Als het mogelijk is dit te combineren met mijn werk doe ik mee. Tel Aviv is een bruisende, interessante stad, en voor iemand die van kunst houdt is er (heel) veel te doen.

Alexander, op de gelinkte webpage krijg ik niet simpel een formulier om me op te geven, dus misschien is dat iets om door te geven zodat het aangepast kan worden?

[A.Presman]

Hoi Casper,
Ik denk dat het makkelijker is gewoon mailtje sturen naar yacovshaus@gmail.com of via Facebook
De mensen van dambond zijn niet echt technisch.

[Casper van der Tak]

Ha Alexander, ik zal een berichtje sturen. Ga je zelf?

[A.Presman]

Denk ik niet (althans zoals het nu er uit ziet).
Maar ik ben in Tel Aviv al meerdere keren geweest.
Misschien zal Arjan van den Berg meedoen.

[Casper van der Tak]

Ik probeer je wel te overtuigen als ik zeker ben dat ik zelf ga!
