Recordist's notes

A violent storm went on us. We saw a 4x4 car driving, the owner was searching us. In aim to protect us from the rain, he placed us in a small caravan, inside we were 11 persons ! It was so small that my feet were on another person. As Armenia is like this, these farmers shared with us vodka, cheese, tomatoes, cognac and coffee. This is the recording of the time we spent with them. The terrible farmer called Samo is speaking so loud ! It's a very friendly guy.
