For most of my crypto ventures, I have been dealing with Coinbase and my bank account in the EU, which supports SEPA payments. Most of the time, I've been happy with the existing setup. When dealing with crypto in Georgia in GEL currency I have been skeptical or simply not in a real need for it - I know there exist a few crypto ATMs across the city, but the slippage seems too high (5-12%)  for me, also - crypto and GEL didn't sound very appealing to me. A few months ago, for my partner's…

Life and Business in Georgia - or another awesome weekend has been recorded - Together with a business partner from Canada exploring construction sites in Tbilisi, building relationships while hiking around Turtle lake, and sipping hot wine with Guliani.

Unforgettable Fall break from QSI Tbilisi to the picturesque region of Racha. From lush vineyards to charming wooden cottages, from hiking above the clouds to stumbling upon a defunct cable car station, our adventure had it all. So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a virtual tour filled with nature, culture, and a touch of rustic charm.Taking advantage of the convenient 30-minute flight from Tbilisi to Ambrolauri with Vanilla Sky, our journey began with anticipation and excitement. Racha…

This is the topic I first encountered many many years ago, well actually back in these days it was more about buying a property in Tbilisi and renting it out with the option of selling the property in a few years with profit.  Throughout the years I've been contacted by investors from all around the world (literally from Italy to Australia and Brazil) interested in Tbilisi rental market. My simple question always has been - what is the return on investment? ROI?  As a person with a strong…

Another awesome weekend in Georgia 🇬🇪- with some elements of offroad riding, hiking, camping, horseback riding near Likani station, and a few skulls at Green monastery Saturday. Back to Rustavi scout center for a lovely Sunday with fellow Latvians.  Our last weekend trip with VW Touareg. 

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…
