In Batumi, Georgia, this afternoon taking photographs at a festival on the Black Sea.

'Het ideale leesvoer om op vakantie te verslinden gaat over de lokale keuken en is de opmaat voor zowel lunch als diner.' Er komen nog steeds definities bij, van het perfecte vakantieboek, en @cvandijk.bsky.social tipt de culinaire reisboeken van @edentravels.bsky.social‬: athenaeumscheltema.n...

I'm not sure my stomach will take the reading of this:

This, on the other hand, I could get behind.

I really don't want to know. Plus, creepy.

Finally, a new perspective on the Aral Sea - fascinating report from Nick here.

Usually only for paid subs, I’ve opened my latest Journeys Beyond Borders arts diary up to all. It’s the most popular feature of the ‘stack and it comes out twice a month on a Monday. Please share if of interest! carolineeden.substack.com/p/field-note...

I worked for @waterstones.bsky.social many years ago and this has *really* made my day. Thank you @waterstoneslhx.bsky.social

Green Mountains: Walking the Caucasus with Recipes is Caroline Eden's final instalment of the ‘colour trilogy’, following on from her multi-award winning books, Black Sea and Red Sands. Signed copies of Green Mountains are available in Store and Online ✍️ www.stanfords.co.uk/green-mounta...

Still annoyed with myself for not buying this in Bucharest.

First recipe made @edentravels.bsky.social 😋 If, like me, you love Travel Writing and you love food, this book is for you too!! Caroline’s books are amazing, and, even better, you can cook your way through. Armenian Dawn Cocktails next … 🍹 Get your copy @stanfordstravel.bsky.social 💚📗📖

Book talks and events are sometimes a lot in terms of travel, time and energy but every single one is worth it. It is an honour to have the chance to meet readers in person and to be hosted by bookshops and festivals. And with feedback like this, well... 💚 Thank you.

Thrilled to see this:

Indie bookshops are the best. Wonderful night in a chapel by the sea, in Dunbar (Scotland), talking about Cold Kitchen and Green Mountains with Rebecca from Night Owl Bookshop.

Do you know about my weekly Substack, Journeys Beyond Borders? There are two versions of this newsletter: "lite" is free and "connoisseur" is paid for. If you like my books, you might like this 'stack too - similar but different. Find out more here: carolineeden.substack.com/about

Amsterdam! Thank you bookseller Casper and Scheltema bookshop.

Paperback publication day - thank you to all booksellers everywhere, and special thanks to my publisher @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social !

Re-upping this - please do join us!

'mouthfeel', the very word makes me want to throw up.

I'm telling you, the more you write and the more you publish, the more you realise that all you can do is produce the best work possible. There are a million and one things to get irritated by in this ridiculous industry but ultimately, fuck it. Just write and keep on writing.

I think I may need this book.

This is surely one of the best parts about writing a book. It sometimes allows you to help out in unexpected ways. Congratulations to the winners and I'll be wrapping and posting the books this week!

Returning to @stanfordstravel.bsky.social Covent Garden on Mon 2 June to talk about the South Caucasus, food, wine and walking. Join us! Tickets £7 or with book £28. Some places still available: www.stanfords.co.uk/event-green-...

Please share this far and wide. Thank you.

This time last night we were in full swing for the Green Mountains supper club at Topping & Co Booksellers in Edinburgh, the first one held in the store. It was quite magical!

You can catch up on BBC Sounds, if keen : ) www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Thanks to everyone who listened in today!

On Easter Sunday I will be LIVE on my *favourite* radio show talking with the one and only Cerys Matthews about walking in the Caucasus and playing some of my favourite songs from Armenia and Georgia. BBC R6 at 11am-ish. Tune in! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

I've been waiting years for Shaun's new book, 'The Illegals: Russia's Most Audacious Spies and the Plot to Infiltrate the West', and there's an excerpt in The Guardian today:

My newsletter this week is free to read, pass it on!

Out today! Why nothing beats a good walk in the Caucasus followed by a feast... www.theguardian.com/travel/2025/...

There is a recipe for Gurian khachapuri, and my favourite stuffed bread of all, lobiani 💚 And cheers Neil!

Green Mountains book events! Mark your diaries : )

The final book in my colour trilogy has been printed in Estonia. A small thing perhaps but this pleases me. The previous book in the series, Red Sands, could not be printed in China as I spoke out about the persecution of the Uyghurs...

On the stereo this morning - Polish wedding folk music. It is Friday...! I really love this album.

I cannot stress how good this book is. If you're in London on 20 March do go and hear Philip speak about it.

Really looking forward to this event, in Letchworth (Hertfordshire) on Wednesday 2 April - tickets for sale now. www.davids-bookshops.co.uk/products/eve... Please share to anyone who is local! With thanks.

Crikey, sold out both sittings!
