'''Georgia''' is a country in [[Western Asia]], that borders [[Turkey]], [[Armenia]], [[Azerbaijan]] and [[Russia]]. A part of Georgia in the North-West is the de-facto independent though scarcely recognized state called [[Abkhazia]].
Hitching in Georgia is most of the time easy! Short waits and very friendly people. Road conditions in some places are quite bad so it can take some time but in most of cases there are renovated roads. Spots are very easy to find, just head in the right direction and you will find a suitable place to stand. Sometimes luck isn't on your side though and you have to wait for a while. And the only cars who will stop for you are Marshrutka's who are expecting payment. But stay patient! Eventually someone will stop for you.Older people rarely speak English, they speak Russian but youngsters are speaking English (in most of cases in big cities; in villages youngsters are speaking only Georgian). And a few phrases in Russian can be handy (or even better in Georgian!).
