I’m Reinis Fischer - a blogger, founder, options trader, and investor based in Georgia. This site is my personal blog about Georgia and the world I build from here: useful places, practical observations, business, travel, food, stocks, digital assets, and the people you meet along the way.
I have been a long-term expat in Georgia since 2011. Over the years, Georgia has become one of my main bases — a place for family life, online projects, investment research, options trading, digital asset strategies, and many good conversations over coffee, beer, khachapuri, or long hike through Tbilisi
This site is here to make Georgia easier to understand for internationally minded people: travelers, expats, founders, investors, traders, analysts, freelancers, remote workers, and curious readers who want more than another generic travel guide.
What This Blog Is About
Here I write about life in Georgia, Tbilisi and Batumi, restaurants and cafes, travel notes, business, online projects, investing, useful local observations, and conversations with people building things from the Caucasus.
Sometimes that means a restaurant note. Sometimes it means a reflection on doing business in Georgia. Sometimes it means a travel story, a practical local observation, or a note about why Georgia works as a base for independent people.
Why Georgia
Georgia is a small country with an unusually strong pull.
It has mountains, sea, wine, food, hospitality, complexity, contradictions, and a strong sense of place. It is affordable in some ways, surprisingly sophisticated in others, and constantly changing.
Tbilisi has energy, history, cafes, founders, freelancers, artists, investors, and people passing through. Batumi has the sea, slower days, summer crowds, restaurants, and a different rhythm.
For me, Georgia is not only a travel destination. It is a place where life, business, family, and long-term projects meet.
Who This Site Is For
You may find this site useful if you are planning your first trip to Georgia, thinking about spending time in Tbilisi or Batumi, interested in Georgia as a base for remote work or online business, curious about restaurants and cafes, exploring business or investment ideas connected with Georgia, or looking for practical observations rather than polished tourist brochures.
Not everything here is a recommendation. Sometimes it is simply a record of what I saw, tried, learned, or would do differently next time.
Business and Founder Notes
Georgia is also a practical base for building projects.
I write about online business, blogging, SEO, AI tools, translation work, investing, and the process of building independent projects from here.
This is where my personal founder experience comes in.
Travel Notes
Travel has always been part of this blog. I keep travel notes because they show the broader context of how I live, move, compare places, and think about Georgia from an international perspective.
Georgia remains the center, but the wider region and Europe also appear from time to time.

Want to Meet in Georgia?
One of the best parts of writing online is that sometimes it leads to real-world conversations.
If you are visiting Georgia, living here, relocating, building a company, investing, working remotely, or simply curious about the country, I am sometimes open to meeting for coffee or beer in Tbilisi or Batumi when schedules allow.
Good topics include Georgia life, Tbilisi and Batumi, online business, blogging and SEO, AI tools, investing, crypto, stock options, translation business, useful places in Georgia, and long-term independent work.
I cannot promise availability, and I do not offer free consulting by default. But if there is a clear reason to connect, send a short message with who you are, when you will be in Georgia, and what you would like to discuss.
