Hello Dari. I just discovered your channel. You did a great job on this video, its very informative. I am particularly interested in Georgia as another RU-vid content provider who I follow has recently moved there as well. from Russia. She is Natasha from Natasha’s Adventures . Just thought I would throw that out there. Its always fun to meet new people. I will be looking forward to another episode from you and once again, great job and enjoy the sunshine. BTW, I watch from Vancouver Canada.

@MacroAnarchy Год назад

I was really intrigued by Georgia and wanted to visit/move there for a while now, but recently I heard things changed a lot during the war because of the many refugees. Rent seems to be up a lot and food prices as well. Thanks for the video giving a better understanding of the current situation.

Looks nice food it little less than in states I see some same brands in the store I'd like to see the beer selection if they have American euro beer is a little heavy for me like in mexico they have budweiser but it's expensive compared to domestic brands they all so reuse the bottles so it's even cheaper here we recycle cans and bottles but the their made into new ones but ya glad your having good experience thanks for sharing lots good info

@RussianPlus Год назад

Great video! I like Tbilisi. You’re right those gypsies are pretty annoying. I came to a few people’s rescue when they were being hypnotized by the gypsies. Oh the gypsies hate it when someone interrupts their daily criminal activities😂. They start cursing you out so loud people on the other side of the street can hear it😂.

@McTroyd Год назад

Sounds like an awesome place. If Georgia manages the population influx correctly, you just might start to see some of those city developments come to pass. It's definitely inexpensive compared to the US though -- your grocery take would have been more like US$60 in my part of the country, and we live in a relatively cheap area. Great perspective; thanks! 👍

@DariStep Год назад

Thanks for sharing your thoughts 💭

@peak6744 Год назад

Thanks for the insight into living in Tbilisi - great to see that you're enjoying it.

@Blackadder75 Год назад

Btw your little jar of Pesto Genovese is quite expensive compared to west europe, but the rest of the groceries seemed reasonable I can buy that size of pesto of supermarket quality for 5-8 Lari here It looks like everything processed is more expensive than in the Netherlands (olive oil, butter) and everything unprocessed is slightly cheaper (vegetables, fish etc) But all together I was surprised how expensive your food is. I thought it would be cheaper.

@cerealport2726 Год назад

With rents that high is not very attractive for digital nomads, and it was on my list to go later next year but, I think I need to make other plans.

Also you are so awesome for continuing to do the grocery store price comparisons. I find this fascinating I don't know why. I like to compare grocery prices to my own country

@ZeeHilal Год назад

I honestly don't want to flood your channel, but in the age of being submerged in information, I truly only can watch few videos anymore on RU-vid as they bore me. Your channel NEVER bores me, and along with amazing cinematography it is filled with REAL practical info. Anyways take care! We love you!

@evegreenification Год назад

I was just listening to a RU-vidr complain about inflation in the US. He said that for 24 dollars he got 3 bottles of water and one cup of coffee. Georgia seems like it is managing its currency better than that.

@valuetraveler2026 Год назад

good honest appraisal - its on my list but agree probably not long term and the current situation with rents is an issue. Ive heard the second city might be better. I guess you can speak Russian everywhere no problem

@kbtred51 Год назад

Dari - only Tblisi has those fares. Wizzair flies from Kutaisi.

@SacredSecret Год назад

I would love to come and stay a while in your homeland, if only the rulers were more friendly. The food you bought would be about 2 or 3 more times expensive here in the US. It was a pleasure to see you express yourself again. Thanks Dari.

@TheRoxas40 Год назад

What's about the language spoken there? Do normal/everyday people speak (next to there georgian) another language? How is reading everyday stuff (like signs or menues cards in restaurants) for you? Is some stuff written in russian too? Or maybe even in german? 😜 Greetings from Switzerland!

@DariStep Год назад

Many people know English here (or Russian what is convenient for me ahaha) You can find English translation in the touristy places, metro, restaurants and museums - so it should not be a problem in Tbilisi.

@Blackadder75 Год назад

Is the month May a good time to visit Tbilisi? I never considered it before, but I have 2 weeks holiday in May and I am looking to help local economies with my travel plans and not go to the standard Spanish or Italian holiday resort (nothing against those countries, I love them, but now I want to bring the little money I can spend on travel to people who need it more.) Turkey is another option for me, because of the earthquake.

@DariStep Год назад

Yes, May is a perfect month to visit Georgia!

@charlesknowles7936 10 месяцев назад

More expensive than I thought. Looks great though!

@cain8134 Год назад

No worries ;) thank you for the reply check out Vancouver Canada if you ever travel .take care .

@jeroen1158 Год назад

That's a lot of information in a 20 minute video. You put it together very well. In the supermarket I saw the Georgian writing on the products. I could not understand anything :-) What languages are spoken by the locals there? How much English is spoken there? Looking forward to your next adventures and videos. I'm glad to see you looking so happy and at home there in Tbilisi.

@DariStep Год назад

The luck of English translation in the groceries is a bit of a problem sometimes ahaha Fortunately, there are many Russians products which I know ahaha Many people speak English here, especially young generation! The older one isn’t so much tho - but it’s enough for basic communication

Dari I did a virtual flight over Tbilisi and I saw a very tall triangular shaped building/skyscraper built on a hill. What is that exactly. Very strange, as to why would anybody want to build a skyscraper on the slope of a hill.

I'm glad you are enjoying yourself. Congratulations on setting up the startup for the kids. How did your home cooked dinner turn out. Did you enjoying cooking at home growing up? Some places here in the yard the snow is three to four feet high and it's -11.5 C right now at 9am. Take care and stay healthy and safe as always Dari.

@kennethnyhuus3768 Год назад

Truly an amazing video Dari. Good job as always 😊 Love your banner and thumbnail 🤩Great to see how busy and productive you've been, hope you have time to sleep once in a while ☺ It seems like Georgia is a very nice Country, and if you feel safe I'm sure it is... except the cable cars and the evil children 😅 Regarding prices in Denmark, I'm unsure, depends if you are one or two or a family... Food spendings in total, I think two people in average for 1 month would use about $500, and a single person about $250, and a family of 4 could be $750. Btw nice to see they have Lurpak butter (danish butter) 😂 I wish you and your fellow digital nomads a prosperous and happy year 🥰
