Russian legacy meets stunning natural beauty
Gamarjoba, and welcome. Formerly the Soviet Republic of Georgia, the country has had its independence for only 25 years. But it’s a unique place. So unique, in fact, that the Georgian language is related to no nearby language, and contains sounds non-Georgians will probably never have heard before. The rolling green hills of the lesser Caucasus mountains are dwarfed by their cousins, the Greater Caucasus, and climate and ecology range from perma-snowy mountains tops to temperate rainforest and even arid plains. About 40% of Georgia is covered in forest, which makes it a naturalist’s paradise. The black sea coast is beautiful, and seaside city of Batumi boasts the odd nickname, The Las Vegas of Georgia, so if you want to take on the house while looking out at crystalline blue waters… now you can! If you want to ski on Europe’s highest slopes, and stroll down the Parisian-style boulevards of Tsibli, then VISIT GEORGIA!
