Back home
I've been back home for a week now, and what a hectic week it's been.
Other than the fact that I am feeling sick everytime I eat, and battling food poisoning on my birthday, that very same night I went to the hospital 'cause my sister had her second child. Awesome experience, was there throughout the whole thing massaging her back and letting her squeeze my hand, seeing the entire labour, and even cutting the umbilical cord.
Well, other than that, I can't believe how much crime there is in this city now. Toronto used to be known for being such a safe city, but things have changed bigtime.
I'm glad to be home so far, but I don't know how long that feeling will last. I'm already getting annoyed by the linear "robotic" lives of everyone around me. Wake up, have a coffee, head to work, come back home, eat dinner, go to sleep. Next day the same. I could never live like this. Never have, never would.

I know what you mean, I am in Montreal right now to present my son born in Armenia to his Canadian grand-parents. Sometimes
I feel that I could never come back to live here. It's nice to see friends and family but everytime I leave Armenia and come to Canada I am happy the first week and then I want to come back very quickly. For my son it is going to be another experience. For him Canada will be a virtual homeland, the past and Armenia the present. He hates the weather here, he gets annoyed when I put him in his car-seat, Madzun does not taste the same and people talk in a language he can't understand. I am sure he will be happy to come back to yerevan where everything is familiar.
Sadly this IS the real world of the west and now the far east too. Welcome aboard even though you might be going back to Yerevan soon.
