Five Alive

Today marks my fifth anniversary since I made aliyah. Incredible how fast time seems to have flown by. It seems like only a few months ago I sat down in my first Jerusalem apartment to write about my three years in the country or about my engagement during the fourth year. But alas, as I sit down here in the apartment of the still 'recently married' Mr. & Mrs. Piha, I can honestly say that despite the pace of the journey, I've thoroughly enjoyed it ... The wedding planning, the wedding itself, the shabbat chatan, the job, the friends, the footy etc. It's been a fantastic year for me and I just hope it continues in the same fashion.
