My Experience in Hebron, Palestine

I was blown away by the kindness and hospitality of every local I met in my time in Hebron. The staff at the excellence center is amazing and felt like friends immediately. I would love to come back someday and visit the staff at the center, it was an unforgettable experience. I learned a lot about Palestinian culture, food, and history. I always felt safe and very looked out for. Many people will say hello every time I walk down the street, but I never felt threatened or uncomfortable during any of these convocations. The apartment I stayed at was very nice and I always felt safe there. Seeing the occupation soldiers was the only thing that felt like a safety concern, but just mentally prepare yourself to be very respectful to soldiers and never put yourself in the middle when you see them. If your considering learning Arabic in Palestine, I highly recommend coming to stay with the excellence center!
