My name is Andreas Algava and I welcome you to the weblog "600 Days in Hiding" companion to the book of the same name. The theme of this work is humans' capability and capacity for self empowerment to manifest generosity, kindness and forgiveness in order to relieve the suffering in the world.

It's not enough to spend years writing a book—authors have to learn social media as well!

I now have a Facebook Page to help people discover this site and 600 Days in Hiding. 

If you're on Facebook, I invite you to like my Page.

Yom Hazikaron laShoah ve-laG'vurah or ”Holocaust and Heroism Remembrance Day"), known colloquially in Israel and abroad as Yom HaShoah and in English as Holocaust Remembrance Day, or Holocaust Day, is observed as Israel's day of commemoration for the approximately six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust as a result of the actions carried out by Nazi Germany and its collaborators, and for the Jewish resistance in that period.
