It’s an interesting observation. In general Georgians are pretty tolerant despite being hot natured. It was probably the only republic in the USSR that didn’t have much or any of anti semitism, which was rampant everywhere else
They travel to many, many, MANY places, all over the world. They live in San Francisco...work, work, work, then travel. My son attended university in Italy, then in Paris. Since then he (then they) have continued to travel.

Georgia...yes, the people are known to be friendly and my son and DIL love to travel to places that are especially beautiful - beautiful nature. They really enjoy eastern European countries. My DIL is 1/2 Filipino, so they sometimes go to visit her mother's family in the Philippines.

They have traveled all over Europe, but don't seem to want to spend more time there, in general. They do visit friends, though. They have many friends who are from the UK and from Ireland, but didn't seem too fond of visiting the UK. My son and I went to Ireland together; I fell in love with it - I could live there. He liked it. They also enjoy Mexico and some places in Mexico. And south America. They just really love to travel!

My grandparents, who were Jews, were from Belarus and Ukraine, but escaped from the oppression of the era (app. 1910) and immigrated to the U.S. (NYC). Terrible antisemitism, yes. Thank God they were long gone by the time Hitler invaded.

How did your daughter and SIL like Georgia?
