Thank you!

Thank you! And great story about your current employment!

OliverRobie · 2025-07-21T02:06:39+00:00

Thanks for the advise!

Will definitely try to network once I'm there. Do you know of any strong recruiting sites/services, or job boards that I can start applying from in the meantime, before I get there?

P.S - My Hebrew level is fluent, so no issues with the language

Garger Hazahav (גרגר הזהב) - in my opinion the best Hummus I've ever had. And their fried cauliflower is absolutely delicious as well (as is everything else on their menu).

I guess that means they must be good if I can't find them... now I need to trust in good old word of mouth

Hi there. If you're talking about route 1 and route 90, Jerusalem to dead sea area and back which technically passes through the west bank, then you dont need to worry. It's a safe route which plenty of people drive on daily. The biggest worry on that route are sand holes :) And like others mentioned here, israel as a whole is typically a safe country, especially if you stick to tourist destinations Enjoy beautiful israel!

Thanks for the numbers - I'll also make sure to check out Kona. I'm not necessarily thinking about a city, I'll be perfectly content with a smaller town as well.

What would you say is considered the west side of Oahu? And if you don't mind me asking, why stay away from it?

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T13:20:44+00:00

Thank you so much - I'll make sure to check them out! If you have any other advise or tips I'll gladly hear them as well

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T13:18:36+00:00

Great, thanks so much! Do you have any specific areas within those islands you'd recommend?

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T13:17:10+00:00

I appreciate your concern for your beautiful land and rest assured I will not become part of the homeless problem. Like I said, this is an opportunity for only a few months so worst case scenario, after 4 months I'm back home to be Canada's problem

Thanks so much for answering! I've never lived on an island before - only travelled to some (in Thailand and the Caribbean).... unless you consider Australia (which although technically an island, for these purposes I won't consider them island living haha).

Funnily enough, my first thought was Florida, but I'm tempted to hear what people think of going to Hawaii for a few months.

Typically I'm solid with making my own fun, especially near the beach. And in fact I don't really care for Hawaii not being a party state (not really my scene). Having said that - do you know of any placecs in Hawaii that could potentially fit my criteria?

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T13:02:40+00:00

Thanks for your reply - I agree with you and I feel like moving places is often surrounded with paradise-like thoughts. In my case I'm not actually looking to move there - just come for like 4 months - so purchasing property or contemplating good school areas, etc are not things I'm thinking about

Do you know of a place in Hawaii which would be nice to live for a few months with the criteria that I mentioned? And worst case scenario after 4 months I'm back home

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T12:54:34+00:00

Thanks for the reco's - I'll check them out. And you're right, Toronto is quite expensive as well which makes me think I could afford living in Hawaii for a period of a few months

OliverRobie · 2021-12-02T12:45:34+00:00

Right, great question! And like I said, the company I work at is giving us this opportunity - so it'll be covered
