No probs:) As an American the 1 year visa free thing is great. We're the only nationality that enjoys it, for now. Who knows how long it will last. They overturned that privilege a few years ago, then put right back a month or two later, lol...

Ironically, even EU passports can only stay the traditional 90/180 days...

Personally, it's got it pluses and minuses. Lots of hype, but the overtourism is beginning to come here as well. I stay in the off season, so plenty of decent and cheap places, but lots of endless construction which makes the place quite noisy. There are trade offs for sure. I lived in Tbilisi for 4 years mainly because of the Visa policy, the food, and it WAS cheap. I left because it got too expensive after the Russian invasion of Ukraine... If if got like that here, I would leave as well...
