Thread 2834084

A bunch of friends have gone and returned with their kidneys intact from Armenia, they say it's pretty good as it is not a "touristy" destination
None have travelled outside Yerevan, however and I'm not able to find any good travel books for Armenia
I'm fluent in English, Russian and German, I assume nobody under 40 knows Russian and nobody over 40 knows English as all Eastern bloc/former soviet shitholes

Anyone been there? How are things outside Yerevan?

>I assume nobody under 40 knows Russian
You mean other than the large amount of Russians that live there?
>Anyone been there?
Yes, I like the other caucus countries more but it wasn't bad. It feels kind of like the Balkans but more Soviet. Great food and Russian whores.

i can't go to landlocked countries, it triggers my claustrophobia

>>2834084 (OP)
How do you know their kidneys are intact?

>>2834084 (OP)
Yerevan is a very nice city and the country side is also nice however development drops off a lot outside the capital. If you're after nature I found Dilijan really nice with some good hiking

that surprises me ... why would they move to armenia for prostitution given it's a much poorer and smaller country

Were they in the habit of snorting anaesthetic drugs?

Do you use GDP per capita to argue that you should only pay her $20?

>why would they move to armenia
I'm not really sure, they said the people were friendly and I guess the weather is better. They weren't much cheaper than in Europe, but they were hot and service was great.

>>2834084 (OP)
how do you get around this country? Like is there a good public transportation system or renting a car is absolutely necessary?

*in this country, my bad

Is it possible to go to both Armenia and Azerbaijan in one trip? Both countries hate each other and there's no entry from the other

>>2835051
I've heard that you could do both with also adding georgia on top of it. But you have to go through them in a specific order or it gets problematic

Yes, as a tourist it's no problem, it's safer to go to Azerbaijan first, but I think they'll still let you in as long as you don't have an Armenian name or look like one. You pretty much have to transit through Georgia. I went Azerbaijan - Georgia - Armenia earlier this year, when I told the Armenian border girl I was only in Azerbaijan for tourism she didn't hassle me. It's possible you'll have trouble entering Georgia if you look too Indian/Arab/African, but that's unrelated.

bummmmmp, I wan't to visit Georgia, Armenia Azarbaijan around March 2026, how will the weather be? is it a good time to vist? also I I would like to see an answer to this question pls

No, it's not a good time to visit unless you love winter
But go anyway
You are likely to find some really good deals on rooms

On second thought, the all-time record high/low temps for Yerevan in March are 72 F / 10 F, with an average of seven days of snow per month. That's not too bad if you have a proper coat and shoes.
