Former Penna high school classmate from sixty years ago who apparently lived an artsy/hippie/vagabond lifestyle since then ended up living in Triblisi and periodically sends out emails describing the - to him- idyllic lifestyle there - cafes, orchestras, ballet, commune style get-togethers - the fads may be contributed to by any number of US ex-pats living there now.....
