check nomadlist.com. nomad style would be travel to all the ones you fancy and spend a few weeks there, then you'll know. one of the most favourite nomad places worldwide is thailand and bali. if you factor in costs work from home/paradise very likely gives a lot higher payoff than locating at tech hubs in terms of price/value. e.g. Chiang mai, Thailand frequently ranks #1 on nomadlist. living cost there is shown at 1000$/month (versus 4400$ in London or 6000$ in SF, 3600$ in Brisbane).

$1000/month will make you live like king in Tbilisi and Georgian cuisine is unmatched worldwide. Also super cheap craft beer and wine.
I'd move to Georgia with absolutely no hesitation!

The life is surprisingly "slow", people are more relaxed (apart from the recent protests related to the incident we all are worried about), friendly faces, and like you said, the cuisine caught me off guard and turned out to be absolutely amazing!

Are many Russians moving there because of the sanctions?
~25,000 Russians moved there right after the incident. So maybe many will return or move farther.
How is the attitude from locals towards them? Russia did invade Georgia not that long ago (2008), so I'm guessing there must be some tensions.
There is some tensions but so far it just discussion, you know - nothing physical.
