I'm a traveller, quite nomadic, half-American, half-Georgian. I'm a writer/poet/teacher/editor/translator/volunteer. I love discovering cultures, places, foods, and learning languages - I speak English, Georgian, okay Spanish, some French and a tiny little bit of German, Italian, and Greek. I love to read, to write, watch movies or TV shows, cook, eat, sit outside in the autumn sun with a cup of tea, have interesting conversations, stare at a mountain, simple things. ----- Hosting: please send me a message introducing yourself and even a stay request, I don't respond to "Hi, place to stay?"

I’m a graphic design student who loves art and meeting new people. Recently, I decided I want to travel more, step out of my comfort zone, and find myself through new experiences and cultures. I would love to volunteer while traveling, help people, and create meaningful memories along the way <3

Couchsurfing in Georgia: travel guide
Updated · Written for travellers staying with local hosts
Georgian hospitality is legendary, rooted in the saying that a guest is a gift from God, and hosts can be extraordinarily generous with food, wine and time. Tbilisi is a city of crumbling balconied houses, sulphur baths and a growing creative scene, and hosts there are often students, artists, young professionals and returning diaspora. In the regions, hospitality can be even more intense, with invitations to family feasts called supras led by a toastmaster, the tamada. Svaneti and Kazbegi are mountainous and remote, Kakheti is wine country, and Batumi on the Black Sea has a seaside resort feel. Georgians are proud of their unique language, alphabet and ancient wine traditions, and sharing a meal is the heart of any stay.
Where to couchsurf in Georgia
Getting around Georgia
Marshrutkas, shared minibuses, are the main way to travel between towns and leave from bus stations when full. Trains connect Tbilisi with Batumi and a few other towns, including comfortable overnight services. Shared taxis are common for mountain routes. Hitchhiking is very common and widely accepted, and drivers rarely expect payment. Tbilisi has a metro and buses, paid with a transport card or contactless.
Georgia on a budget
Georgia is affordable for most travellers. Khachapuri and khinkali are cheap, filling staples, and bakeries sell bread and pastries for very little. Local wine is inexpensive, and markets sell fresh produce cheaply. Marshrutkas keep transport costs low. Costs bite with tourist restaurants in central Tbilisi, private tours to remote areas and mountain accommodation in peak season.
Hospitality culture in Georgia
Guests are honoured, so expect to be fed generously and toasted often. At a supra, wait for the tamada to make toasts before drinking, and do not toast with beer, which is traditionally considered an insult. Shoes are often removed at home. Greetings include a handshake or kiss on the cheek among friends. Learning gamarjoba (hello) and madloba (thank you) is appreciated. Russian is widely understood among older people, while younger Georgians often speak English.
Best time to visit Georgia
Late spring to early autumn is ideal, with mountain treks best from June to September. The grape harvest in September and October is a great time to visit wine regions.
