Kyle’s Journey in Armenia

Just Another Peace Corps Blog

  • Kyle? In Armenia?

    My name is Kyle, and I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Noyemberyan, Armenia. I lived here from 2006-2008, and worked as an Information Technology volunteer for the US Peace Corps. In addition to my primary assignment developing my region's WiFi internet, I also taught computer and English classes to area youth. Thank you for visiting!

Another exciting week has passed in my village, Bazum, with many perilous tales to share with you. A few choice selections: There are some older Armenian men who are always waiting at the bus stop when we get out of school. I finally worked up the nerve to talk to them the other day, and […]
