The Country of Georgia is a Very Interesting Place
Here's Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/1fW40NIC2Tg/v-deo.html
*🏝️ ✠ Welcome in Georgia ✠ 🏝️*
My only wish is to meet you 😢
I love Georgia
I’ve been loving these Georgia videos! Great stuff! I really wanna go back to Georgia some time too! That country has so much to offer!
Love Georgia from Giorgia!!! Thanks for your amazing videos!!
Thanks Giorgia, nice name. :) Where are you from?
@@GabrielTravelerVideos From Italy 😀 Have you ever been there/here?
@@giorgiazaccone9583 I see. Yes I've been there twice. First time when I was 18 and I went by ferry from Greece to Brindisi and then to Venice, but I wasn't making videos then. Second time was last year when I went to Naples and Rome: ua-cam.com/users/gabejedmosearch?query=Italy And I'm part Italian, my great-grandfather went to America from Italy. So I'm 1/4 Italian. Which part of Italy do you live? I want to go back to see more sometime, I know there's so much more to explore there.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Yeah a lot to explore in few square kilometers, every small town has its own things that any other has... My country is strange, best and worst perfectly mixed together.. I'm from Piedmont, an area called Monferrato full of hills and wine!!
I see, sounds nice.
Wow Gabe, the sculptures on the wall at 14:06 are incredible, who knows how many hidden meanings🤐 Only thanks to your videos can I get to know so many unique and unknown places scattered all over the world a little. Your 🚡 journey was something else too 👍 ! Hope your cold will get better, take care...
Two guys boozing it up and you say, "Good morning". Funneeeeee...
Ahh a punch machine in the middle of the streets, I knew the UK was missing something! 😁
Millennial Travel Confessions they're everywhere in Georgia.
Do you know the story behind the relief sculpture at about 14:05? It's almost like a sculpted Bosch painting maybe of Georgian history? It looks like a fallen double eagle, a broken swastika, a devil, and other vanquished foes at the bottom. Interesting piece of work.
I don't know anything about it unfortunately, just came across it. Really amazing.
Aha (not). That part cracked me up
Have been AMAZED you hadn't got a cold earlier....was thinking since Turkey you hadn't been dressing well and in the Balkans the draughts catch you out very fast....it's deceptively cold........ good to see you're finally dressing well. Take care......
Nice video :) I will probably never visit this place in person, so thanks for bring it to me!
Glad to know I’m not the only one who has been fighting a cold... I’ve been in Florence, Italy pretty much just laying in bed, haha.
Hi there I’m planning to visit Georgia in this October i found your videos very helpful thanks man
Plz come to India ,Georgia is a nice country already seen in nomadic Indian videos....Lots of love from india
Love your video's and the hat!
i seriously though Georgia was a really nice place. it’s very cool but definitely run down. (also i know this isn’t the only place in georgia) but i’ve seen the schools and they’re pretty bad
Beautiful song
Haha nice video gabe , you played an Indian song on the way to kutaisi
thanks for your videos 😊
Awesome video man get well soon! Get some Garlic too!
I really enjoyed this video can you tell me about the song in the video
The music is listed in the description below the video.
When the cab driver started talking to you from 7:28 - 7:35 he was speaking German.
"street ... write ... street Marco Polo ... two Marco Polo ... little hostel and hotel ..."
ok.Very good.
While in Georgia be sure to see the Big Chicken
Sir... I love u... I m from India& i regularly watch your video.....
Today you add a Hindi song in this video.... So fantastic 😂😂
Sir When you come in india.... Meet me... PlZ
...I Am great fan of u....... Byyy
Dhanyavad
Tq so much..... Read my comment
Hii Gabe why don't u visit England....
I'm planning to go to London on this trip.
Hindi song in Georgia 😀😀😀😀 great🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Try some Borzhomi mineral water ! It's healthy !
Borjomi.
@@CafeNervoza Actually, this is the right way - ბორჯომი, but thanks anyway :)
Hahahaha 50 Lari for all of that shit? you got robbed my friend
nothing interesting there
That taxi driver spoke in russian and german to you. lmao
Batumi is must visit city in Georgia.
@Crypto Dreams I can't tell you exactly but if you want a small apartment it would be 200-300 lari which shouldn't be more than 100 dollars but if you're looking for a hotel it's less than 70 lari which shouldn't be more than 40 dollars (every night)
@Crypto Dreams I live in Tbilisi Georgia and a descent single room apartment close to the city center cost around 300 - 400$, you can get cheaper but you wouldn't be impressed. The city is cheap and safe and the people are welcoming even to black foreigners which I happen to be.
Fascinating! Love to see these hidden gems--places, landscapes that are unfamiliar to most of us. Thanks Gabe.
Very nice video... Love you sir
Love from India
@Rashtriya Loktantrik Party hello
I am going there next month.. So be doing a road trip from tbilisi - gudauri - kutaisi - batumi... 🚗🚗
I wonder if Dane is still there, drinking with the locals
11 dollars for that room!? Wow, cheaper than I would expect
Cost you $150 US in Vancouver during high season.
@Daniel Chuckson Would cost you over $200 now! The problem with raising the minimum wages is everything goes up. You can't win.
@Daniel Chuckson You got this backwards. If the wages were 5 cents an hour then yes the rooms would cost $11 a night but the rooms per se are over $200 a night meaning the wages would have to be fairly high to afford these rooms, rent etc.
@Daniel Chuckson I've lived in Canada all my life. Lived in Vancouver as well. It's not cheap here.
Georgia seems really cool and interesting. Dane looked like a fun person to hang out with.
Yeah super cool guy!
Shooters and beers in morning. Brutal. Did your buddy Dane actually sleep the night before. Looks like he might have been up all night and morning drinking haha
3rd viewer i am watching ur videos since 3years plz visit pakistan reply must zafar from pakistan
Thanks for watching Zafar!
Will you be able to download your brain one day? Will be awesome!
Mr Gabriel.Eva zu beck leving the dream and mark wien and some other was in Pakistan but we are still wating for you please com to see Pakistan we love you and. Missing you 😍
They have Mcd's... Tragic
Believe it or not quiet lot of rich people live In places like that or peoples old family members like grand/grand grand parents while their kids and grand kids moved in newer and big cities. For rich people it's place to get away from modern lifestyle.
lemon n ginger kills any cold!
Wow that soundtrack was in Hindi/Urdu, so random yet so nice 😊
Interesting town,Kutaisi. Relaxed ambience in Georgia with the winter chill . I have a lot of respect for you keeping up with the schedules I mean traveling is a hard thing no? Great seeing all these new places . Roads are meant to wander. Stay safe.
Whos this asian dude always walking around with a bottle :))) Respect ma boyyyy
I'm inspired by you sir.
For your cold you may want to try a lemon and cumin tea it’s really good I’m sure in Georgia you can find it in grocery stores
The quest for real juice to quench a weary travelers thirst is unfruitful in most countries. I remember how thirsty I was all the time during international travel where water had to do. I did the same as you, went to a McDonald's for an OJ to find it was artificial Tang kind of drink instead of genuine juice. Big jugs of juice and milk in plentiful supply at what really are the best prices in the world for them is one of the things I love about America. I can guzzle enough juice and milk to sink a boat often with half price sales on organic stuff soon going out of date for there is just so much product abundance here.
aha! (not) - thanks for a great laugh! lost in translastion Georgian version
Can't get over how cheap the room is.
Don's travels and rants DON that’s a ripoff for georgians . I could get a room better than that for 8 bucks in kutaisi . I’m from georgia btw
Hello my friend,
Very nice video, only the problem is you moving the camera very quickly and fast, when you are showing something should give a few seconds and focus to that point. Rest all perfect
I've been interested in Georgia since I heard about the Transcaucasian Trail.
Sharp intro! I’m getting orange and pomegranate juice now! Hope it works! Lol.
I’d smash that record on the punch machine 😂
Hi Gabriel, which is the best of all places to invest in guest house/B&B according to you. Nice place great food and bargain price for property.
A rather improvised country considering so many different civilizations passed through ..so far the alphabet is most beautiful
I so enjoy your videos. I feel like I’m there experiencing the adventure. Cows on the highway 🛣!
Gabriel i feel little bit for you, if i see the view numbers on the last video's. Hope you can still keep doing what you do👍
Hey Gabriel. Butami is very nice and cheap. You should go there. Good travel
Awesome video! Thank you for putting out great videos! Love the background music during your bus ride. What is it?
Hi Sue, thanks, glad you enjoyed. The music is listed in the description below the video. It's the second song.
On the Greayhound bus watching this keep up the good traveling
Cool, enjoy the ride.
👍
Very Beautiful 😍👍
Georgia makes me spin out... Can't make sense of their script. Then I see this at 12:33 (McDonalds) Hahahahaha They're Everywhere.. Do they sell McQuail n Bacon Burgers?.. LOL... Cool Video Gabe. *Greg*
which soundtrack is this.From which Indian movie??
ahahaha that sick, i think the taxi driver for some reason tries to speak to you with some really bad greek language :) maybe he thought u greek
You're right.
Boxing games in the street... Is it very violent there?
No they just sit there
You’re looking tired Gabriel, get some rest with that cold :)
Jesus seriously. I want to go to Georgia but I still don give a shit.
*Will you visit Minsk?*
I love your camera work in this video, Gabriel! Feel better and safe travels.
Great, thanks a lot.
Very nice video bro
Hey Gabriel! I'm planning a trip to Tbilisi myself at the beginning of November and was wondering when you shot this video to figure out the weather lol. So when exactly was this? Looks a bit chilly to me.
This was in November.
Holy shit.... kutaisi... the only city in georgia i didnt like...
Beauty of Georgia is mindblowing😍
Stalin was georgian.
He was also jew
@@reichsfurherss7983 No he was not a jew. He was an atheist. I know cause I'm Georgian
@@reichsfurherss7983 Lol what nonsense. He studied in orthodox seminary
I do like the mismatch of using Indian music in Georgia at 5:30 of the video. I understand about copyrights, but it’s like using Siberian music for a South African video
LOL U went to McDonalds!!!!....
Gabe be careful walking on the road. There is pedestrian walkpath @ 4:30.
Anthony Carlo Coleto, He must not be accustomed to side-walks as there are practically no side-walks in the US. Everyone is on wheels.
new sub! you have all the countries I wanted to go to and your videos are simple and normal (if that makes sense) not so youtuber-ish or too many drones and aesthetics😂 just like an ordinary traveller
Cool, glad to hear it.
Gabriel, what are your top 5 favorite countries as far as value and cultural/food experience
....That taxi- driver said, "That bar over there has the cheapest beer, and the girls in there are pretty friendly.".................There were McDonald's and a Burger King in Prague....It's surreal to go into one in a foreign country and know more about the food than the locals do...
Haha, that's awesome, thanks.
Gold Shine, The taxi driver didn’t say that. He pointed to the Meskhishvili theater and some other places of interest.
I'll bet a lot of Georgians do speak Russian, even thought I have not seen any Russian signage. What was your perception of how much Russian was spoken and understood?
Pssst, please get your rest and take care of that oncoming cold, there, Gabriel.
Oh, let me break it down for you.
We are not obliged to speak any Russian.! As well, we are not obliged to speak any other foreign language. We have ancient local language(ქართული ენა). At school, you can choose any language of your interest: French, German, Russian, Swedish, etc.
Russian is spoken mostly by old generation(as mostly in post-soviet countries);
English is spoken mostly by new generation.
Also, here we have pariteté of every language, so from A to Z, you can freely speak any language; not such a "restrictions" that I've heard in other several countries..
Question for you: why did you ask about Russian exactly? Why not asking, for example, Estonian or Spanish?
Cheers
@@georgeswift984 Answer for you: Because Georgia was once occupied by The Russians, perhaps? Seems obvious to me why I asked what I did.
If I caused offence, please accept any apologies.
@@SuiGenerisAbbie got your point buddy!
No need to ask apology. contrary, I ask you apology if I offended you somehow.
Problem is, People sometimes consider countries from post-soviet experience, that they certainly have to speak Russian. It is false, of course.
You can not name me any post-soviet country with, Russian language heritage in the constitution, because it simply would be mistake.
It is another case, if we'd talk about post-soviet countries with neo-russian attachments... please, do your own research and I guarantee, you'll find out this sort of countries, even around Caucasus..
Another, and really important: previous government "destroyed" the notion of importance of Russian language(regarding its colonialistic attributions), and it became as a regular foreign language. (Of course, I am not escaping from, that Russian truly was the leading-burocratic language during soviet union times).
Best,
@@georgeswift984 I understand Sir. Thank you very much for your teachings! :) May you have a great day, please. Also, I must say that your English is EXCELLENT!
@@SuiGenerisAbbie Dear Sir, it was my pleasure to chat with you.
Expecting your visit to Georgia ;)
All the best,
Oh, I forgot to say that I love the freeze frame shots.
Hi. Just subscribed after watching a few of your vids; I like your style. I don't like the style of Georgia towns. They look very Soviet era. I've seen some videos of the countryside which looks beautiful. Thanks for the videos.
That taxi driver did not speak Georgian I would know I am Georgian
Megrulad laparakobda mgoni ara?
Surprised to hear that you have a cold. You're very rarely sick and it's because of all your walking and healthy diet. Keep on truckin mon ami. You're the best!
A bit of Russian would really help you in that part of the world mate. Although the taxi driver was actually speaking German!
This is pretty much almost thailand cheap. Planning for sure for next year..I think it’s cheaper than Thailand 😂
Family brother LOVE.......
Bro..Gabriel WE know you just got a new GoPro..
Did you looked into the GoPro Fusion 360..?
With a pc mouse WE would be able to zoom in/out & turn about..
& 360° will give vids another edge... from the rest.
the future is HERE in the NOW
LIFESssssss GO0D.......
B GO0D....... LIVELIFELOVE.......Xoxx
