April pilgrimage to the HolyLand

Last February I began planning my first pilgrimage to the Holy Land. I was most fortunate to discover Travelujah and  the personal service of Elisa Moed. Elisa assisted me in booking   Guest Houses made available through Travelujah's website. Traveling solo as a single Christian professional woman I was very much looking for accommodations  where I could be comfortable, the accommodations were affordable and the other guests and I would have some common ground.

The first week I stayed at Ecce Homo, Convent Guest House of Mt.Zion Sisters from France. EcceHomo is located on the Via Dolorosa, in the Muslim quarter, ten minute walk from the Western Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Guest House is basic in that a guest is provided with  security, cleaniness and a non-descript breakfast. It is extraordinay in its location, the welcoming one receives, the graciousness of the staff, and the people one meets staying at Ecce Homo.  Breakfast was basic and there was more than enough for everyone.   A good value for the price.
