I just finished with a date I had with a couple of girls that are from Martuni and are studying here in Armenia now.
We met in front of Hotel Armenia and sat in their café in front of the hotel and shared some beer batter onion rings and a banana-split. As far as I can remember, I have not had these things since the last time I was in America and have to tell you, as good as they were, I really didn’t have to have them.
I asked them how life was here and one of them, who just got here last month, told me that she is already sick of this place. The other one told me that the fruit, vegetables and meat has no taste and you can tell that chemicals are being used while growing them.
We thought that there was going to be a concert in Independence Square, but after calling DerHova, learned that it will be tomorrow, so it looks like our date will continue tomorrow.
After we finished with the Hotel Armenia café and it started to get cold, we decided to walk to the Coffee Man on Tumanian for some hot green tea and some very tasty lemon cake. A very good place to go, especially in the winter.
I asked the girls how they deal with the guys here, as both of these girls are very beautiful and they said they just ignore them. I noticed that the guys here stare quite a bit and the girls said that if they look at them in anyway, they are approached. They said that cars honk at them, even taxis and police cars. It’s quite disgusting and worries me a bit that the guys here are such dogs. In fact a couple of our guy friends know the dogs here so well that anytime any of our Martuni girls want to go out, they call Armen or Kevork to escort them, as we know if they ever went out alone, they would be physically attacked.
Well tomorrow will be the big concert in Independence Square and our date will continue then and we will be joined by Der Hova. This should be fun. If anyone else wants to join us, e-mail me with your phone number so I can let you know where we are going to meet up.
