האזנה: סבתא רוזה מספרת

My grandmother Rosa was born in Romania in 1950. When she was a child, she used to live in a small house near a river. She didn't use to have toys, so she used to play with stones and sticks.

In 1962, when she was twelve, her family decided to move to Israel. They took a ship from Romania. The trip took five days, and my grandmother was sick most of the time!

When they arrived, they didn't know any Hebrew. My grandmother couldn't understand her teachers, but she learned fast. After one year, she could read and write in Hebrew.

Today my grandmother lives in Haifa. She still loves rivers, and every summer we visit the Jordan River together. I asked her: "Did you miss Romania?" She smiled and said: "Only the river."
