Georgia

Georgia is not a Muslim country anymore. Welcome to the christian Russian world again!

It sounds like I have already written that before: I don't speak a word of Russian, I am lost because the alphabet is different, but even different than the Cyrillic one. Crazy people who have their own alphabet! The only reliable language we can speak is the alcoholic one: vodka (much better than in France), chacha, wines too (worse than French ones, for sure). However, comparing to Ukraine, some people speak English Should I say American? Indeed, America is a clooooooooose friend of Georgia. Thanks to the money the country gets from where again?, the state succeeds to develop the country: water and electricity everywhere, anytime, education, nice and useful facilities, no police corruption anymore... 

Let's take the police example. The first funny thing is the police cars are directly imported from CSI: New York! Plus, there are more policemen in streets than chicken lolololol, joke for French budies. (Ouhhh, la blague est carrément mieux en version française) Malgré la forte ruralité des lieux, il y a plus de poulets en uniformes et de poulettes en bikini (surtout à Batumi les poulettes) que de vraies poules dans les rues de Géorgie ! And they do a great job. People like the police nowadays. When the police stopped you a few years ago, the only thing to do was to get a bank note in your hand, and shake hands with them for giving it. Now, the police is smart, polite and reliable. Policeman is a very respectful job.

And besides these great improvements, some Georgian men are rude. Foreign women are considered as hores and men behaviour can be gross. In this country, although hitchhiking is possible, I don't really feel safe.

I'd love to thank Michel, Nicolas and Georges, but I would have liked to add the great photos of the mountains... I've seen snowy mountains: around 5000m high  Ohhhhh! Please Michel, take 5min to send them to me!

Thanks Damon and Maia for hosting in Zugdidi

Petite balade dans la nature autour de Batumi avec des iraniens et une japonaise bien sympathiques : Abbas et Ahmad (petite pensée pour Shahram) et Mawi. Thanks guys for these shared nice times!

Je me suis fait couper les cheveux. Et j'ai pris la photo sous une lumière verte avec mon nouvel appareil photo ! Savoir s'émerveiller de choses simples :-)
