people every sh every shabas last shabas 300 people showed up really yeah yeah and um P PES it's over a thousand a lot of Backpackers Israelis rash also you have a thousand people by the by the by the S yeah with the on the first s there and then less because the is only showed up for the first night first day and kanuka we do a big event here for for go a lot a lot of go comes and that's the day that we we're showing uh light and and how nice is the kite for going you know we live in island so we want connection you speak Spanish yes fluent of course you learned it on the job I learned it yeah in general what's the what's the relationship you have with the with the G they respect you yes a lot the problem start when when we do not identify ourself as Leaders so then uh why you why you different than me how could you be a leader for going what does that mean to be leader for going to go to ask how was your day to smile to say good morning to everyone it's I have so many stories of uh a guy here that cleans the the plaza I go I said Bon it's like boss there's a guy old guy slaps the the thing and cleans and boss I mean for him but I'm joking Bon good morning boss and he always when I say it he's smiling he's like one day after PES at a truck that broke brought all the stuff back from because we're doing a thousand people it's a huge event so we brought a lot of stuff back salads and food and all the rest of the stuff that stayed good stuff and somehow the guy that was supposed to unload the truck didn't show up so he put all the stuff down and the guy didn't show up we woke up in the morning and the guy was standing this guy that I was talking standing all light all night to keep all the stuff that nobody will touch them wow because I told them because I'm in good connection with them he told me I was Zero night I didn't left I stayed here till the morning just to keep your stuff because you could there basically I wake up in the morning I have the basic things the sh the the the the davening and stuff but every day it's different I get phone calls random phone calls uh uh like a month ago there's a girl in jail why she had drugs and and they want to take her to jail for like like uh like she dealing with drugs not just smoking which is big and like two months in jail three months she doesn't know crying crying so I went there I know the chief of police we got it with little money we got her out but if I wouldn't be available at that moment and they would get her into jail it would be with lawers it will be a whole different story once she goes into jail it's not easy but it was before before so we could get it right away out people ask me what do you do I'm and how do you have energy to do it so I said it's like paramedic of love if you understand the the the teaching of the Reb and who's the Reb 247 for is and you need to be paramedic of love it's not about how do you feel it's not about if you're tired enough paramedic like member atula member of love of whoever needs something sometime we see someone with blood everybody want to jump to help him but there is people that the fact that they're breathing doesn't mean that they're alive so these people needs a hug they don't have blood but still they they have blood they blew it in from inside and if you give them this hug hug you he them right away so that's you need to be a paramedic like a imagine I tell you there is a ID that he is is not happy the Beeper needs to sound and you have you go where's the guy I want to give him a sh I want to hug him it's wow why when we see blood we think oh this is that's that's reallyu the the what I try to tell myself every day to have this uh energy to do it with a lot of passion and and smile and happiness I can imagine you're probably pretty this so uh you see this this a very interesting project when we came to Kel so it was not like today that the whole world this coming here it was like pretty slow we have the community but today today a lot of people come here it's like yeah a lot it's like boom everybody knows about Kel people from all over the world but I'm saying not so many people so we saw that the Israelis which is big part of what we do the Backpackers after the army they go and they they some of them revealed real Judaism for the first time in their life discovered discovered yeah so in Israel they didn't have it so much but that was the my grandfather thing not for me and here they see it vibrant you know idish kite so uh we figure that they don't come because it's expensive come where come to to coel or to Mexico so we build this project it's called the bracelet and with the this kabad bracelet they get 50 to 70% off in every place rental car hotels everything they do attractions how we did it we become power we got a lot of people we went to the to the blly power yeah we said you want you want uh you want us to send you people give us the best price so now the said first you help you help and then so first they come here for the bracelet this is the bracelet so they come they come from the bracelet and they put a bracelet and after we say come tonight come for diving put fing but first I want to give you the bracelet first I want to give you discount they can get out to out in one week 300 to $500 discount with this wow if they stay here for a week so you mean on all the tourist attractions that they have yes if you take all the things that they did in a week and take all the discount they get that they gain from the bracet discount so that's helping a GM and then they open there is a guy that CH from kib in Israel he told me I wouldn't step in house but I knew I'm broke and I needed this bracelet so I came and then he told me to come for the barbecue on Tuesday so I came and then we for bring and here so you don't bite and you're not so bad so I stayed and uh he did a big big change in his life but actually yeah he was volunteer here big big story happened from it so we see that first if a person is is comfortable he can hear about idish because his n always wants to hear sometime the body needs to relax like it's like eating food the whole idea is to let the body to put him in his place and then the sh can can connect this place is for you it doesn't matter if you do if you don't put feeling so I don't like you no if you put you don't put this is your house you know people usually they come to place and the need excuse I go to I need internet in Starbucks I'm going to order coffee I don't want coffee but I need excuse why I'm sitting here I want people to come habas and feel home I don't I didn't came to ask something I didn't came because I need something I can because this is my place this is my home that's success if they come here with no excuse not I came here because of something no I came here cuz that's my home so people come here and just do what sit relax play D drink coffee eat and you always have someone available asking if they want to put on his phone also yes always always but only the second question first are you good you get you have a place to stay you have food you have first gash me first take care of never I tell the him all the time never never ask if put feeling before you take care of his gash wow never unbelievable first you a because I care about you yes and the same way I care about you and I make sure you have to take a Bas also I care about you of and of course someone asked me why why you care why you ask me for the put feeling so I said because I understand what it does and how important it is I want to share with you if I have diamonds and I have enough diamonds for me and for the whole world why I wouldn't share with you this how did you end up as a Mexico by the couch and HED listen carefully so I learned in and then I felt like I'm not in I'm not completing myself I need like something more serious so someone open Yeshiva in Moscow so Yeshiva to become Yesa MOS MOS to become a rabbi to become a to become a said wow I had a lot of energy and I said okay I'm starting thisa I'm going to be the first one of the first guys starting the first uh group that goes to this I went I went to Thea I learned there something happened to me there that I said I want to learn everything I want to know everything because in Isa it's obvious you Isa you learn you don't learn you still in Isa there when you don't learn so the said so why you're in Moscow go to you're from you're not from Moscow so then why you came here he asked me I said to learn he said so learn it was so simple but it was you know this words that someone tells you that change your life that was one of the words that clicked that cck and you started learning I I learned in Isa but not like real 12 14 hours learning serious like everything and then I remember this moment that I start to learn any every book I saw everything I want to know more I want to know and then um my brother went to Bolivia it's a place that back then it was not Bolivia South America around Argentina Brazil and he told me I'm doing a i publish that I'm doing a Seder p and he got 850 people

they're not going to have aab house now so I didn't know what to do I in I said what should I do now that we don't see theab there ises and we take guidance from it you wrote to the that you want that said a person need to look in his surrounding for his for what to do inish so he said my surrounding 250 so I canceled the flight and I stayed and after two or three weeks I open kabad house in Bolivia by myself and then I gave it to a couple and I left I gave it to a couple the whole was ready till today and till today and you started just like that yeah there a lot of story what happened then and I have 200 $ how can I start a kabas with $200 so I went and I checked for places so I see a restaurant with 300 seat huge restaurant in the lobby of the hotel I see the restaurant and um I go to I didn't speak Spanish and no English I was only Hebrew so I went with a dictionary I said you have restaurant you don't have people I saw the doesn't have people I said I have people I don't have restaurant he want they hard go 50 50 he said yes since that day I cered the whole place and I told shabas we don't work Friday night we don't work and we 50/50 so I took the 200 that I have we went we buy stuff for the restaurant we start selling food and by shabas we had a kabad house for free the whole restaurant for us that's the way I start the kabad house with no money unbelievable and then I went um to Miami to learn and then I went to K you went to year in 77 to yeah7 yeah and then I open kabad in Jamaica the way I started I had a k i put kabat of Jamaica I didn't know where is in the map of Jamaica but I knew there is no kabad in Jamaica and there is zeden in Jamaica 400 600 4 in Jamaica yes in all the country one day someone goes where's the guy with the keeper of Jamaica ask my friend so my friend introduce us and he said before I did Chu I was living in Jamaica and I did a lot of sim in Jamaica I think my ticken is to open a kabad in Jamaica and I heard you're going to open a kabad in Jamaica I said yeah but still I don't have money I don't know where's Jamaica he said I'm going to go with you and we went together and we started kabad in Jamaica he just came to help me in the first month and we brought the Yuda P we did a Big Show in the old synagogue 500 years synagogue in in King Jamaica all the Jews came was big and then uh 6 months and then I gave it over now Rasin is there so that's Jamaica and then uh how K started I was by someone's house and he told me there is Jews in coel nobody's taking care of them this so I said okay I'm going to go to check out KL before I came here still as a b two friends yeah we two friends as a b and we came here after two months where did you stay we rent a place you rented an apartment yeah we rent a place for sure and an apartment someone gave to us one of theen here gave to us we start to get to know the the people here they helped a little bit and there is a company D International they also gave us a place to stay that's the way we started cuz he figured it out it was crazy people said I want to I want to my kids to learn K I want to start with kosher I said oh whoa we just came to you know like to and then like they threw the kids they said we don't want anymore the kids come with with stuff we want Jewish Education he said wait we don't have someone so then we brought a couple actually that came she was the teacher and uh that's the way it started and then swine flu came if you remember like Co it was 2009 everybody was with mask for us covid was we knew already because back then they said that it's from Mexico swine flu that came from Mexico but it wasn't International only in Mexico like Co everybody wear mask nobody left the home and of course kab is the only place that is open and people came but after people it got more serious that people didn't show up so said what are we doing here we're sitting learning all day but we didn't came here to learn we came here to outreach to to look for Eden and nobody wants to come Everybody's scared and then I wrote to RAB I said RAB we have only one volume of that we brought from New York we didn't have books said we need a clear answer if this is the it's not if to live there's nothing to do here it's it's a swi flu nobody lives home and and that's it where the cheese that we brought is about to finish he said re but please we need a clear answer to stay or to live because in one end there is school we open like a school people get koser restaurant Sandwiches this in the other end what are we going to do here we didn't came for this and I open familiar with the concept familiar basic overview theity Deion confidence and guidance of literally every question under the sun the random page any page unbelievable back to the story I said please we need a clear answer to stay or to live and I openes and there is a letter from RAB the the letter said that you want to go to London of course there is more in London more things to do but still it's more important to do in America in South America in Mexico no in mexic Mexico and you you stay in Mexico and you're GNA see even though there is less L less less people less yeah less people there's more there is more quality and you should stay and develop in all Central South America develop a Jewish Education I felt like a truck falling on my head I said this is not I mean I wanted to live how can I Live Now what is this answer how can I live it's not if it's you don't need to ask someone to give you advice this is a clear answer you want to go out stay in Mexico Mexico after I said the story in crownit by someone that was involved in making theh cish and told me the Holy Ghost cish has three times the word Mexico the Holy Ghost cish which is about 30 volumes yes three times the word Mexico mentioned in thees and we got this one book and that was like I was Lo everybody was jumping and say wow so that's how it started and all this what you see today Start From This Moment of then I got married imagine going to shim and said this is where you're gonna live and this is where you're gonna eat and and and your ab's WR ask him to come back here if not we wouldn't be married listen the most important thing about marriage it's not relationship it's values and and and uh and what's it called values and what do you do in life like having the same values and the same goals in life cuz people tell me like I give a lot of uh I learned marriage Consulting and stuff and people tell me but we have a great relationship I said what's what's relationship how much is it two hours a day it's most of your day you have to be on the same page if you're good with relationship and you're not good with your mission and life going to be stuck because your mission life is the most important of course marriage is very important but most important it's what you do in life because that's most of the day so it's more it's more important that that you have the same you share the same goals and vision and Mission and you have great relationship but after first you need to have when you want to go on you one are you on the same page the same same that's the most important that's the most important thing cuz if you only base like the secular world based on good relationship we have good chemistry if let's get married but that's not most of the day most of your life it's your mission it's what do you work what do you do that's and that you have to be in the same page when I got married I asked my Mia no give me like explain what m is what MIA the said that each needs to have a why someone to ask him better not a family member he can speak freely about things in life about everything sometime the rabbit didn't answer to that they didn't ask Mia before said ask Mia why you come to me why you come to me right away so the system is that you can talk to you can understand yourself better you can understand what's the the through him through the murder so um so I asked my Mia give me something I'm going to get married like give me like some some ideas some mindset perspective so he told me you were 100% yeah single you're 100% you want to go right you go right you want to go left you go left and then you get married and you become 50% first child you become 33% second child 25% third child 20% till you disappear disappear I said this is what you're telling me they said actually nothing happened to you but your ego disappear yes because you have to take care of someone else when you take care of others yourself is being taken care all the time your health your emotional everything everything becomes good of course you don't forget yourself and you don't forget your family you put time for everything but my wife always tell me when I feel sick I'm going to the kabad house I said you need to go to bed she said I'm going to kabad house I'm asking people how are you doing you need something this right away it's the best Advil ever right away the headache goes away cuz you're busy with others you know you know when you have a headache make yourself available for others exactly the famous story of the AL came to the Al and said I need this this and this doesn't go well and this and Al said like a said you're telling me what do you need from the world you don't tell me what's the world why the world needs you you're telling me what you need from the world but you're not telling me what the world needs from you why you came to the world why you came to the world yes are you needy or needed are you needy or needed so what is a for a regular person let's say a person is not a full-time in Mexico right what a regular a regular man as a family as a works hard on to make a living make up on what could he do to be what's what is the world needs from him to find his and his surrounding first his family cuz people like to do big things and they forget about the small things so first the first round what's the what is the first round it's him and his wife and the kids first round then the second round what does that look like to be a leader for to be a leader that they meet you the kids needs you your wife needs you the house need you it's give you that's the first give you the first do you become your better self through your wife and family every is a means that I have a mission and I've been sent to do this Mission anywhere you go to office you have in the office you can you can you build the light of the office you can do bring Torah bring uh bring edish guide bring happiness H what do you do in life you you can help someone else you can do you fulfill yourself with someone else needs and you you really become it's not you don't need to build aab house become when a person carry carrying he feel fulfilled so the send you to the world for what's your I don't know usually it's what the things that are hard for me this is the what are the things that AR you it sounds like yeah you're pretty everything's GMU everything's easy so you ask me so but many people ask me what what what are the things that is hot for you so I would say in theab house to raise money cuz I don't like like this job but the r say it's a so it makes me makes it a little bit easier but it's still very how do you raise money how where does all this money come from you said you have what you have a th people foray there yeah and how many 300 people shabas I want to take a moment to thank American Express and visa for helping me they're always there for me swipe the card swipe the card yeah listen many months goes like this that you don't have how and you just swipe the card which is not good but uh it's also a way to survive the month listen a lot of good people we because we are kabat for travelers mainly and small community so there is no big money here so there is no interest of people with a lot of money to give to KL because they don't live in KL so it makes the work much harder so we need a lot of donors with small amounts and we're working on it so there is good months the bad months and it's a struggle it's not easy it's not easy we always in debt and now we building a building so from that to building that's the best when you don't have money you can you don't have limitation when you have money you can dream only with the amount of money you have I don't have money I can dream about $8 million project No Limits so that's the first thing the second thing is to say hello to people like you came to coel now we got to know each other we had a great time and in three days you live so this always we have this like people come in a shabas what is Sunday Monday boom they disappear so that's something that it's also a little bit hard uh this idea of saying goodbye even though sitting down say goodbye but still the moment that they go it's hard and the third thing I would say is the Kinder because the children they are the one that really doesn't have yet all they don't see the all the picture the white picture of SCH and everything we we teach them all day but it's not like us that we chose it they grew up into it and and they are they are actually doing the Nish CU they don't have so many friends and they don't live in a community they missing a lot of part that every child in in New York has um so that's that's I admire my kids for being and my wish is that my kids will not be sons of schlim they will be schlim themselves and shabas I asked my mendle I asked him who I am he said my father ABA I said no I'm the father of Mendel kapl the of K so that's my wish and and I I DAV a lot for it that my kids will not say my father and mother are they're going to say I'm so that's that's he said the struggles it's not struggle the challenges those three things rather than that I think it's the most it's the biggest present that I got in my life become a because everything you do you have to do it with with enthusiasm and you have to do it with passion with why because you're present everybody sees you everybody asks you you have to learn I have to give aasa I have to talk I have Shing every day you have to be F if I would be working like I don't know as a lawyer or something I wouldn't have the obligation to learn all day and to Lear her all day and to to be prepared all the time with things to say so it's like been M also but I I'm I think it's the biggest favor that the rab did to me to put you in such a position spiritual way it's yeah it's to put me in this position that I'm always needs to improve myself to become better always in a good mood there's no how do you what's if you not in good mood uh who [Laughter] cares basically uh I always tell the Bim the Bim Bim so I told him do this do this so sometime they tell me no it's hard for me this I can't wake up at 7:00 I can't do this I can I said if I would give you a million dollar would you do it so of course so I said so do it for free now that you have that now that you understood that you can do it do it for free so once you could do it so once you can do it with a million dollar anything in life you can do it for free because then you're able to do it you just told yourself as you're able to do it so it's just about well you need you need actual motivation what like what motivates you on a regular day-to-day basis first of all that it's it's um needy the things that we're doing it's it's for a lot of people it's life it's life we gave at a story one of the crazy story that I had here that I read somewhere that if you hug someone for 7 Seconds oxytocin comes out and other hormones and stuff and 20 seconds it's like something like big so I was making fun with the like a foran mood with the Bim and I said wow it's Gish like you hugging someone and right away it's like so much hormones good hormones that comes to the body and you become H the person become happy and stuff said it's so simple from physical move you do something spiritual it's like dancing you lift up your legs and you become happy you never you never saw someone sad dancing that's what the r the legs brings the the happiness yeah so um so I told them let's do something let's do something crazy I all the time try to make the more crazy because they come here like this try to make him crazy like out of the box out of the box yeah crazy in a good way ER so uh I told them let's today give a haug to every person every man that comes toas we give him a haug seven seconds no way no no no you're crazy said you know what in order to show you that I'm the leader I'm going to start the first one that's going to walk into this I'm going to give him a hug 20 seconds 20 seconds they went nut they said no way you're never going to do it they said my words we were waiting sitting here and said let's see who's going to come out I thought maybe a Backpacker is 21 years old after the Army you know in Hebrew say Z he going with the flow whatever and a guy came in almost 40 years old not the type that we used to see not not the typical regular not the typical regular Backpacker Israeli Israeli but um very serious guy he walks him I said oh my God what I'm goingon to do now but I said and I have to show an example I went to him and I gave him a hug I and I I had to explain myself because it looks very weird I said we're doing a study something it's all good and I give him hug and I try to count one Mississippi two to make it fun after three four it looks like like one year I mean seven eight nine 10 and the guy doesn't know what I want from him but he hugs me try to there is something they 13 14 it looks like like maybe 10 minutes it looks so long it's it feels so so long I count I remember 13 14 and the guy lost the weight of his body and fell on me fell on me like this and start crying crying real cry crying crying burst out crying now I felt uncomfortable so I I drag him to here I told bring water someone
