Counting toward immersion while travelling

The Rav Name: Rabbi Boaz Yurkowitz

I live in New York, and came for a visit to Eretz Yisrael. How should I behave with regard to counting the days toward immersing in the Mikveh?

When you count the days toward the immersion, don’t take into account the hours that you lost while travelling.
