My journey begins with 3 days exploring the stunning landscapes and culture of Georgia, wandering through ancient monasteries, vibrant Tbilisi streets, and dramatic Caucasus scenery. On July 11th, the expedition shifts into high gear as I head to Elbrus Ethel — the gateway to Europe’s highest peak.

From the alpine meadows of the Baksan Valley, the twin-summited giant of Mount Elbrus dominates the horizon. Crisp mountain air, glacial trails, and sweeping views of the Greater Caucasus make every step an unforgettable experience.
