How is Georgia for non-Russian nor Georgian speaker?

both countries are really cheap if your from a developed country and off the beaten path for westerners that locals are friendly, even if most don't know much english

nagorno-karabakh is a meme, you can get a taxi and pay a fee to transit there, but unless you want to meet a specific local or site there's nothing there that's different from the rest of the country, go if your the kind of person who brags about how many stamps are in your passport

georgia has a more developed tourist industry and is normally considered nicer by people without a connection to ether country, there's a lot more tourists because of soviet development and they get along with their neighbors better

good thing about armenia is because so much of their tourism is based on the diaspora in america, english is a bit more common, even though young people in both countries know a bit

with their generous no visa policy and cheap cost of living I could see Georgia becoming the next place young travelers go to to bum around for a few months

Nigger, it's like you haven't even been to Shushi.

>Is going to Nagorno-Karabakh worth it?
If you go to Shushi, yes.

you can get by without the language in both. a lot of people do speak english

armenia isnt as good as georgia, but worth a look if you're in the neighborhood. mashrutkas from tbilisi take 6 hours to reach yerevan though, fuckin long ass trip

I survived only speaking english.

During my time there I met a lot of people combining georgia and armenia and almost all of them agreed that georgia was better. I guess it's because georgia has more to offer. Georgia has a richer landscape/nature "portfolio" and its historical sites are not much shorter than those in Armenia. Apart from that Tbilisi is supposed to be a better city than Yerevan.

On that note I think it's important to visit NK. If I had only visited armenia I would've ended bored of monasteries. NK gave it a different tone. NK has got mosques, some dark tourism (Shushi and specially Agdam) and if you are into geopolitics you'll just enjoy a lot. The whole place feels like a cul-de-sac sort of frontier territory. I would definitely spend like two days there.

Just go to Glendale, CA

It's basically the same thing but nicer
