What You Could Get in Tbilisi for $10 – Get Busy in Georgia’s Capital City

2 Comments / football, georgia, tips, travel, what you could get in the city for $10 / By

Hello everyone, rogor khar?!

In case you’re wondering whether I spoke gibberish at that point, just know that it’s Georgian word for ‘how are you?’. And when I said Georgia, I mean Georgia the tiny country somewhere in Eastern Europe. Yes, not Georgia as in one of the states in the USA.

I’ve got a few good friends from Georgia, as I met them during my summer course almost 10 years ago in Turkey. In case you’re not familiar with the country, go google it now. For those who like football ever since the golden era of AC Milan in early 2000s, you might not know about the country, but you’re probably familiar with Kakha Kaladze.

If you knew his personal story about his late brother Levan, you might also take a bit of concern about the country as well. Just like what I did back then. Otherwise, you might want to know a little more about this country and what it can over for your wanderlust.

This week on What You Could Get In The City for $10, Chris from Worthy Go will share with us how far you could get in Tbilisi, the capital city of Georgia.

3 Things That I Hate About Watching Football During FIFA World Cup (As A Woman)

1 Comment / football, personal, uncategorized / By

For those who know me since 20 years ago, I think they know there’s no question that they know how I am a die-hard football fan.

I spent most of my adolescence watching football on TV. My mom even bought me a TV just because she couldn’t take it anymore when I often grumbled in the middle of the night, thanks to the time difference between Indonesia and some random country in Europe.

No kidding, back in the day, I literally watched every match from a big match like Brazil vs Germany to some teams that barely matter to anybody like Empoli vs Piacenza.

Nowadays, as I’m getting older, on regular days I’ve got more things to do so I stopped watching football on TV. Except for my favorite teams like Arsenal or Croatian National Football Team.

But then during FIFA World Cup season like right now, I’m back to my little ol’ me who would scream at the referee and complain about this and that just because I’m not satisfied.

It’s Saturday again, and getting closer to the opening ceremony of World Cup 2018 in Russia!

Anyone planning to watch the match live in the stadium? Because if so, I absolutely envy you. It’s always been my dream to watch the World Cup live in the stadium.

Never got any luck (or enough money) to do it, so I think with the visa-free for Indonesian passport holder in Qatar, my best (and nearest) opportunity to actually watch it will be in 2022.

But anyway, despite being sorry for myself and my passport and economy weakness, let’s try the feature for those countries in Group E and F for this World Cup! 😀
