			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-100" title="Kibbutz volunteers" src="http://igoogledisrael.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/volunteers-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />So, we&#8217;re all young once, right? And a lot of us had this fancy socialist vibe surging through our bones in our younger years and hence Israel and the idea of volunteering on a kibbutz came calling? Well, I know it did for me, and I guess it did too for some of the following stars:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Jerry Seinfeld</strong>, the American comedian and star of the television comedy &#8220;Seinfeld&#8221; volunteered at the age of 17 in Kibbutz Sa&#8217;ar in 1971 &#8211; he had this too say: <em>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t like the kibbutz. Nice Jewish boys from Long Island don&#8217;t like to get up at six in the morning to pick bananas.&#8221;</em></li>
<li><strong>Sacha Baron Cohen</strong>, or Ali G or Borat as you might know him, the British comedian volunteered in Kibbutz Rosh HaNikra for a year in the late 1980s.</li>
<li><strong>Sigourney Weaver</strong>, the American actress who starred in the Alien series, volunteered in a Kibbutz for several months at the age of 18 in 1967.</li>
<li><strong>Simon Le Bon</strong>, the lead singer of Duran Duran, volunteered in Kibbutz Gvulot. The band&#8217;s first album included a track called Tel Aviv.</li>
<li><strong>Sandra Bernhard</strong>, the American comedian, actress, author and singer, volunteered in Kibbutz Kfar Menachem at the age of 17 in 1972.</li>
<li><strong>Debra Winger</strong>, the American actress and the star of &#8220;An Officer and a Gentleman&#8221;, volunteered on a kibbutz and even served in the IDF.</li>
<li><strong>Bob Hoskins</strong>, the British actor and the star of &#8220;Who Framed Roger Rabbit&#8221;, volunteered at Kibbutz Zikim at the age of 25 in 1967.</li>
</ul>
<p>If this has tempted you into looking for information on what a kibbutz is all about, you should take a look <a href="http://igoogledisrael.com/2009/01/volunteering-on-a-kibbutz-faq/" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://igoogledisrael.com/2009/02/a-kibbutz-volunteers-diary/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
