Tbilisi, Georgia...my gosh what a gem! Living in Yerevan is a super easy trip to get up to Tbilisi, the capital of Gerogia, so lots of my friends have done the trip a few times to get a change of scenery.
This is actually the beginning of another 4-5 weeks of straight traveling - I decided to finish the Birthright program much earlier than expected because I was getting a bit antsy to continue to travel and see more of this region and the Middle East and cross a few places off of my bucket list. Tbilisi seemed like a beautiful place to start.
I think I was moreso excited to get out of Armenia and experience a new country and culture, which is why I loved Tbilisi so much. From all of the beautiful and vibrant cafes and restaurants, to wine country, the mountains, and the coast, Georgia as a country is sooo underrated and I highly recommend adding it to your list. All of these are what I thought made it such a great place.
I spent 3 days and 3 night in the capital exploring and sight-seeing, going to cafes, eating good food, and drinking good wine. I also spent a day in a northern city called Kazbegi (just south of the Russian border) and was absolutely blown away by the mountains up there. I cannot say enough about this day.
This episode features an interview with Konstintine, the owner of the hostel I stayed at in Tbilisi. He was born and raised in Tbilisi and is a true local through and through. I hope you all enjoy this one!

This episode of the pod will focus on one of the coolest and funkiest cities I've been to - Copenhagen! This was actually my second time in Copenhagen, and marking the first stop on a 6 week backpacking trip to visit family and friends in Europe before starting Birthright Armenia in May. My cousin Mikael from LA is living in Copenhagen for 6 months for an internship with the UN (casual) and I crashed with him for a few days and he showed me everything I missed the last time I visited Copenhagen.
Mikael and I absolutely killed it in the city - we hit a few museums, walked through the royal grounds and parks, Nyhavn, Christiana, had a night out with his co-workers, went to an improv show, ate some amazing food, and so much more. Copenhagen rocks, and I'm so glad that I got to experience it in the eyes of a local this time.
For Denmark as a whole hailing as the happiest country on earth, Copenhagen is a place to experience great art, music, culture, and people with any interests and backgrounds will absolutely find their niche. My conversations feature Mikael who gave me a whole rundown of his time in Copenhagen thus far, and I also spoke with Carl who works at a cafe next door to Mikael's apartment. I highly recommend traveling here at some point to experience a bit of Scandinavian culture - enjoy this one!
