No. The dollar depreciated 30 percent against the Armenian dram in my two years. The COLA didn't keep up. Gas is $5 per gallon for the cheap stuff. Tickets out of the country, even to nearby UAE runs $350-$800 per person only to as far as Paris or London. - Jul 2008


Yes, unless you eat at Phonecia and Dolmana all the time and buy lots of carpets at inflated tourist prices. - Jan 2008
