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 is a photo published online by Tabula magazine of a ruined wheelchair ramp on the corner of Pekini and Budapest streets in Tbilisi. One month after it was put in, the ramp was blocked when the street was being fixed and was replaced by an elevated street curb. No more ramp. Link:http://bit.ly/1s5J3UK
