Day 1, Mile 0

Hi to all,

We're here and safe in Dublin, joyed to begin this trip we've so long been waiting for- we've been dreaming about being in Ireland for a long time now. Our Shabbat was truly wonderful- we were in a hostel room- maybe 6x12 feet big, and locked in because of the electric key only door (we don't use electricity on Shabbat...)- really not much to do but relax and stay put- slept a ton, ate, read a bit (Chan read an entire 500 page book...)

So here's how I think we'll start our whole sustainability talk: We got some good input from Batel, a friend of ours, before we left- that one manifestation of sustainability is staying local- local food, local products, and that the greatest local that we have is Chana and Yannai. So as we begin our walk to sustainability, we're gonna start out sustainable as can be- we'll limit our mass communication time, and enjoy what's most local to us- us. We'll check in with you in a few weeks, post some pictures, give some ideas, questions, experiences and so on. But for now- we say that we're truly excited for you to be with us on this journey, that we look forward to growing together, that we wish wellness to you and us- and give our goodbyes till some time soon.

Be good,

Chana and Yannai
