How would I buy something in Georgia and have it shipped to the USA?

Hello, I hope someone here could solve this maybe impossible problemšŸ˜….

I visited Tbilisi a few years ago and loved my time there. While walking around I saw something that I really wanted to buy, but stupidly walked away, thinking that I would see it again and buy it later. Luckily, I found it online! It was this wooden puzzle of Georgia. But unluckily, Veli only seems to ship to Tbilisi, and I can't seem to find the same product sold anywhere else.

Is there some way to buy the product and have it shipped to the USA? Maybe a shipping company that allows me to deliver a package straight to them, and then shipped overseas?

[update] we are adopting the dog that wouldn't stop following us

I honestly can't believe I'm writing this.

The dog started following us I think it was in the Giorgi Leonidze Park at around 7pm. It literally wouldn't leave us alone for almost 2h.

We saw something weird on his back/legs and decided that if she would follow us to a vet, we would ask them to check her out. She's done exactly that and the vet told us she's totally fine but nobody would take care of her, so she would have to go back to the streets.

Both my girlfriend and I were absolutely devastated. The doggie was lying down close to us the whole time at the vet as well. We called shelters, we looked for whichever solutions online, organizations. Nothing.

It was already too late to use the rational side of my brain when I realised I was googling how to take the dog back with us. Long story short, we found another vet to get some blood tests done and we found a dog hotel that will do the relocation process (microchip, passport, vaccines...) and take care of the doggie until we can fly with her.

If you are a local, have a good heart, and would like to adopt the doggie temporarily for a few months until the relocation stuff is done, let me know. I'm happy to cover all the costs. I would rather the doggie have a real home for these months than for it to sit in a hotel for all this time. I visited the pet hotel today, it's a sad place.

It's 2am and I did not see this day ending like this at all. Have a good night everyone āœŒļøšŸ•Šļø

Is it fireworks I keep hearing at night?

I've been here in Tbilisi since the 10th, and several nights I've been hearing what sounds like either fireworks or gunshots to my ears. From where I'm staying I don't see the flash of fireworks, but I'm wanting to confirm what I keep hearing.

Just heard a series a couple minutes ago.

Road trip around Georgia

Hello Redditors,

I'm a solo traveler planning to visit your beautiful country sometime in June. I intend to drive from Tbilisi to Batumi and would love to get a local's input on worthwhile stops along the way.

I don't mind staying at multiple places before finally reaching Batumi. I apologize in advance if this question has been asked multiple times.

Thank you all in advance.

The African community

Hello everyone!!

I moved to Tbilisi a few months ago, and so far, I'm really loving the country and my university. However, I'm really struggling when it comes to making friends. I'm a very outgoing person, and I'm always approaching people; however, I haven't had too much success. A couple of people advised me to find an African community and start from there. So I was wondering if any of the African bros here would maybe introduce me to the African community in Tbilisi.Ā

Doggie won't stop following us

What really is different in the TSMU USMD Program?

I am interested to know from a first hand persepctive what is special about this program and why it is marginally more expensive that normal georgian programs. If any graduates do read this post, did you think it was worth it? Why/Why not? And is doing clerkships within the US actually a service provided consistently by this program?
Thank you for reading.

Motorola phones in Tbilisi

Does anyone know a shop specializing in Motorola phones, or at least has many of them? I want to see some of these phones offline, as I am screen-sensitive and want to be sure the phone won't cause me eyestrain.

Places to swim?

Late July me and friends are coming over to the city of Tbilisi and we are very excited! Does anybody here know if there are swimming facilities, like can you even swim in the Tbilisi reservoir. I also saw on google maps that there is a Tbilisi Sea club, is that something?

Update on Georgia and Exchange Rate?

Hi all. Today, I saw some reallly strange movement on OTC exchange rate for USD to GEL shot up. There's a bigger gap from standard bank rate at the time of this post a lot more than the usual. My only speculation is that the protest intensified and perhaps spooked some people?

Any insight from people on the ground would be appreciated.

What do I say in the small buses when i want the driver to stop?

Hi! Iā€™m sure this is silly šŸ˜­ but what exactly do people say when they want the bus drivers to stop at the next stop (gacherebazeā€¦?)

Iā€™m always so shy to say what I think the phrase is (+ scared to say the wrong thing) and everyone always looks at me strangely when I say it (thatā€™s not particularly strange as Iā€™m black and always getting weird stares).

Iā€™d appreciate telling me exactly how itā€™s pronounced. Thank you!
