i know this is a little early, but i am on an Israeli Cultural Commitee at
my university and we are setting up a booth at a huge celebration on march
3rd. we are supposed to represent some part of israeli life. since we can
identify, we thinking along the lines of generation-x israelis, and their
lifestyle. can anyone give me some specifics on popular music, dress,
designers or brands of clothing, activities,food etc etc...something that
can be a hands-on educational experience for everyone
i am really at a loss as far as ideas go...
thanx
