Guide: Jeffrey
Guiding since 2023Originally from Canada, I lived in Jerusalem during the 1990s and tried the religious lifestyle. I returned to Israel permanently with my family in 2018. I currently live in Tel Aviv where I write comic books (for adults and kids) and do standup comedy...no longer religious.
I decided to create a tour of local terror attack sites in Tel Aviv having been a witness to some of these attacks and personally knowing people who were wounded...and I currently live very near to the locations where the attacks happened - the memories of these horrific events are something I carry with me every day.
I approach even the darkest subjects with a bit of humour, so you can expect a unique perspective when you walk this tragic path with me.

Meeting point:Mikhoels SquareTour starts at Mikhoels Square (corner of King George / Ben Tsiyon Blvd). In front of the big "MiniMax" dollar store. I will stand there with my green folder and probably a T-shirt with a silly slogan on it.
