Tbilisi: Georgian Language & Culture

Embark on a travel writing adventure in Georgia with SRAS. We will travel extensively over four weeks, noting the pillars of Georgian identity – language, food and wine, music, and dance – and how they are shaped by geography. We will discuss the country's growing tourism sector and sustainability. If you are linguistically and culturally curious, enjoy writing, and love sharing your experiences with others, this course is for you! Food and wine are perhaps the most recognized expressions of Georgian identity and diversity. Extremely healthy (think superfoods), with amazing vegetarian and vegan dishes, Georgian food evokes emotion among people lucky enough to try it. The wine industry has ancient roots—a fascinating, unique history—and is making its way steadily into world markets.
