Georgia among best places for remote working in 2021

A global travel website Big 7 Travel published a list of the best cities to work from remotely in 2021.

Georgia’s capital Tbilisi ranked 2nd among 50 cities on the list.

“In light of the pandemic, Georgia has introduced a remote worker visa to enable relocation under the current circumstances,” Big 7 Travel noted.

“Over the past several years, Tbilisi has been making big moves in the digital nomad world. Sat in the Caucasus region, the quirky capital has a lot to offer in the way of culture; from its diverse food scene to its long and complicated history, there’s something for everyone. It also serves as a great base for exploring the rest of Georgia. From the frosty Caucasus mountains up north to the pebbled shores of Batumi’s Black Sea coast; the country is as visually appealing as it is affordable,” Big 7 Travel added.
