2017 - Georgia Hike (Mestia to Ushguli)

This was by far one of the best trips I've ever had! Seven of us escaped the heat in Dubai towards the end of June 2017 to do this promising 4-day hike between the town of Mestia and Ushguli. Ushguli is one of the highest continuously inhabited settlements in Europe. If you haven't visited the country of Georgia and like to hike, I fully recommend this trip as it offered beautiful landscapes, glaciers and historic villages; this place was timeless! At the end of each day we were able to find accommodations within the villages with a chance to eat the local foods which was quite welcoming after a long days hike. This hike is very popular and we had the chance to meet many people from various countries also visiting Georgia to do this particular hike. We were like one big family after a while as you started to see the same faces after a while. I have to take my hat off to my wife as she was over 3 months pregnant during this hike. We had already planned the trip and booked our flights when we then found out she was pregnant. She was a little slower than usual, but she finished the hike like a champ.
