Berlin: IG@sonatatoyan November, 2015
I am the eldest daughter of #Syrian #Armenian immigrants. My father came to the United States from Syria via Beirut to study medicine and make a better life for himself. The US opened her doors to him, and he did just that. My mother came from #Aleppo years later and married him, creating a little family who has worked hard and in so many ways been the embodiment of the "American Dream" ... My father is an incredible surgeon, a wild optimist, a luminous dreamer in making the impossible possible ... My mother's heart and generosity, wider and deeper than any fertile ocean ... I am proud of my parents and what they have done and how they have enriched the lives of all they have touched ... And I'm proud of the country that opened its doors to them and made itself better for it ...
