I spent a few short weeks as a volunteer at this backpackers and the culture Centre which is situated right next door. Other than housekeeping and looking after guests, I primarily spent my time at the cafe. The hostel is well located i.e. within ten minutes’ walk to and from most historical amenities and offers three dormitories, with electric… read more fans, clean linen, has a well equipped kitchen and spacious communal area with free wifi throughout. Towels are available for hire at a nominal fee.
Sami and Silke shares a wealth of travel experience and will enthusiastically assist with itinerary suggestions and information.
Partners Sally, Silke and Sami are passionate about Palestinian History, Culture, the Creative Arts and reviving the ‘lost’ Old City of Nazareth.
I appreciated the painstakingly renovated interior with aesthetically, eclectic interiors. Wall spaces are filled with a current Art exhibition showcasing two prominent Palestinian Artists.
The cafe which means ‘meeting place’ in Arabic, is exactly that. Here local coffee culture meets, deliberating business or life in general. International guests gather for seminars, political walking tours and talks, comprising an array of fascinating focusses.
Visitors are indulged and presented with traditional, vegetarian Arabic food, aperitifs and desserts. These scrumptious dishes are carefully chosen and tastefully prepared by local Palestinian women from the neighbourhood.

Special occasions on the event calendar during my stay included a Music and Poetry evening as well as movie nights, screening award winning and thought provoking films. I facilitated two Visual Art workshops with local children, producing differently themed, decorative mobiles. I experienced the children eager to please whilst striving for excellence.
Well known British author and journalist, Jonathan Cook, heads a remarkable political tour, commencing at the Basilica of the Annunciation in the Old City. This itinerary is twofold i.e. a walking tour followed by lunch at the cafe and afterwards a visit to the ‘destroyed village’. Jonathan communicates truthful, historical information in an easy and comprehensible manner, without the feeling of data overload. I thoroughly enjoyed this excursion and strongly recommend it to any traveller who considers Nazareth as a destination longer than a ‘bus stop tour’.

Nazareth is unquestionably more deserving of just a visit to the Basilica of the Annunciation. The Old City with its narrow alleys, arches and antiquated architecture will absorb you and take you back to ancient times. You will experience the market place, fascinating shops, authentic interiors, aromatic coffee, sample delectable knafeh, discover culinary gems, join walking and tomb tours, watch cooking demos, call on an ancient coffee roaster, a historical mill and the departure point of the Jesus Trail.

Other than the accustomed historical, Biblical sites and landmarks; Nazareth is also perfectly and centrally located when planning a visit to Jenin (West Bank and occupied territory) or a trip to the Galilea and Northern Israel. Nazareth is also the quickest gateway, most convenient and cost effective way to reach Jordan; one direct bus service will have you in Amman within less than five hours and vice versa.

I express gratitude to the Trio (Sally, Silke and Sami) at the cafe and my American co-volunteer, Chris, for a memorable time and the following:
Sami- for familiarizing me with such an extensive Music genre
Silke- for supporting the significance of ‘breaking bread’ as an extended family
Sally- for pioneering beliefs
Chris- fancy popcorn
