Hi, I am Georgian. I love watching your videos, they are interesting and enjoyable ❤️ I am so sorry about drunk driver, it is really risky, especially in Svaneti, as I know there roads are quite dangerous and difficult to drive. It is irresponsible behavior. It's good that everything ended well. despite such kind of unpleasant situations I hope that you enjoyed visiting Georgia.

Hello from Guria - a small region of Georgia! To be honest, it is bad when you see a drunk driver driving marshutka, but it seemed he got used to drinking alcohol ( we oft drink wine) so that it didn't influence him :dd I would suggest you see my region - Guria with its fantastic places such as Atsana village, resort Bakhmaro, and Gomismta! Welcome to the country of adventures!

Hello Tea! Thank you so much for your recommendation! We can't wait to come back to Georgia to film more and will definitely come to Guria 😊 So, about the driver hahaha. He told us that he hasn't been drinking for a month before that day ahahaha But I guess he is still used to it 😅

Georgian dogs are so cute! I think the weather and altitude just makes them so cute and fluffy! Driving in Sri Lanka, especially in the Hill Country (central province) where the tea plantations are is also very precarious. If you are ever in SL, I recommend taking the train to the Hill Country. It takes about 8 or so hours and the view is great! Driving is also possible but just be aware of the hairpin curves and the bad driving. Driving in London is tame compared to SL haha! Great video as always

@@MattandJulia That's the 9 arch train line. I took the train from Colombo to Nuwara Eliya and the 9 archway isn't far from there! The weather is a lot cooler in the Central Province so provides a good escape from the humidity of the other provinces. I would recommend guesthouses and homestays too in SL. Maybe the quality won't be the same as hotels but it's a lot cheaper and feels good to support the local directly. You can go to the 4 and 5 * hotels for food and to use their swimming pools (you will have to pay extra) so it's worth exploring. Also the bakeries are really nice! They are a lot sweeter than the UK ones ahaha! I hope you do get the chance to visit SL and enjoy Armenia!

I took a marshrutka from Tbilisi to Yerevan in '19. Driver stopped just inside Armenia to buy 50kg of oranges, and then later a car door. He had to give in back when he found there was no space for it in the van. He also took the route which passes through a bit of occupied Azerbaijan. .
