SYRIAN ARMENIAN TURNED HER BELOVED WORK INTO BUSINESS (VIDEO)

The smell of Eastern pastries and sweets has spread in the government
building.
Mrs Parandzem knows the secrets of Oriental cuisine. She has been
doing the same work for 15 years. The war in Syria made her resettle
in Armenia 2,5 years ago and she has been treating Armenians with
her delicious pastries ever since.
"I am guided by the motto 'The one who searches will find' and I know
that we would encounter hardships and obstacles wherever we went,"
she says.
Pieces of Syrian Armenian culture have been put on display in the
government building for the third day now. Here one can find many
things, ranging from sweets to shiny embroidery and artworks.
Zarsine Keklikian moved to Armenia three months ago. This is the
first time she has been exhibiting the garments knitted by her but
she is hopeful that her beloved work will soon turn into a profitable
business. "Before the war, I knitted solely for pleasure but everything
changed after the war, and now knitting has become a source of income
for me," she says.
Syrian Armenians are not happy with the sales volume but they
understand that the country is in a difficult economic situation and
people only care for their daily bread.
The exhibition will run until December 19.
