Yorai Hertzanu
My name is Yorai Hertzanu, I'm 24 years old from Israel. On August 10th, 2012 I participated in a tour of the US Capitol, guided by Ms. Maryellen Anderson. Ms. Anderson made sure to share with us her great passion for this truly amazing place, for its historical background and its great importance. It was a privilege to visit the US Capitol - The American Hall of Democracy - and to partake in this excellent guided tour. So.. Thank you !
