BBYO Passport

It was one of not the best experience I have ever had or will have

Summer with BBYO was the best experience of my life! Getting to travel with teens my age was so fun and I am taking home new friends, memories, and a connection to Israel v

Best summer of my life. Kids were amazing, counselors were great, and the experience was lifechanging even though it wasn’t my first trip to Israel. Thank you, BBYO!

I throughly enjoyed my time in StandUp Chicago, as I made incredible friends and I learned so much about social entrepreneurship!! it was such an amazing experience.

This experience was a once in a lifetime, unforgettable journey. Words can't express the way I feel about this trip, it was that powerful. Despite this, I feel as though the trip could be tweaked slightly to make it even more incredible. First off, I understand parents wanting to go, but in my opinion, they shouldn't go. They change their child's experience. Since parents should be able to march, BBYO passport should have a separate trip for adults. This way the two trips would be able to travel together but wouldn't be with them at all times. I think that we should have shirts because at the March of the Living and the March on Jerusalem everyone was wearing the same shirts except us. I felt like I didn't belong regardless of what the hat shows. Also for next year, get water bottle carriers with the color of the bus. At the marches, we couldn't bring in bags. Which makes sense except during the march people want to take pictures, but doing so is impossible when you are carrying a water bottle. This years march was so hot that we would've gotten sick without water. Other than these tree little tweaks, I've said it before, but I'll say it again, this trip was absolutely unforgettable.
