Հայաստան, սիրում եմ ձեզ/ Armenia, I love you (I was gonna try and write more in Armenian, but I chickened out cause my grammar is bad and I don’t know where all the letters are on the keyboard yet. It was taking a really long time, and also jokes don’t always translate? Maybe next time💗)

Mostly, I’ve spent the last few weeks trying to figure out what the next two years are going to look like. Mostly, I failed in figuring that out. The long version? Is longer. I wrote about more about some of the very peace corps™️ things I’ve been thinking about in my blog (linked in bio). I also updated the wholllle website three weeks ago to distract from the fact that school was starting and I didn’t know what that meant. But if you’re still reading, and you want to keep reading, there is a good place to start. #howiseepc #peacecorpsblog #howembaressingisitthatiunironicallyhaveablog?
