A Practical Guide to Camping Over Shabbat.
Camping on Shabbat requires extra preparation and effort, but is not that difficult once you get the hang of it – and Shabbat can be a highly rewarding experience when spent in nature. This book will show you how to properly prepare so as to avoid any compromise on Shabbat observance, and enjoy the experience with full peace of mind.
Some of what you will find in this book:
> How to plan your sleeping, eating, washing, and toilet areas
> The basics of building an Eruv around a campsite
> Methods of baking bread in the outdoors
…And much more!
Why I Wrote This Book:
A friend challenged me to write this book. He pointed out how I was one of a few, if not the only person who had the experience of camping on Shabbat in snow, jungles and deserts, along with the halachic knowledge and the ability to write a book.
Writing ‘Camping on Shabbat’ is one of my unique gifts I can give to Jewish wilderness lovers who wants to camp on Shabbat and needs the information on how to do it in accordance with halacha.
I wrote this book so those who are already camping over Shabbat or planning to do so, can do it right.

He set off to travel the world full time with a five-year travel plan including, Central and South America, Africa, China and Asia, Russia, India, Canada, the U.S. and Australia… basically, everywhere! While he travelled, Ben made it a point to write down one travel tip everyday and strive for constant improvement – aiming to ultimately become the best traveller he could be.

Why I Wrote This Book:
Having traveled to over 75 countries before my thirtieth birthday, I have a lot I want to share. I am passionate about travel and want to inspire dreamers to pursue their own travel dreams.
Over the years, I’ve read countless travel guides and books, some better some worse. And I realized there was something missing from them: they tended to be country specific pointing out specific details relating to each place.
From traveling so extensively I began to think differently. I did not need a book to tell me how much something should cost, where to find a place to stay or what attractions to see. I sort of just knew.
As I traveled, I wrote down everything I wish I would have known before I started traveling – all the information I was not reading in the usual travel guides and books.
I originally called this book ‘How to Think Like a Professional Traveler.’ I want to show travelers how to shift their mindset in a way that they can always save time, money, and effort while traveling and have a more rewarding travel experience.

Why I Wrote This Book:
After five years of full time travel around the world to over fifty countries, I want to share my story. I want to inspire dreamers to pursue their own adventures and for them to know that they need not compromise on their faith and religious observance. I want readers to experience a deeper and closer relationship with G-d as I did along my journey.
I also wrote this book for fun. It was an opportunity for me to read through my travel journals and bring to life those special moments, the beautiful people, and times of introspection.

Freiing Out: Why People Go Off the Derech & What We Can Do About It
‘Will my children stay frum?’ is the number one concern religious parents have. Despite this, very little has been written addressing the subject matter.
I wrote Freiing Out to help parents and educators not make mistakes that could scare their children from yidishkeit. Too many are lost because they are pushed out from the religious community by well-meaning yet misunderstanding family, friends and educators.
It was worth spending a thousand hours writing and editing along with $12,000 to publish this book if it will save one person from unnecessarily abandoning their yiddishkeit.
