Wine Moment: Integrated.

I'm walking down the streets of Sisian, Armenia, admiring the beautiful fall foliage, with my dog's leash in one hand and four grocery bags in the other.  

A man suddenly looks at me and asks, in Armenian, "Do you know where the nearest bank is?"

A bit startled, I tell him that it's right around the corner in hurried, colloquial Armenian.  

In this simple moment of grocery bags, dog-walking, and giving directions to a total stranger, this place seems more like home than ever.
