Hitching in Georgia is easy! Short waits and very friendly people. Road conditions are quite bad so it can take some time.
Spots are very easy to find, just head in the right direction and you will find a suitable place to stand. Older people rarely speak English. And a few phrases in Russian can be handy (or even better in Georgian!).

Staying in the homes of local people and enjoying their hospitality is possible practically everywhere except for Tbilisi.
Pitching a tent is a normal thing for the local people, forbidden only in city centers and near ruins. It is best to camp away from heavily populated places to avoid trouble with hooligans.
