings bloggers from around the world in different topics to help discover and talk about Israel. \xa0I am in no way obligated to say or do anything I do not want to do. \xa0You guys know I only talk about things I truly believe in anyway. \xa0Their goal is to show people that Israel is more than just WAR and what you see on tv which is generally conflicts. \xa0Now this is something that I know because I have been there before but so many people don\u2019t know that Israel is more than just religious jewish people. \xa0Stephen and I discuss the entire trip on this weeks show.

While I was in Israel I met Photojournalist Ziv Koren who has put himself in harms way when photographing the Israeli conflicts. \xa0His work is extremely powerful, it\u2019s sometimes hard to find words since his images are so strong. \xa0Ziv is a Canon Ambassador which means he helps test out new gear before most people even know it\u2019s real. \xa0But beyond everything else he is one hell of a person. \xa0I truly enjoyed getting to sit with him and spend time at his office talking photography. \xa0Thee is nothing I enjoy more than talking shop with like minded people.\xa0
