Tbilisi, Georgia
I haven't even finished sorting the pictures from previous weeks trip to the US but stuff happend in the meantime. I was supposed to fly Ryanair out of Bremen - a first for me. Instead I ended up in 20cm snow in Tbilisi, Georgia.
I was casually surfing the L'tur Lastminute website when I found a good deal to Tbilisi. Why Tbilisi? A friend whom I went to seconday school with is currently in Tbilisi working for a private company backed by the German Federal Government focusing on development work in those kind of countries. Last year we met again and it was obvious that I would have to come visit. A few teasing photos later I added the TBS airport code to my automatic searches for cheap flights. With a trip priced at half the usual cost and perfect flight times (leaving friday after work, return just in time monday morning for a conference call) I could not resist.
Once I contacted my friend and she confirmed that she would have time (and that I could crash at her place saving some serious money) I booked the flight. Eight hours later I was on board a small Austrian Airlines plane that would bring me to Tbilisi via Vienna.
More impressions and some interesting photos will follow. In a nutshell I had a blast and will be back for sure.

Well ... I could do both ;)

No you won't :-). Instead you'll make a roundtrip to Atlanta again to eat your chinese chicken and gather the so-precious miles ;-)
