nice photos
Hi Tom, I was a Peace Corps Volunteer, teaching English in Georgia for the last three years and loved it. Although I know of Pasanauri, I unfortunately never visited. I was in Chokhatauri. You have taken beautiful photos to express the beauty of this unique country and culture. Thank you!
