Away From Minsk, Eritchka Turns Blue

After an overnight flight sitting next to a Belarusian woman and her yapping chihuahua, Eritchka arrived in Israel feeling a bit sad to be away from the Old Country. Thankfully though, there are planty of blinztes to eat in the Holy Land to tide her over until her return. Eritchka is in Israel for her not-so-mid-year seminar for Jewish Service Corps fellows, and will return to Minsk Jan. 23.
