Traveller's Notes


Armen

Recommended Posts

Given that this is an Armenian forum I will tell a story that I might have already told here, but in any case...I was in Yangon (Rangoon), this is the late 90a where there used to be a small Armenian community, now only a few families. There is an Armenian Church there, I went to see it, the caretaker was enjoying himself with a oung Russian lady in mid afternoon :) . I also got to try a late XIX century priest robe with a silvre clasp engraved in Armenian...even have the pictures for the heirs.

I wonder where to start? My flat tire in Romania and the generosity of the local road prostitutes offering their help, the Slavonic "Soup" that I had in a Moscow restaurant, the finger (middle included) prints that I had to give upon my entry to US and the unusually unfriendly look of the black custom officer that was processing my papers, the hold put on my passport in Ungeni, Moldova and the 2 days delay of my trip to Russia, the short but memorable verbal confrontation with a Macedonian custom officer over history... I will spare you some spicy ones from Holland and Czech Republic.. :beer:
