summer is over, but...

The cold autumn breeze has been blowing for a few days already. No more scorching hot days. But the tourist season has not ended yet. After the Golden Apricot Film Fest in July, the typical August craze, the Armenia-Diaspora conference, Independence day, French Frenzy in September, October is promising a new wave of tourists with it's Hye Fest Theatre Fest.

Hye Fest is not a new project. This is their fifth or sixth annual fest. They usually have production from different parts of the world. Last year, I saw a play by a Lebanese company and another by a Tbilisi team of actors. They are usually good. This year they have increased the children's section. Will see and let you know.

As far as my schedule, I've been busy with setting up the company and getting clients. We have so far a firm base. Arsineh Khachikyan, my partner and a fellow logger, and I are setting up this Marketing and PR agency which we anticipate to be one of the leaders in the field within 30 months from now. We already have a few interested investors from different parts of the world. These are exciting times.

The kids are doing great. Amassia has started school. It is called the Waldorf School. She is learning Armenian, Russian and German. She is also practicing her French at the French Club.

Raffi N, when I was in Armenia recently, I had a similar idea of a PR and marketing related consultancy enterprise (but not an agency). It looked like there was a need for it in the market. I have seen some of Arsineh's concepts and they are creative. Armenia has talented artists, too, so I think you will be successful if allowed to compete in the marketing market.

Best of luck.

Is Waldorf the best primary/secondary educational institution in Armenia? Where do the government officials send their children to school?
