Today was all about the departure. We spent the morning packing, weighing, and repacking. Eventually, we managed to have all our luggage weigh at least half a kilo under the...

Borjomi was covered in snow, it was clever of me to go to the mountains. After having coffee with Natalia, I wanted to continue as long as the roads still looked somewhat...
