Podcast #087: Georgia - Country of Cheese and Garlic

Welcome to Episode 087 of my “Travel Tales From Beyond The Brochure” podcast.

This is part two of an overview of my recent trip to the Caucasus region of Eurasia, and covers the five days I spent in the country of Georgia, mainly the capital city Tbilisi. I also talk about far too much cheese and garlic, the worst beer I’ve ever had in my life, and quite a few strange statues.

Topics discussed in this episode are:

Audio quality of recent episodes
Problems when your debit card gets cancelled
Arrival in Tbilisi
First experience with Georgian food
Transport in Tbilisi
The Georgian National Museum
Beer and bars in Tbilisi
Uplistsikhe – the city built into a sandstone hill
Food in Tbilisi
The overnight train to Yerevan
Tbilisi street sculptures
The cable car and the Mother Georgia statue
Being enby in Georgia
