In it, I share our unique perspective as a foreign couple with no Armenian roots who visited once but never left.
This book is a must-read for foreigners and Armenian diasporans considering a short visit or permanent relocation to Armenia.
The book answers common questions I've been asked hundreds of times about daily life here, debunks many of the myths you've likely heard about living in Armenia, offers invaluable tips for newcomers, and shares many personal stories and experiences from our years here.
Expected release in October 2026.

The internet is overflowing with generic content, making it nearly impossible to differentiate your brand and connect with potential customers. Journalistic writing cuts through the noise by uncovering facts, interviewing experts, and crafting compelling stories that resonate with your audience. Artificial intelligence can't replicate that depth. It's the human touch that builds trust and sets your business apart.
Think of me as a business journalist for your business. I go beyond surface-level content. My expertise lies in uncovering the “why” behind what your business does. I translate those insights into compelling narratives that not only convert visitors into leads but also build trust through authenticity.
For more than 12 years, I have worked with hundreds of clients worldwide. I conduct insightful interviews with industry experts, uncovering unique perspectives and data-driven insights that set your brand apart. The result? Content that educates, inspires, and positions your brand as a thought leader. This approach resonates with sophisticated business clients who know the difference between generic content and meaningful content.
Rather than recycling existing content from the internet for your company's blog, I develop original industry-specific material that delivers genuine value. Your future leads will immediately recognize and engage with this fresh perspective.
