The next adventure is Armenia!
Finding guidebooks, maps, modern-day literature, movies, and even
current event news from here in the States has not been the easy. But
friends and colleagues who have experienced the pleasures of Armenia
have been generous in their descriptions, recommendations, and
connections. So far I have discovered more than enough to do, see, learn
in the ten weeks I will be there with my sister Denise while she works
on a Rule of Law project for USAID/ABA.
My predictions
are: monastery visits, Mt. Ararat, cooking lessons, food market shopping
joys, long walks and old churches, finding unusual to unique items to
bring home (rugs anyone?), volunteering at the Women's Resource Center
in Yerevan, and learning more about this very old, rich culture.
