Dedoplistskaro is a small town in Kakheti, Georgia with a population of about 6,000. Distance to Tbilisi about 130 km, about 2 hour drive.  I first had an idea of buying a house in Dedoplitskaro a few years ago, back then I was researching the whole of Georgia and Dedoplitskaro stayed the top of the list because the buying price seemed one of the lowest in the country. When speaking with locals (not from Dedoplitskaro) - I was told that the place is not good, with snakes, earthquakes, and a…

At the start of May, Oskars invited us to visit his new hut in Kakheti. After a few stops at McDonald's, Sighanghi, and Bodbe monastery we finally reached Vazisubani, where we were greeted with traditional Georgian supra and a lot of chacha. Now, there is one more cool place where they speak Latvian to visit in Georgia. Enjoy the video and Thumbs up! Filmed with DJI Mavic Air 2 and Samsung Galaxy phone, Georgia May 13-14, 2022

Good afternoon from sunny and hot Tbilisi. The weather was scorching today, reaching +32 Celsius. The morning started with an interesting message to the blog's contact form - an Estonian person was asking some questions about military sites in Latvia, we exchanged a few e-mails and talked both about Latvian and Estonian abandoned military sites. Information about former Latvian radar base Skrunda-1 Hello, Reinis I read your post about Skrunda-1 and also did some internet ''research''. And…

The morning started with the kiddo having a little fever (temperature 37 C). Decided to leave her at home and observe, as this Friday we have our first school concert. It would be very sad to miss. Sent a message to Ms. Nino. Yesterday - the car just stopped working, or won't crank. Already for the third time, this year ordered caru.ge to service the car. As the car was parked in Vake I went to the office in the morning to meet the service guy in the afternoon. Traded a bit of bitcoin futures…

The calm waters mirrored the clear blue…

Yesterday I visited the crypto club event at Local Tbilisi. Met a bunch of smart guys, mostly expats, was fun to watch bitcoin love/hate talks, listened to stories about investing in alt-coins. Been there, and seen that.  As you might already know - I'm neutral on crypto, neither bullish nor bearish. Prefer to trade Bitcoin futures. With a smile, listened to the crypto talks about where should bitcoin go next, some saying bitcoin will have support at $20,000 some said at $18,000. nevertheless…
