Continuing on from these three posts, here are yet another 10 signs you might have forgotten to visit the Ministry of Interior in quite a while…while those of you looking for practical info on getting an Israeli visa should take a look over here…
I should just remind you that this series is for those of us who have maybe stayed a bit longer than anticipated (ahem, 18+ years?!), and hopefully will give you an insight into daily life in Israel and to what we’ve gotten used to over time…
Here they are, another 10 signs you haven’t extended your Israel tourist visa in quite a while…
- …you no longer ask yourself why there are so many jeeps in this country.
- …you can swear fluently in Arabic.
- …your family stops asking when you’ll be coming back.
- …you regard traffic signals, stop signs, and indicator levers with equal disdain.
- …car accidents become a source of heartwarming humor.
- …you forget that the other person needs to finish speaking before you can start.
- …you arrive 30 minutes late for a meeting but still manage to beat the other meeting attendees.
- …you ask how much people are making and expect people to answer.
- …you are the last of your original group of friends still in Israel.
- …your idea of a larger home is an extra 10 square meters.
And yes, there are yet more signs you’ve been here way too long!
