According to the handy travel app I use to track my spending, Armenia is the cheapest country I travelled in this year.

I think it’s fair to say Armenia is pretty off the beaten track. Which is why knowing these 18 things before you travel there is pretty useful! Indeed before I adventured here, there were just a handful of bloggers writing about this country online. So, after my amazing time there, I wanted to post an […]
