Trigger warning for people from Russia or the South Pacific (and possibly a few other places), you have been warned....

Over the past month or so, I've been struggling to explain my perspective on the West's response to the war in Ukraine. There are a couple problems: we are emotionally involved, it's really hard to discover the truth since all sides have an agenda and lie to support it.

This is the story of a girl that takes A LOT of pictures. When we walked around new places, she'd take a picture; every time we got food at a restaurant, she'd take a picture; every 5 minutes as I was driving, "Stop, stop, stop, I want to take a picture!" And not just that, there were multiple pictures of the exact same thing. "When will you stop taking pictures of me?" "When you smile!" As a person that takes almost zero pictures (especially of myself), this was a new experience for me.

Oh hello. Now I officially have a Georgian ID. Does that make me one of the cool kids?

It was an amazing day! The weather was perfect. The view was amazing. The brief hike was to die for. I'm so happy I'm out here instead of Tbilisi (sorry Tbilisi lovers).

ვარძია (Vardzia): home of a bunch of cave houses. And more recently, home of warrior monks. This region of Georgia was invaded A LOT: The Persians, the Mongols, the Ottomans.... In order to fend off invaders, the locals started living on the sides of cliffs and underground. Some subterranean homes can be found in adjacent villages.
