A very loveable article, I did find in the METRO (Jerusalem Post, Friday January 15th) written by Joanna Paraszcur about the Florentin neighborhood in Tel Aviv, founded almost 90 years ago by Greek immigrants: “Florentin – from Salonika to Soho”.

An article, full of nostalgia, I found in the Jerusalem Post, friday June 26th, written by Bracha Stock: “Window shopping on Dizengoff”.
