When people asked us why do we want to travel to Georgia so much, one of our answers was: the food. True, Georgian cuisine might not be very known to the rest of the world but in Poland you can get it quite a lot and boy, is it good! So no, it wan’t the first time for us trying Georgian food but the truth is, none of our previous experiences can even compare to what we’ve had a chance to taste during our trip.
Georgia was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Everything we imagined and more. The people, the landscape, the food (oh, the food!), the wine. Our dream journey come true. There'll be a lot more details about our trip coming soon but for now I just wanted you to enjoy with me the unbelievable colours of fall in the Caucasus Mountains.
Aka the craziest, most spontaneous, unbelievable and definitely the cheapest trip to date. But how did that happen? As I remember it , there wasn't really a plan for that. There was a slightly bored me in the middle of my gap year (between high school and university) scrolling through Fly4Free looking for an inspiration for the next trip.
It is true that moving to London involves a vicious circle of dependancies and it’s very easy to get lost and frustrated in the process. A very good example: you need a bank account in order to rent a flat but you can’t open a bank account if you don’t have a permanent address in the UK… What the actual f**k?!

I can’t remember last time I was so impressed with just how beautiful a city is (perhaps the first time I visited Paris years ago). I know we got lucky with the weather (almost no rain and beautiful sunshine for the whole weekend) and did choose a charming season to visit (full spring = the city covered in blossoms and very little tourists), but I do believe you will be as impressed no matter when you visit.
So this is the way we travel - we wander. Prior to our trip I of course plan a bit ahead, prepare a Google map with some landmarks to see, or particular spots I would like to pass by, some restaurant recommendations I have… but the principal is just to walk around and see where we get.
Living in London is great (yes, and you hear it from me, who’s been complaining about living in Paris for the last 3 years). It does have its obvious downsides though - it’s expensive, crowded, polluted… well, nothing new really but definitely enough to make you feel like you need a break once in a while.
Right after our wedding we headed to the beautiful Cadaques for some quality family time. There’s no better place to do that – the weather is always nice, the surroundings are just breath taking, sangria poured everywhere and tapas as good as they should be. What else do you need, really?
