Mark's sister and her husband are really cool, and so is their cute son! We had a great time visiting them in Cluj, Romania where they have been living for a few months for Julie's work.
She is an archivist in Jewish history, especially pre-WWII. We even got to go with her to a few synagogues to scope out what kind of old documents they might have that she could organize and make available to the world, while also empowering the local Jewish communities.
Her husband, Benjy, is an incredible musician, playing the upright bass and also singing in a bunch of languages. We were so pleased to get to attend (false cognate in French! "attend" means to wait on French; "assister" means to be present at) one of his concerts and hear him preform. If you ever have the chance, you should hear him too! http://www.yiddisharttrio.com/
And, of course, another highlight was playing with their almost 2-year-old son, David. He is pretty chill and it was really fun to get to know him and enjoy some of his cuteness.
