        Re: Life in Armenia

        Yerevan is surrounded by high hills, think of a bowl, so not only does it get hot (not humid though) but dusty as well and when the winds blow the sand from the construction sites at you, it sucks! You really do not need to go too far from Yerevan to get away from the heat, if you can, best place to go when there's a dry spell and high temps is Tsakhkadzor.
        For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
        to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

          Or Aragats where there's snow, even during summer. It was hot one day in yerevan, and we decided at random to go to aragats and eat some xash, and have a snowfight. Great day.

            Yeah, there's lost of places. Even Goris is not bad since they are rather elevated. And of course Artsakh is nice during the summer and doesn't get nearly as hot as the Ararat valley and Yerevan do.

              The reason Yerevan is like that is because of esh Levon, with no electricity and heat during early 90s, many of the trees of yerevan were cut down. Though now there is a "green movement" to replant those trees and make yerevan more greener. They've done a great job so far.

                That is one of the reasons, the other as I mentioned above, is because Yerevan lies in a valley.

                    Yea, I was staying on Mashtots ave. and I must say it was great, so easy to go to different parts of the city from there.. we would walk to the Opera and hraparak (which was like five minutes away) and there were so many good shops around that area, I didn't want to get back home, lol. I really loved it!

                    Goris is not bad? It is amazing, magical! From all the places/cities I visited, I loved Goris more than anywhere else. Dzaghkadzor is definitely beautiful but I felt like it is becoming a resort for the rich..

                      That's because it is I like that to a certain point because Armenia will need at least one or two spots that can be its Aspen or St. Tropez (I realize S. Tropez is on a sea coast). The current issue is that the quality of service is not good enough to warrant the high prices. Until the service catches up to the price or the price is lowered, it won't be a place to visit often but still nice to check out once in a while.
