I have just spent about 5 hours wandering through Tbilisi to send a small package home to Mia and Maria. I bought some strange local sweets and two porcelain-dogs I found on a street market a few days back. Turns out, sending a package is not that easy in Georgia. I’ve visited multiple post offices, …
I am slowly finding my way around in Tbilisi. Getting in touch with other people proves difficult though. I don’t understand the language and english is not as commonly spoken as I had thought. I know movement can bridge this language-gap easily and yet I’m not seeking out movement classes. Instead I stick to the …
I have signed up to the local co-working space here Tbilisi. It seems nice. Quiet, the internet is fast and people seem kind. So I did a first good work session there and feel alright with the result. I mainly tackled and annoying task, so I can’t really say that this was fun, but there’s …

My trip is getting closer. This is one of my last days in germany. And it feels strange. In my chest I feel pain and I’m not sure if it is actually related to my travels. I’m don’t know where it comes from. While ordering a coffee, the waiter asked me how I was doing. …
