• Arrived in Georgia

    May 22–24, 2024 in Georgia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    My first destination in Georgia is Batumi where I would take one day off. There, I need to arrange some visa applications, recharge my physical as well as electronic batteries and get other things done.
    I was astonished at my arrival and fell in love with this city right away. Located at the sea with the mountains in the background is an ideal place for every sports lover. On top of that, Batumi seems to be a booming city where various cultures clash creating that special vibe. The culinary variety together with typical Georgian food is a must-see for all food lovers out there. The food is just exquisite!
    Gambling, hotels, crypto currency and casinos seem to be quite a thing here too. Certainly nothing for me, but it’s interesting to perceive those stark contrasts with the poverty on one side of the city and the flourishing one on the other.
    To me, it feels more like a city in the Caribbean with all those colorful buildings, palm trees, and the sea. It’s nothing I had expected to be found here in Georgia. Even better, now I am more curious to find out what else this country has to offer.
