Whoops - Armenia






I haven't posted anything for a few days - which is why this post is entitles Whoops.
ALOT has happened. Wednesday my dad left, and that night i went to hang out at a tattoo parlour in Yerevan. Made friends with the owner and artist. I had gone there because Lusine ('cousin') was getting a tat done. Spent the night with her and her husband and their 2 sons.
Thursday had a meeting at the American University - Called Hovsep (our driver here) for a ride, but he couldn't make it, so sent his brother. Armen is the same age as me and we hit it off, so we decided we'd just go somewhere knew, and drove 1 1/2 hours to Dilijan! What a beautiful place driving up and down this mountainous area. Ate corn from a vendor on the side of the road and climbed an old water energy building. At night went to a bar called "That Place" with some friends. Tamar & Perouz (girls for T.O. who i have spent nearly everyday with!), Siro (tattoo artist) and K.C. & his friend (2 african boys i made friends with).
Friday moved into the house with all the other interns. Found out i am the oldest of everyone, so it should be interesting. Everyone seems nice, and my superviser is just amazing. Her name is Sati, and she is truly a gem!
Went to Vernisage (weekend market in the city) today with Tamar, Perouz and Garo (Their friend from T.O. who is here for 2 weeks and they are now staying with).
Here are a mish-mash of pictures I took throughout the past few days.
