Day 8, Tbilisi, Georgia

Another day, another city. Today, exactly one week since the launch party in the Uk, we arrived in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.



We drove around the city for a while looking for the hostel recommended by the lonely planet but found out that the place was long gon. I guess this is what happens when you rely on a old, illegaly downloaded, electronic version of the guide book...

Good dinner in the old town, a couple of of beers and then in bed early as we need to reach Baku tomorrow and that's at least 8 hrs driving.


As we move east, the quality of our life is quickly going down the drain. The days are hot and with no ac in the car we are forced to drive all day with the windows down but that a) doesn't help because it is like standing for hours in front of a giant fan at that could easily drive you crazy... b) it is still hot. Also our accomodations are now lacking some key features... The hostel where we are staying tonight has only a bath tub which we use as a shower AND as a sink. Not because there is no sink but because whoever assembled it was either drunk or simply lazy and forgot to install some quite important pieces...

  1. So basically you can wash your teeth while taking a shower. Interesting, I'll try it tomorrow morning.

  4. The food looks appetizing. Hope you loved the Georgian bread as much as I did.
