\u201cMountains give the passwords to the unwritten laws of living\u201d, says vlogger Guin Dalera talking with Armenian Geographic<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

In 2020, Guin Dalera joined Armenian Geographic and started discovering Armenian mountains with us. On her YouTube channel<\/a><\/span>, she talks about the sights, mountains and culture of Armenia. She travels around Armenia and creates videos about her adventures.<\/p>\n

How the idea was born?<\/h3>\n

Before the pandemic, Guin Dalera was working as a cultural guide. She says that she always had the idea of doing something like that. \u201cI don’t have many subscribers for now, but all of them are from different corners of the world, which is very exciting. I always had this idea, but there was no time to bring it to life. I always imagined that this idea should be realized outside of religion or churches. It seemed almost impossible, since my job was to travel to the churches of Armenia and introduce them to tourists. The main attractions of our tours were churches, but I didn\u2019t want to present Armenia only from that perspective. Of course, Armenia is a religious country, but going from one church to another and making videos about them was not what I wanted to do. The pandemic of 2020 totally freed me from my working schedule, and I decided to realize what I had been planning for a long time\u201d.<\/p>\n

We asked her what new she had learned about Armenia during this time. Guin Dalera answered that over the years she had managed to learn a lot about Armenia, but she still didn\u2019t discover Armenia from the emotional side. \u201cDuring this time, I got to know myself and discovered what I feel when I am in Armenia. I always say that for 10 years I have constantly seen Armenia, but only on 2020 I started enjoying it. I began to enjoy myself in Armenia and saw it outside walkie-talkies and memorized Armenian history\u201d.<\/p>\n

Why people should visit Armenia?<\/h3>\n

The vlogger finds it difficult to shortly answer the question why people should come to Armenia. She can talk about it for hours. \u201cIt\u2019s really difficult to explain to people why they need to visit Armenia, as Armenia is about feelings. Being in Armenia is an experience of many feelings. It is difficult to talk about these feelings, because they are individual for everyone. Armenia is not only about cuisine, people, or mountains. Armenia is much deeper\u201d.<\/p>\n

Guin Dalera has noticed that often people come to Armenia when they have nowhere else to go. For such people, Armenia is usually the 76th, 89th or 126th country they have visited. \u201cThese are real numbers that I ask our tourists for my own statistics. However, when they come to Armenia, at the end they always say something like this: \u201cArmenia is one of the countries where you should start your trip around the world in order to know the world, ancient civilizations and culture\u201d\u201d.<\/p>\n
