As you can see, there were so many adventures in Armenia (which also included finally getting enough sleep and some time to be at peace and read a book) that there was not enough time to write and show everything on this blog I wanted to. Today is probably the last post on how a …

Bits and pieces
(Latviski zemāk) Because of flight changes, I am stuck in Moscow for nine hours and want to make good use of the time spent in quite uncomfortable chairs in the siege of duty-free shops, so this will be a post similar to at least one drawer in every home – that contains all sorts of …
Number four
(Latviski zemāk) Today, the last lessons under my guidance have been passed, and my adventures in Armenia are almost, almost over.

It doesn’t seem to be a secret that Armenians are hospitable and friendly, but to …
I’m here!
(Latviski zemāk) For those of you that read both English and Latvian I recommend reading the Latvian version – naturally, I can express myself better using the native language. Pictures, however, are scattered around so scroll through the whole post! I am writing this while being quite sleepy in the darkness of Moscow and waiting …
