Re: Hello from Luxembourg!
Hello Hello!
Thank you everybody for your welcome. Yes in deed, my “curriculum vitae” is a bit uncommon, for sure….
My religion? I personally think in general that this is first of all something private. I have learnt that religion caused and still causes too much of killing and troubles in this world, so I donŽt walk around and preach and pray and try to convince people to follow “my” god. Its not good. But IŽll answer your question:
As mentioned I was born in Yerevan, my dad (Armenian Christian) and my mother (originally Uzbek, and yes she was originally a muslim) fell in love in Armenia and married and produced 2 kids, one of them was obviously me.
When I was at the age of 8, we where allowed to live in Germany, where I learned German, joined the school and finished the German Gymnasium with my “Abitur”. I studied mechanical engineering in Germany, am holding a German passport and have to say that I like Germany, I feel bound to it. I feel German – but I also feel Armenian out of my heart, this is my root, this is where I come from. Donno if you can understand that, it’s a bit of a strange feeling.
Regarding religion, my parents did never educate me in a certain direction, it was never really important. I do not belong to any religious group formally, despite I feel and live as Christian.

I'm Artashes, born in southern California, in 1949.
Many years ago in my youth in high school, I had two friends that were both high school buddy's but also surfing companions , actually constant surfing companions.
Their names were ,Lauren & Fred (Frederic) Stassart. They were originally from Belgium.
Lauren and I were dear friends.
Your being in the Benelux area brought back memories.
Hope your stay in Leuxemberg is as pleasant as my friendship with Lauren of Belgium.

Welcome anyway.
