It stopped raining and the sun peaked through the clouds this morning! I walked the property of the hotel and enjoyed the smells of the nature after the rain. I was able to regain some clarity with the pause in rain. Your environment really plays a huge role in your psyche. It's crucial to surround yourself with the proper nature that best suits you.
That's why traveling is so important. You are able to deduce which nature you want to diffuse with. I've been in Georgia for a week and want to give my proper analysis of the country.
**Tbilisi** - The capital city is where all the action is at. It's becoming developed and there are lots of things to do and see.
**Countryside** - When I drove out into the countryside you could still see the remnants of the Soviet strangle hold on the country. Poverty and Soviet architecture and abandon buildings reap the streets. The young people are all moving to Tbilisi for better opportunity.
**Geography** - The country is mountainous and has a variety of landscapes.
**Food & Wine** - The food is yummy and unique but heavy, you cannot eat it everyday. The wine is spectacular. People do not know that Georgia is one of the oldest producers of wine and have their own unique fermentation process.
**People** - The people are friendly and welcoming to foreigners but are still serious and eastern European. There isn't much crime or homelessness in the main cities which is nice. Some stray dogs roam the street but they are well behaved.
**Politics** - The country really wants to be a part of the EU but it seems like there is much corruption in the government.
Overall I really like Georgia and recommend it to any one looking for a unique new country to visit. There's skiing, history, hiking, beaches, caves, and more.
