What a year it has been with its ups and downs. My volunteer program with the Armenian Volunteer Corps ended in July this year and I bid my farewell to my dear friends Armen and Kohar. AVC is going strongly thanks to Jason, Anna and the new volunteers who are doing a great job.

Then came my trip to Georgia, which I enjoyed immensely. I then started employment at the Tourism centre in business development and this was followed by my Scotland trip. I am now the Associate Country Director with IESC (International Executive Service Corps) and loving it. And in less than 24 hours, I will be flying to Italy via Moscow to spend Christmas and the New Year in Rome with my cousins. Not to mention all the trips I went on within Armenia and Karabagh during the summer. And also not to mention the numerous amazing people I met this year through my work and the Diaspora.

To everyone out there, have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year. This will be my last log for a while so good luck to all, let�s hope next year will be prosperous for all of us. Lastly thanks to all my friends for your support during the year, you know who you all are, I couldn�t have made it without you.
Madlene and Artur, I hope your wedding went well.
