| Comments (English): We stumbled upon this place more or less by accident. i managed to cajole my companions that we needed to experience rural Armenia. We walked to Lori Berd and were transported back a few thousand years. We met Taguhi who introduced us to her family’s homestay, where we had a warm welcome consisting of hearty food, tea, and cards. A couple of stones heavier we clamboured back on to the marshrutka to Tbilisi after bidding out hosts and Stepan Shaumyan goodbye. |

| Comments (English): We only allowed one night in Stepanavan, however we wish we our scheduling would have allowed to stay more after the wonderful hospitality and kindness and food provided by this family.I thoroughly recommend Ruzanna’s B&B and I wish that all of our homestay/B&B/pension/guesthouse experiences on our trip around the Causasus were similar to this one. |
