I took this photo during the summer of 2014, at my host family’s home in a Village, in Armenia. I have lived with my host family for one year, and plan to stay with them until the end of my service. There is so much love and understanding in this Village, and whenever I miss home, being around the locals clarifies any doubts I have about my service. My work here, it is important to me, but my relationship with the locals means so much more.
