Alistair Smith loves to travel to less usual places where he makes the time to find those interesting angles that bring foreign tourism to life. This week he tells Graeme Kemlo about his visit to Armenia, a small landlocked country in the southern caucuses that was the first country in the world to adopy Christianity as its official religion, despite being overrun by Russia, Turkey and Iran at varioud periods of its history.
