These trips have proven to give participants a real understanding of the challenges that local Jewish communities face as well as an opportunity to spend time with community leaders, Moishe House Residents and young adults from throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa. The OTR trips are not only great learning experiences, but are fun and for you to get a real taste of the local culture.
