Kirkas Kiss in Guatemala |
Kirkas Kiss was invited by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs to participate in "Israel Week" organized by the Israeli Embassy in Guatemala ( last week of October 2010) . The Israel week , called "COOLTOUR ISRAEL" included the Chef Victor Gluger (who gave Israeli cuisine classes) & author Yaron Avidan, also invited by the MFA. Kirkas Kiss did the Grand Opening & Cloture of the Events & Yael & Alain Koginsky gave Kirkas Kiss shows & workshops to local schools from impoverished areas (invited by the embassy since their schools are called "Israel"), the American School in Guatemala City & shows in public hospitals & a hostel for long term treated kids & their families ("Casa Ronald Macdonald"– since the McDonald Foundation built & operates these homes) as well as to the Israeli community & more.
