The rainbow mountains and Overland Haven in Georgia (November 2023)

We continued on an off-road route in the direction of Vashlovani National Park. The short off-road track was nice and easy and we saw amazing landscapes and interesting old monasteries.

After the off-road track, we met again with Adela, Alvaro, Roxane and Vincent and together we went to the Overland Haven (see it on Google Maps).

Sarah and Grant were building up the Overland Haven after they came to Georgia from Australia.

Wippel-Woop-Woop-Wipke (aka Nora), a lovely and bit crazy German car traveler, was helping them building up the place.

We helped them installing water pipes and walls and at night we had a big, big Georgian dinner. All together and everybody had contributed something.

It was amazing and a lot of fun. And it was not the last time we would see Wippel.

Back in Katshki and lovely new friends (October 2023)

We went back to Katskhi for some more climbing and it was awesome as always! We met Lasha, a Georgian Climber, climbed together and shared our meals. Cindy and I did a small hike in that area and visited the small chapel on the stone pillar.

And this time our visit of Katskhi was very special because we met our lovely friends Adela and Alvaro for the first time. At a rainy day, Cindy knocked at the door of tha van and from there on we did a lot of climbing together, played a lot of Exploding Kittens and had so much fun. Spending time with them was just hilarious!

After Katskhi, Racki and I went again to Sveri for some climbing. Adela and Alvaro joined us and together we enjoyed the Via Ferrata with the magnificent swing. It was my third time, but it was again awesome!
