Huge Influx Into Georgia
You might want to put off that move to Tbilisi for a while. Rents in the country of Georgia started going up as soon as Russia invaded Ukraine and those with the means to leave Russia did so in droves.

For a reminder on how an announcement is not the same as implementation when it comes to digital nomad visas, compare the clickbait news stories from the major media that have been out there about living in Bali to this detailed timeline on what has really gone in motion (not much) for the Indonesian island. For now, don’t hold your meditative breath.

The verdict is that it’s not as powerful as the big one at home, but good enough (and convenient enough) to use on relatively short trips instead of a manual one.
