Soon my time in Georgia is coming to an end. I had never been here before but truely took this beautiful country and its people to my heart. Wow, what a beautiful place! I want to share some of the highlights I have had the privilige to experience.
Heading up on a plateau beyond the Bakuriani skiresort, you’ll eventually reach Tabatskuri – probably the most beautiful location I visited in Georgia. There is no public transportation there, and the main road is blocked throughout most of the winter. My connection there called me in June this year to inform me that the road was open. Some 2900m above sea level, the clouds are hovering just above you in this tranquil picturesque place, populated mainly by ethnic Azeris.

No rush, time for a chat with the local men. They said they’d be there when I come back. I printed this picture for them, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to deliver it (yet)
This is a jewel. No one I met has talked about this place, the guidebooks hardly mention it.. Leaving Tabatskuri, I travelled some four hours on poor roads without meeting a car, quite an experience
