Good job!
๐ก This picture was indeed taken in ๐ฌ๐ทGreece. The look of the surroundings is not very specific but there is some writing in the Greek script (=writing system, alphabet). ๐ฒ๐ฝMexico is a Spanish-speaking country and uses Latin, ๐ง๐ฌBulgaria has Cyrillic (=Russian alphabet) and ๐ฎ๐ฑIsrael has their own Hebrew (=the language of Israel) script which looks more boxy (=shaped like a box) and doesnโt resemble (=be similar to) the Latin script at all.

#82 Travelogue Georgia: Ukraine is in Georgia
โถ๏ธ Everyone talks about Ukraine, so letโs do that as well! Many people support Ukraine but what you can see in ๐ฌ๐ชGeorgia is really on another level. How come?
A troubled history
Despite being the home country of Stalin, Georgians see themselves as victims of Russian aggression. Thatโs mainly because Russia is controlling the two breakaway republics inside the country โ Abkhasia and Southern Ossetia โ and Georgians see how Russia is trying to do the same in Ukraine.
Wannabe Western
Georgia is somehow in Asia but it feels like Europe and Georgians are eager to join the EU. They are also heavily pro-American. Being against Russia is one way of expressing this. And as in Europe itโs also fashionable to show support for Ukraine even when you donโt care about it deeply.
Funny situation: A random young guy in Tbilisi comes up to us to ask where we are from. So we ask him back and the answer is โฆ? โ โIโm from f***ing Russia.โ ๐ณ

Iโm with Ukraine. Putin wants to build the Soviet Union 2.0 and we should stop him.
