Mea Shearim - Jerusalem - Ultra Ortodox Jews Community
Il quartiere ebraico di Mea Shearim, a ridosso della città vecchia di Gerusalemme, è un mondo a se stante, dove sembra che il tempo si sia fermato. Sconsigliato dalle guide turistiche, evitato accuratamente dagli stessi israeliani, è popolato da una nutrita comunità di ebrei ortodossi, dediti ad uno stile di vita strettamente aderente ai dettami della legge Ebraica, allo studio incessante della Bibbia ed alla totale rinuncia a qualsiasi forma di benessere e comodità moderna. All’ingresso enormi cartelli ammoniscono contro l’ingresso ai turisti, contro qualsiasi genere di abbigliamento o comportamento irrispettoso e contro l’uso di macchine fotografiche.
Emarginata dalla società Israeliana, la comunità Ortodossa di Mea Shearim (e di poche altre aree di Israele) vive al di fuori del tempo, completamente isolata dalla modernità.
The Jewish quarter of Mea Shearim, close to Jerusalem’s Old City, seems to be a place out of time. Tour Guides advise tourists against entering there and also Israeli citizens carefully avoid its streets; it’s populated by a wide community of Ortodox Jews, who strictly follow the Jewish Law, dedicate themselves to a neverending study of the Torah and to a complete give up with any modern comfort. At the entrance a large notice advise against the access of tourists, against any kind of irrespectful way of dressing and against the use of cameras.
But Mea Shearim is also the Headquarter of the Anti-Zionist movement ‘Neturei Karta’ (Jews United Against Zionism) that opposes itself against the existence of Israel. Following the Ortodox belief, the Land of Israel will be united by God’s arrival on earth and not by man’s hand.
cut off by the Israeli society, the Ortodox community of Mea Shearim (and of few other places in Israel) lives out of time and space, completely isolated from modernity.

Music: The Bliss, “Kissing”.
When you are back, back home. Full of energy and full of memories that your travel has left you and that you do not ever want to leave behind, you think:
It might be the longest trip, the ever dreamt loved one, but when you are back, all your thoughts and the related emotions might be the one linked to home. Because every little act might fully remind you and fully drive you back to the trip. Your first moka coffee in the first morning after, your fist family hug, your fist intense travel’s tale, your first homemade food plate, your first lover’s kiss, your first luggage’s laundry, your first room’s order with all yours travel’s souvenir’s spread throughout your flat.
And then treasuring all these emotions in order not let them being cancelled by your daily routine home, not let them fled away but just interiorize them, forever and ever and ever.
