Nadav
Schoenbaum Shinshin
My name is Nadav, and I am 18 years old and from Kiryat Ono, Israel. I am very excited to come and meet you all in Atlanta! I am the youngest in my family, and I have two older siblings. My parents are incredible, and I love them very much. We are a very close and warm family. We spend lots of time together, traveling, hanging out, eating together, and just sitting and talking. In high school, I majored in Bible studies, which I enjoyed very much, and theater, which I especially love. Theater is one of my biggest passions in life. I feel confident when I am on stage, and it gives me a lot of creativity and excitement. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, baking, reading, watching movies, hiking and traveling, listening to music, and much more. I have also been part of the Tzofim (Israeli Scouts) for a large part of my life, since I was in third grade. The Tzofim is a huge part of my life, and I was a guide for three years, which is one of the most meaningful and important things I have ever experienced.
I am really looking forward to coming to Atlanta, getting to know everyone, sharing my Israeli story, and creating memories and meaningful connections. I’m happy to be part of this amazing program!
