Like the majority of Georgians, I moved to the capital Tbilisi after high school to continue my studies. Since then, whenever I have the time, I visit my hometown on the weekends or, lately, test remote work possibilities. My professional interests also involve the development of rural and mountainous areas. I serve as a consultant for international and local organizations on research, investments in agriculture, tourism, community development, and other village-related topics. If you are interested in rural life and like to discuss a variety of topics, you are welcome to my village home.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Although not a typical vacation spot, Ontopo's quaint little village makes for a great place to hunker down for a few weeks. On the weekend I visit the village for the holidays. Lately, despite the lack of infrastructure, testing possibilities for remote work. In both cases, I will gladly welcome you or give you the key to my rustic home in the village so that we can keep it alive and turn the place into a co-working environment in nature for telecommuters. With this spirit, visit us and contribute to improving the place by keeping the house clean, fixing broken items, painting the walls, bringing in any supplies we're low on, and spreading the word about our location.
