Degania Alef

I fell off a mountain taking this photo. Beit She'an is another place I had never heard of before visiting - making it that much more incredible to see. This is an archaeology nerd's paradise, and to explore it with one of the archaeologists who worked on the site was an honour. The scar I have from the fall will always remind me of this clumsy adventure

Emek HaMaayanot

The mosaic floors at Zippori are incredible. An amazing use of human ingenuity.
