“I Totally Got This… Said Every New Oleh Ever”

Nov 19, 2025

So You Made Aliyah and Think You Can Handle Jerusalem Dust? Adorable.

You made Aliyah.
You packed your life into two suitcases, told your friends “I’ve GOT this,” and landed in Ben Gurion with the confidence of someone who… has no idea what’s coming.

You walked into your new apartment and thought:

“Easy. I’ll clean once a week. Maybe twice. I’m built for this.”
Israel smiled.
Jerusalem dust whispered, “Challenge accepted.”

 
💨 Your First Fight: The Dust That Does Not Die

You cleaned.
You stood back, proud.
You took a picture for Instagram.

Then…
TWO HOURS LATER:
Your shelves look like they’re preparing for an archaeological dig.

Jerusalem dust is not dust.
It is a spiritual force with a birthright claim stronger than yours.
It will outlive you, your grandchildren, and your Dyson.

But sure — keep saying, “I totally got this.”

 
🧽 Your Second Fight: The Mop Situation

You buy a mop.
It squeaks.
It bends.
It smells like it’s reconsidering life choices.

You mop once.
The floor stays wet for 17 hours.
Your socks will never recover.

But yes, of course —

“I don’t need a cleaner. I’m VERY independent.”
Okay, champ.

 
🍝 Your Third Fight: Israeli Kitchens

You clean the counters.
You turn around.
You turn back.
They’re sticky again.
From what?
Nobody knows.

Your fridge makes noises.
Your cabinets crumble like matzah.
Your oven… probably needs therapy.

But no worries —

“I lived alone in Brooklyn. I’ve SEEN things.”
Jerusalem laughs.

 
🧼 The Plot Twist: The Day You Break

It’s always the same moment:
You’ve cleaned the bathroom, hung the towel, wiped the mirror…

Then a dust storm blows through your CLOSED WINDOWS.
You stare at the ceiling.
You whisper,

“Hashem, I tried.”
And that’s when every Oleh reaches the enlightenment stage:
“I need a cleaning service.”
