This will (hopefully) be the last story from Tbilisi, it'll be short but it's kinda funny. So I went to a restaurant with my friend Heraklion (that's a solid 'I mean business' name) and we had a great meal. Really good. But the waitress forgot to ... Read more >

So, I'm heading out of here tomorrow (well, technically on the morning of the 31st) and I don't have too much to say, just a quick comment on Georgian drivers. I don't completely understand wwhy it is necessary to drive like a complete maniac in this ... Read more >

So, I'm still in Georgian and I'm not completely sure about the national obsession with getting me drunk before 2 in the afternoon. I went to a wine tasting yesterday, nothing too crazy, but nice. So, the owners picked us up in Telavi, took us to the ... Read more >

I'm in Georgia right now, I cannot really begin to tell you all how much this country rules. Although it's been a while since I've written anything, I'd really like to write about my recent hitch-hiking experiences.
Yesterday my friend Phillip and ... Read more >

So, yet again, I've moved to a new place. I'm now in Tbilisi and, as I learned last night, had a bit of a close call a few days ago. First, I want to avoid doing the 'we went here, we saw this, we went here, we did this' because that gets really boring ... Read more >

Ok, so I'm back in Yerevan after some time in Karabakh with a few thoughts on the whole matter. Karabakh is a lot better maintained than I thought it would be; I thought it would be in pretty poor condition but it seems like there is a lot of money ... Read more >

I don't really know myself. I'm in Karabakh, a break-away republic from Azerbaijan which has formed it's own state - Nagorno-Karabakh. I wish that I could say that I was dodging bullets and hiding in bombed out buildings, but I'm really not. Although ... Read more >

So, I've made it all the way to Goris, a town in the south of Armenia. It's a nice place, although it is raining, but things are cool. The last few nights I stayed in Yeghelnadzor - I did a little excursion around but the place where I stayed was ... Read more >

I don't know where I am. By that I mean that I really can't say the name of the city, but if someone wants, they can copy it and find out for themselves. It's a pretty small place, and my guide doesn't have a map. I got off and this guy came up to ... Read more >

I've landed in Yerevan and it seems really hot. REALLY hot. In fact, they've taken the effort to design their airport so that it looks just like Tatooine from Starwars - how cool is that?? But things are fine, no problems and everyone is super-friendly.... Read more >

So, I'm about to leave for Armenia and to say that I'm 'pretty' excited is actually a bit of an understatement. I can't wait until I take off tomorrow. I'm so prepared that I've actually thought about packing my bags and even bought one (yep, this ... Read more >
