  • Who plans on going back home?

    The "best feeling in the world" thread has brought up a question that I was thinking of bringing up lately.

    Of the posters here, how many plan to settle in Armenia? I mean, we're all talking about "mer doone hos che" and singing "kele lao, kele yertank mer yergir", but how many are actually considering or have considered living in Armenia. Why would you? Or why not?

    I don't plan on moving to Armenia but I do plan on investigating business opportunities there.

      I have considered it, but i will not be moving back. After being exposed to the opportunities that are possible to pursue here, how can I go back? I have aspirations. I am very involved in American politics, and I hope to be a part of it some day. Maybe an elected official, I dont know yet. I also do not speak our language.

      Armenia is great though. I have been there and made good friends, even though I could not speak a word to them. I love it, but I dont think it is for me.

        Why don't you speak the language? See...Armenian alienation begins there.

        In any event, I have contemplated it, have even talked to my parents about the possible "what if" of moving there. Nothing solid yet, but I wouldn't rule it out in the future.

          As if to blame it on a single incident. I dont know. I wasnt spoken to in Armenian growing up. There are many reasons for that too. I dont know why, that is how it is.

              What is Armenia like? From what I understand tourism is increasing and actually pumping some good money into the economy.

                To be honest with you, I want to KNOW Armenian. I am not ready to LEARN it though. Language is not a subject that I fancy. I took spanish in highschool, just sucked it up and got the A so I could go to a four year right off the bat. I hated taking language, and I do not desire to in college.

                    In my case, it just seems like the logical thing to do. We can't deny that no matter where we're living (except maybe the armenian communities in arab countries), we are losing our national identity at an alarming rate. Just checking the "honour roll" at my old armenian elementary school, I was shocked by how many "Jennifer Hagopian"s or "Steven Avedissian"s I was able to find.

                    Yet the thing with armenians is, they're all comfortable in their "new homes", and try to be as american or canadian or whatever possible. And to show the world that they're still armenian, they'll write a 100$ check once a year to help the "poor armenians over there". As soon as Armenia has become a charitable cause instead of your homeland, then you are, in my point of view, a lost case.
