Though I have been living in Georgia for 3 and a half years, I have never talked much about shopping in Georgia or Tbilisi. Starting today I decided to change that.
My first recommendation for those who are looking for shopping fun in Tbilisi will be Tbilisi Mall.
If I remember correctly - it was first opened at the end of 2012 and soon find its way to the hearts of customers.
One of the anchor tenants here is the Carrefour store, according…
Fire wok Tbilisi is a small, I would call it a boutique Wok place located on Shalva Dadiani street (close to Liberty square).
Here you can have noodles or rice woks for a really democratic prices.
Fire Wok Tbilisi
There is not much place inside - so if you are planing to take you loved ones to Fire Wok - it won't be best place to sit around a table and talk about your impressions of Tbilisi. Instead you can order food for takeaway and…

I recently attended the Winter Charity Fair organized by the International Women's Association Georgia for the third or fourth time. Based on my past experiences, I arrived early at the Sheraton Metekhi Hotel to purchase some goods from the US and participate in the Bottle Bank game at the UK stand.
The objective of the Winter Charity Fair organized by the International Women's Association Georgia (IWAG) is to raise funds for projects in…

Drupal is a popular content management system that allows users to create complex websites with a wide range of features and functions. One of the most useful features of Drupal is its ability to create views, which are customizable displays of content that can be filtered and sorted in a variety of ways.
One useful type of filter is the distance filter, which allows users to filter content based on their proximity to a particular location. In…
We stayed at this hotel about a month ago, during our one week Catalonia trip, in which we actually drive even to Andorra, so this hotel was our last hotel in Spain before departing back to Georgia.
To book this hotel we chose hotwire.com (they offer secret deals - you kinda buy a cat in a sack - but you don't need to worry about a bad product, you could get - there are major hotel brands, that are not willing to tell others - they are selling…
It has been a while since I decided to build my first Android app powered by Drupal.
Actually, I haven't built any other kind of app yet. But I have investigated a few options though.
My findings to the day are DrupalGap.org
I'm still investigating this tool, so for reference, I will list information from drupalgap.org. In the coming days/weeks and months, I will do my best to complete my first App built on the surface of Drupal. I'm planning…
I had an honour to participate in event called Start-up challenge Georgia, which was held in Sheraton Metekhi in Tbilisi, Georgia.
I had a chance to listen to speakers like James Chung, Spike Morelli, Marco Rubin and Warren Haber. Most interesting from what I hear I found on presentation of James Chung, his case study of investing venture capital in AgaMatrix company was pretty interesting.
Here is what this event is all about:…
This happened at the last days of October 2014, when after a week long travels around Catalonia we finally returned back to our starting point - Barcelona.
And so we decided to visit some local attractions. We all probably are familiar that one of the must have attractions in Barcelona is La Sagrada Familia cathedral, though we find this famous attraction, we refused to stay on a very long queue to get there in.
Another attraction we decided…
TBSC consulting approached me for help - to help them out to secure their existing site, which was built on Joomla.As a true Drupaller I offered them - can we switch CMS from Joomla to Drupal? And they agreed. Here is what we got:TBSC Consulting Front PageThis site is built with help of some standard Drupal modules, and is availiable in two languages (English and Georgian)TBSC GeorgianAlthough work on this site didn't request a lot of creativity…
This was a great Saturday - our friend took us on a Kakheti drive - we went to Telavi (they have a great market there), Tsinandali (here is a house museum of Alexander Chavchavadze) and then we went to Royal Batoni near Ilia;s lake close to Kvareli. I decided to capture something from all of it - and in this post you will find pictures I captured at Alexander Chavchavadze house museum.
First time I was here around 3 years ago, also in…
Another spontaneous idea of visiting Montserrat Mountain arrived at our heads, after Google Maps misguided us from the main traffic road to Barcelona, and we went on the wrong direction - but hey - we noticed a sign directing to Montserrat.
Signs speak themselves.
Update: Visit of Mount Montserrat was a place from our about week long travels across region of Catalonia in Spain and Andorra. (Originally this article…
One thing I like about travel - is to choose hotels on site (who needs a booking systems? ).
So did happen this time, when we chose this 2 star hotel in Ordino, Andorra. As you might already now, Andorra is a tinny micro state sandwiched between Spain and France, so if you travel here by car, it's nothing tragic to drive out of capital city Andorra La Vella to find your perfect hotel.
After few minutes drive, we found ourselves in town/village…
Have you ever heard something of a tiny microstate of Andorra? I had, but my knowledge was short - so short, I didn't realize the precise location of it - I mean, I knew it's somewhere sandwiched between Spain, France or maybe France and Italy or even Spain and Portugal. In other words - yes I knew that such a place exists, but knew nothing more about it. Now I'm a little bit smarter in my Geography :)
So, how I got there? It all went…
At first- I am too tired and wordless to write a 500 words/day minimum word post.
Second - decided to stop cycling in unsafe streets of Tbilisi.
Third - my blog cracked 20,000 unique visitors in total (counting since October 2013)
Forth - yesterday seems affiliate sales generated me more than $100
There are days we should be happy about our existence and complain less about things we don't have. Though, something bad almost happened…
During our one week trip in Spain, region of Catalonia, we did a lot of driving. We drove almost all around Catalonia, stayed at lovely Costa Brava townlets - and you know what? It's more than enough with one week - and you are sick and tired of completely identical seaside town lets. They are nice, they are charming... but if you need more - go away from those charming town lets with beautiful seaside views.
At least we did so - after another…
