  • Here's a bit on where I lived in Armenia. I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Stepanavan, Armenia, from June 2009 to July 2011. I LOVED IT.
    Check out the blog, breadtobeeaten.... for photos and stories from my Peace Corps experience.

    Oh. My Word. Did that lady say Glendale when you mentioned the US? SO funny. I grew up in the town right next to Glendale and its filled with Armenians. I grew up learning armenian & eating armenian food at friends houses {I'm white}. I almost fell off my bed when I heard her say that.

    wow, I assume you arrived in Armenia with very little Armenian. Amazing how much progress you've made. As a kid in the 80s I spent summers in Stepanavan and villages in the mountains to the west, Armanis, Katnakhpur etc. I am Azeri, so since 1989 we could no longer go, given the escalation of hostilities. Obviously a lot has changed since then but I think I am convincing myself that I still recognized the general feel of the town and streets. thanks. This was pleasant

    This was absolutely beautiful! I am an Armenian-American living in San Francisco...and my Armenian isn't as great as yours! Seems this experience has become a great part of you. Really enjoyed watching this, makes me yearn to go to my motherland and rekindle :)

    You have it so wonderful compared to some of the volunteers! The other videos I've seen have some pretty sketchy bathrooms haha! Hope I get it as nicely as you did when I join. (:

      "You're" not "your". But he's living there as a Peace Corps volunteer. Maybe he was there to volunteer as a teacher or to provide medical aide, or something like that. Sorry it's taken 5 years to get a reply.
