Finally I hold in my hands a special issue of National Geographic (Georgia) Magazine with our feature story In the Giant’s Palms about unique canyons of Western Georgia. What is it like to be a pioneer, are there any more white spots on Earth? All this with the ingenious photos by Viktor Lyagushkin.
The issue is available in Russian and English.
Thanks to Irakli Julakidze, Amiran Jamrishvili, Valery Barbaqadze, Gigo Oniani and Club Tetnuldi for their help in creating photos and materials.
On April 29, Vitya Lyagushkin and I had the honor to attend the presentation of the May (2017) issue of National Geographic (Georgia) Magazine, as well as the premiere screening of the film The Genius about Albert Einstein, to which the issue of the magazine is also dedicated. To our regret, we understood little from the movie, since it was in Georgian, but appreciated the excellent work of the magazine team and the high level of organization of the event.
The presentation had been held in the inner courtyard of the National Museum of Georgia. The wine was magnificent, the buffet was wonderful, the atmosphere was friendly.
Dear new National Geographic (Georgia) Editor-in-Chief Natia Khuluzauri, thank you for inviting us, it was a big pleasure to be there!
A drop of Georgian mood by me and Viktor Lyagushkin in the Canadian Magazine DIVER (v 41, #8).
With its old traditions of hospitality, Georgia is one of my favourite countries in the world. Wish you, my reader, to visit in Georgia some day and dive one of its unique diving locations.
Summer 2015 we spent in Georgia, exploring canyons and taking pictures. The project was featured in one of the most popular Georgian TV programs – Post Scriptum summarising events of the country.
Thank you, Amiran Jamrishvili, Valeri Barbaqadze, Irakli Julakidze for your help, and sharing your knowledge and love to Georgia.
