Jessica Fishman felt the lure of Israel since she was a teenager in the Midwest. After college, she decided to make aliyah, join the IDF, learn Hebrew and embrace a culture so entirely different from her experience as a midwesterner that it inspired a series of columns, the “Aliyah Survival Blog” and, most recently, her memoir, “Chutzpah & High Heels: The Search for Love and Identity in the Holy Land.” Ask her about adapting to Israeli culture, her crash course in Israel’s religious pluralism, defining “chutzpah” and anything else!
