A discussion in English of the week in Georgia (the one near Chechnya not the one near Alabama) Don't know what a podcast is? Don't worry, just click on it and listen. კეთილი იყოს თქვენი მობრძანება! თუ ინგლისური იცით, დააჭირეთ ისარს და მოისმინეთ კვირის საინტერესო ამბები
Don't know what a podcast is? Don't worry, just click on it and listen. That's it. Nothing scary about it.
კეთილი იყოს თქვენი მობრძანება! თუ ინგლისური იცით, დააჭირეთ ისარს და მოისმინეთ კვირის საინტერესო ამბები.
The MEME this week a photo of Georgian Dream’s mayoral candidate for Tbilisi, Dato Narmania, posted by UNM MP Givi Targamadze. In the photo, Narmania is, in Targamadze’s words, crouching in a “spiderman-like pose” on a beach and cutting a watermelon. Targamadze titled the photo “spiderman and UNM’s secret casket.” The photo went viral and inspired many caricatures on Facebook. Link: http://on.fb.me/1piKPx0
