This site is called "A Taste of Both Worlds" with the tag line "People, places and things plus a dash of purple and a sprinkle of pink!" One if the first things I look at when I review a site is the name and it's relevance to the content of the site. Upon opening the site I was greeted by a delightful post about the "Celebration of Pesach". I did not fully comprehend the author's title about a taste of both worlds until I scrolled down to the bottom of the page and saw a post about "Icebergs" a popular eatery in Manila. (Actually the one that I go to is located in Makati, Philippines.) It was then that the light went off. In one blog this site had me visiting both Israel and the Philippines. I enjoyed my view into the life of what I can only guess to be an Israeli Expatriate now living in the Philippines. The posts are well written and the site is balanced to the eye. There are the occasional ads here and there but not to the point of outweighing content. The two worlds that this author is attempting to give the reader insight into could not be more opposite, but the author shows that it is possible to admire both worlds and even feel at home on either side. A nice read. =)
