Today we are on our way back to Shahumyan from Sisian. It was really exciting to see the new city we'll be living in for the next two years, but I have to admit, I'm happy to be heading back to familiar ground all the same. Hanging out around Sisian made me realize just how comfortable I've become with the routine of life back in our Shahumyan cluster, and how much I'll miss the friends I've made there over the past few months.
So, while I ponder these thoughts, I'm just going to share a few photos from the past couple of days in Sisian.
This is the photo of the road my school is on- although my school is at the very far end of the street. It has a little stream that runs along its length, so that when you walk it, you're accompanied by a pleasant burbling brook sound.
This is the neighborhood around my school... lots of old stone buildings with back gardens. Very pleasant.
And this is a picture of town square. Right now, it feels very New England-y with all the leaves changing color. Shahumyan and the surrounding towns don't really have any trees in them (there are trees outside, in orchards, but not really lining the streets at all), It felt really nice to be in a place where there are trees on either side of the road.
