About

The JewishWanderer.com is about sharing and caring and it all started during my trips as a travel writer.

Often in my free time I would visit synagogues and cemeteries. Soon, I was setting up interviews with community leaders in destinations where the Jewish community’s resilience in continuing their religious convictions, was a brave and courageous deed.

In Tunis’s bazaar, I met a Jewish jeweler who was the only Jew in the entire huge marketplace – few Jews, he told me, had remained in this North African country. In Papeete, Tahiti, while studying the city map, I noticed the word ‘synagoga’ and sure enough there was one.

Moscow, Djerba, Marrakech, Bangkok, Mumbai, Delhi, are only a few destinations where I found friendly people who either invited me to their homes or their synagogues, often asking me to meet their family and share a meal.

JewishWanderer.com always seems to find a place where we can discover our ancestry and history.
