June 1 was International Children’s Day and as usual, Armenian kids gathered to draw pictures with chalk on the asphalt covering Yerevan’s Liberty Square.

Fresh from achieving top marks in one of her exams, I was fortunate enough to run into the always wonderful Zarchka from Life Around Me who also got into the spirit of things.

just when children started drawing on the ground with colorful chalks. It was so exciting and I didn’t miss the chance to ask chalks, after which I started drawing by myself. I remembered my childhood… I guess it was spectacular how a girl of 20 was drawing among those kids trying not to let her skirt go up. However, nothing bright occurred to me than drawing Ararat mountain, as many of the kids were doing the same.

Here’s that drawing for the record.
