Have you ever wanted to travel to Armenia? Why?

Freshman
I have always wanted to visit our homeland and visit the sites where my ancestors came from. One thing I look forward to seeing is Holy Etchmiadzin because of its significance and connection to the Armenians. I would like to see other Armenian Churches that I learned about in my Arts of Armenia course at Fresno State.

I have always wanted to walk on the soil of my motherland and learn as much as I could about my roots at least once in my life. Last summer I was able to visit Armenia for a two-week long trip. What motivated me was my mother’s and grandparents’ stories of their former home in Armenia and how everything tastes better there. I wanted to experience it myself.

I have not yet traveled to Armenia, but after taking classes through the Armenian Studies Program, there are many places that I would like to visit. Not only that, but to visit the places where my ancestors came from would be an amazing experience. I plan on going to Armenia as soon as possible.
