Five Reasons to Visit Old Tbilisi

October 24, 2018 By Hangry Backpacker Leave a Comment

Tbilisi is the capital of Georgia (the country), a tiny place most people know little, if anything, about.

The Magnolia State! I've always thought Magnolia The Magnolia State! 

I've always thought Magnolias are cool flowers, all the way back to 3rd grade when I brought one from my grandparents house to show the class.  Nyctinasty (plant circadian rhythm!) - fascinsting how they respond to light, opening in the day and closing at night. Not sure the other 8-9 year olds were impressed 😆
