Dear Journal: I think that Armenia is like no other place on the planet. It is located between Europe, Asia, and the Middle East
. Armenia is like the connection point between these very different cultural worlds, and it absorbs a little from each of them. The result is a land with many kinds of ideas and lifestyles. Although I was born and raised in the United States, I am now in Armenia visiting my Aunt Peprone and Uncle Agatan. I know that the words “America” and “Armenia” look a lot alike, but the countries themselves are different in many ways. Every day I’m surprised by the little unexpected lessons I learn about life in Armenia.
