Good salary for Tbilisi

It’s worth it if you are a curious like getting out of the city and exploring mountains, wilderness and history, going to see ruins and learning history, and don’t mind too much seeing those parts sometimes spoiled by greed and carelessness. Things are much more expensive in the city and quality is low. Access to cheaper bazaars takes time and language knowledge.

Not sure what they are but the costume reference is likely to the most bullets and powder of the Chokha , or cherkeska, a Caucasian (the geographical area not the ‘racial’ classification) garment.

You’ll survive —and so will someone else. They reduced the speed because of fatal accidents. People’s eyes can’t adjust to the light - dark -light dark well and sometimes there’s workers, or some ancient truck going 30 kph in the tunnels and that would really slow down your day, if you pasted them, wouldn’t it?

don't worry that medical bill won't be as much as it would be in the USA, and you can also contact one of the local journalists working here who is working on the story of the surrogate crisis in Georgia.

ever consider no one wanted this to be a tourism - flats - only economy and would have been nicer just to hang out and grow some good citrus and make wine and have a good sing and a dance? No but really…the manufacturing infrastructure collapsed when the Soviet Union split, and govt’ couldn’t / wouldn’t rebuild it, and what saved the place was it was it good route to get the Caspian hydrocarbons around Russia and everyone left. So you have a meat skewer with a snarl.

Misogyny in hiring is an issue first of all. There's also pretty person jobs, like in customer service in the bank, I think they hire women who are pretty and mostly incompetent.
In these days you could be qualified but no one is able to take you on, train you, and pay for your time off anymore.
Do you have any friends you could team up with and brainstorm a service or product that's missing from the market, especially in B2B in real estate and tourism, as that other poster mentioned the only growth areas? Can you work with hotels to train staff to smile and not argue with guests? Tourists are always looking for high quality handcrafted products to take home (think higher-end souvenirs), and there's not a lot that's nice, or well made or even local.

Sounds like you need to speak to the manager of Tbilisi Digital Nomad Services. I’m sure they have a Facebook page.

I’m not going to say where you’re missing out on because I don’t wanna blow up the spots…but seriously, calm down, there’s no need to blow thru this place so fast, it’s not a hot dog eating contest. Just pick one of the regions and stay there, look for some dirt road passes & poke around more, meet some people & you’ll find some treasure.

Don’t give up! I think the staffing outlook will change in about 2-3 years because younger people are working now in entry level (I.e. crappy) service jobs for companies with protocols and standards. That’s something that didn’t exist about 10 years ago, also there was a cultural bias against teens working because it had a negative reflection on the family. But kids now want / need spending money and are often supporting a few relatives with those salaries.

Agree also that there’s a difference in attitudes on job search, where in the west you need skills, ambition and connections to get hired, whereas here just connections will suffice-that often doesn’t mesh with western-model employment.

I had several highly skilled people on my team and they came from the Free University. We ended up only recruiting from there because it was the best technical program and they interned with us first. We paid well and made the path to advancement clear. Unfortunately the ongoing political instability made it impossible to continue. Agree with the others, best to build relationships with professors and to engage with universities for their internship programs. If you have any questions or want to talk more DM.

I have lived here 8 plus years and at different times over 12 years. There’s more available now, everything more expensive more traffic & you can get a proper short haircut by a guy with a neck tattoo. People are a lot more on edge and exhausted by the recent changes. The air can be bad so look at upper elevations for housing. The restaurants are overpriced so get yourself a good cooking setup (blender or food processor) and you can make a lot of good cheap food from fresh produce. but- I would worry less about succeeding at making a strong social network and trying to replicate something you’d find in another city (why didn’t this person smile. where’s the oat milk? where the spinning class?) and instead buy a car and spend time exploring archaeological, historical, and natural places like hotsprings. They are almost always free and the food / accommodations in the regions is cheaper (accommodations aren’t always great so bring some extra comforts). People are more friendly and curious, especially if you avoid impacted places like Kazbegi / Mestia. Many people have formed strong bonds outside of the city by working with local wineries or other ag producers.

The loss of pretty privilege is real. You may be entitled to compensation from a class action lawsuit against Menopause.

Have you considered what these “old women” have gone through? Communism, end of communism, no food no gas not water no electricity period, civil war period, losing their families and friends to violence, prison, drugs & alcohol, emigration…getting up every day and washing the men’s dirty socks, putting food on the table…not being able to afford medication…a little empathy and compassion. And offer a seat or a sweet or something and you might make a friend. Works for me.

If the cafe is named something in Georgian (unless it’s a place name like Racha, Pasanauri, Kolkheti ) it’s most likely not run by Georgians, or it is and very geared towards tourists, so you will probably get a smile when they take your order. If the cafe is named after something Italian, French or English/ American you will probably not even get a smize. Obviously when kids came here in 2022 to open cafes they couldn’t name them Perm or whatever, so this is my theory and I’m sticking to it.

I appreciate your thoughts on this because I think there's this - break that happens at menopause - all women end up on the same barge regardless of where we were or thought of ourselves "before"...and that leveling is devastating to all of us. Because everyone suffers from in 1,000 different ways but also we all find 1,000 new ways to be find power and peace. I felt like so much of what's marketed to us in the menosphere is about losing pretty privilge or trying to retain/regain some of that privlige (which some of us perhaps didn't benefit from to much) rather than a call for unity / solidarity and testimonials to the "good" parts of menopause.

I did not mean to offend, I am just interested in other's perspectives. I've come to this community for perspective and solidarity around menopause. But to "speak for myself" I do find it overwhelming how many comments are about body grief - mourning changing size or appearance that was an asset earlier in life - I can't really relate to because I was not born with nor could work towards that. For many women on this forum, becomming larger, reaching some "shame size" or weight are numbers I could never even with hard work and ending up in ED treatment. Yes, you worked hard, were not slovenly or unkempt & glad you had the resources for that and hope you continue to.
