Tzimmer means room in Yiddish, but in vernacular Hebrew it's more like a bed and breakfast, often without the breakfast. Northern Israel is ideal for those seeking to "get away" and there are many many tzimmers dotting the gorgeous rolling hills. On our trip to Nahariya (here) which I told you about last week, we stayed in a rustic tzimmer on a the Lemen yeshuv (farming community) just north of Nahariya. I though you might like a little glimpse of our tropical/woodsy getaway, envision Hawaii meets Bavaria!
Vases filled with fresh cut roses from the garden! (I'm dreaming of my own cutting garden....alack, alas)
Outdoor dining, amidst banana trees.......
Hibiscus growing on bushes.....Jacaranda in bloom......
Wood scrap craft and authentic farm equipment.....
More Jacaranda in bloom, I just love Jacaranda can you tell? And passion fruit growing wild on hedges.
And lots and lots of bananas, and more bananas, everywhere. Apparently they do well in this lovely spot by the sea. I think I could do quite well here too!
