An excerpt:
5. What made you fall in love with Tbilisi?
There’s a beautiful sadness about the city’s faded grandeur – around every corner there’s a strange and startling statue of an angel, a balcony in the shape of a mermaid, an entry hall with frescoes of cherubs, stone griffins – it’s like living in a boundary world between reality and myth. It’s easily as beautiful as Paris or Budapest, but its relative dearth of tourists gives visitors the option to discover the city for themselves, rather than relying upon preconceived guidebook notions of what Tbilisi should be like.
