Those last days in Georgia.
Adventures in Tbilisi
You might not be able to find what you need in a shop, advertised anywhere or on the internet, but somewhere, somebody “knows a guy.”
Cycling from Yerevan to Tbilisi: 4 days, 40 degrees and 0 showers.

Stay in a hotel for a night and make packed lunches or sleep on a pier and eat like a king?
