Location: Borjomi [Republic of Georgia]
Week 125….
Transportation
On Friday, I traveled from თბილისი (Tbilisi) to ბორჯომი (Borjomi). Trains weren’t running at the time so I managed to hitch a ride. The person who chartered the van was nice enough to pay for transportation! I love Georgians.
On Tuesday, my hosts took me to a local monastery for sightseeing and a picnic. They paid for transportation!
Accommodation
Rent is $9.80 per day, and it includes a couple meals per day, as well as informal Georgian lessons! I’ve been supplementing the food they give me, but I’m sure if I asked, they’d feed me all I need. I just don’t want to be a dick, and ask more of hosts that are already so generous.

This is going to sound strange, but it’s kind of hard to spend money out here. The locals are so generous! See you all next week….
