    I've always been around Armenians in Los Angeles (one of the largest diaspora communities in the world) Yet there's a HUGE difference between "Glendale" Armenians and ...Armenia- Armenians.
    Little backlogged on travel footage, as promised before the #Tuvalu episode I owe you guys a Geography GO episode! A few months ago I was invited to be a guest speaker at the Extraordinary travel festival in #Yerevan #Armenia. Therefore I had to make this. Enjoy!

      Quick correction, Armenian is one of the few Indo-European languages not to use the Latin or Cyrillic scripts (actually the only one apart from the Greek) if one excludes the entire Indo-Iranian family which largely uses child systems of the Brahmi and Perso-Arabic families. That's over a billion speakers of hundreds of different languages.

    I visited Armenia for 4 days this summer, and I can totally relate and confirm that I had the same impressions as you Barb! I kinda felt that Armenia is kind of "mix" between Latin America and Russia but with a milenary culture vibe on the background. It was really interesting to spend 3 days in Yerevan. It reminded me to Arequipa in Perú, with the big volcano (Ararat) on the background and the stone used to make the buildings (Sillar in Arequipa, Tuff in Armenia). The city is very diverse on its structure and design. Aside from the different impressions of the city, the country's history is very sad. Armenians are definitely a nice folk to talk and hang out around. Really liked this video to remember everything!
