It was back in 1997, when the WEB only started to develop, when I built the first Hebrew site for travel advise. The site, &#8220;Libi Bamizrah&#8221; (Literally &#8220;My heart is in the east&#8221; &#8211; a spin-off of a poem title by the Hebrew poet Rabi Yehuda Halevi), is a step-by-step guide to people who plan a trip to the Indian Subcontinent and South East Asia.<\/p>\n<p>Since 1997, many other travel related sites were founded, but &#8220;Libi Bamizrah&#8221; still draws thousands of visitors\u00a0every month. The site is maintained for no reward but a spiritual one.
