Hello :)

This is part two of an overview of my recent trip to the Caucasus region of Eurasia, and covers the five days I spent in the country of Georgia, mainly the capital city Tbilisi. I also talk about far too much cheese and garlic, the worst beer I've ever had in my life, 

Topics discussed in this episode are:
* Audio quality of recent episodes
* Problems when your debit card gets cancelled
* Arrival in Tbilisi
* First experience with Georgian food
* Transport in Tbilisi
* The Georgian National Museum
* Beer and bars in Tbilisi
* Uplistsikhe - the city built into a sandstone hill
* Food in Tbilisi
* The overnight train to Yerevan
* Tbilisi street sculptures
* The cable car and the Mother Georgia statue
* Being enby in Georgia

A PDF transcript of this podcast is available.

As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. I have a newsletter with extra content, and where I'll be mentioning future podcast episodes if you want to make your own contribution.
