Atlanta's 2023 Community Journey to Israel: Dr. Jeri Breiner

What was your favorite place visited?
Hezekiah’s tunnels.

What was your favorite restaurant or menu item while in Israel?
Piccolino.

What made this trip special from others?
The people I was with. I think what was most impactful, beyond experiencing our own Atlanta Jewish community, was that regardless of the politics and the unrest in countries around you, Israel is an amazing, vibrant, safe country with vastly different and wonderful experiences.

From the Makesh (crater) to the sea to the mountains, it is all stunningly beautiful and meaningful. New means only a few hundred years ago. Old means walking on a street the Romans built. The experience of seeing archeological structures and evidence supporting biblical events is beyond your imagination and incredibly amazing.

Dr. Jeri Breiner is a neutral mediator and clinical psychologist with Atlanta Divorce Mediation Services.
