Dear Sponsor,
This is Levon. I am currently in Yerevan, but I am from Artsakh. I am very active and like to make jokes; I like to play soccer and I will become a professional soccer player when I grow up –a goalkeeper. I am 8 years old and want to grow up fast.
I go to the Shirakatsi Lyceum and I am one of the best math students – I understand and know it well. I like to go play outside. I know some French, English, Russian, Armenian, and the Artsakh dialect. I love sports.
I was born in 2015. I have an 11-year old brother.
I miss my house in Artsakh, my neighborhood friends, and my first teacher. Here, I live with my mom and older brother. My father was a military officer and he didn’t come back from the war. My beloved brother helps me in all my endeavors and problems.
