I was raised and I was born in Israel so I do not need to do alyeya. Israel is a Jewish state for all Jews so do alyeya, nothing more important than that,
אין על המדינה שלנו
שלום לכולם

Of course, but unless a person is rich, or has a well-paid profession, or can live on faith alone, it is hard to live there. I know that. And people who make aliyah often return to their home country. Money - and quite a lot of it - is necessary in the bank before making aliyah. To have your savings dwindle, have trouble finding a job, have to pay really high rent for a place where the landlord couldn't be bothered to fix the faults of your apartment, to have to cope with all the internal problems of Israel, not to mention the external problems, and you can see why aliyah is not for everyone. It's good that you are doing some travelling at your age and I wish you well. But everyone's personal circumstances are difficult. That is not to say a person should not vacation there of course. It is the best place for a vacation. It is just living there, for people who have been raised elsewhere, is extremely difficult.
