Gamarjoba! Today is our last day in Tbilisi before we move to our host family in Zugdidi, west of Georgia. Our orientation has gone really well and we are impressed with how organised everything has been. We can now speak very basic Georgian and have a lot of knowledge on the country and it's culture.

When we returned to our room, we checked our emails to find that we had been sent our flight details to our n...

On Monday morning we left the snowy, magical town of Zakopane behind and caught an early coach back to Krakow. Upon arrival we realised that the sunny, dry capital had within a week also turned into a snowy, magical town and Joe was not best pleased as he was looking forward to some snow relief!
