Armenia: Barev! Anyone home?:
Hey there,
My boyfriend and I moved to Yerevan from California a couple of months ago. We've visited Dilijian and the province of lori so far. While neither of us knows Armenian, B- speaks Russian, and that's been enough to get by. I can read both Russian and Armenian but still don't understand either. It hasn't been too great of a culture shock for me; I have family in Mexico and, to be honest, Yerevan doesn't feel so different from that. I'm always looking to make friends, so please introduce yourself below or send me a direct message (not sure how this site works yet). I am very excited to know the people and the country.
Armenia: Introduce Yourself:
Hello Ruth,
I've only been here since August. Sorry, I don't know very much about the schools. The schools in Yerevan are probably going to be the best, although there's a new boarding high-school in Dilijan that's supposed to be excellent (gorgeous campus, too). If I'm not mistaken, QSI is implementing a new style of teaching that's not so based on grades. If anything, look into the TUMO after-school program. It's free and the facilities provided are the best you can get. Best of luck.
