Właśnie dlatego musisz odpocząć. A w razie deszczu posiedzisz w Mestii i popiszesz.
That's exactly why you need a break. And if it rains, you can sit in Mestia and do some writing.

Nie mam nawet pojęcia, skąd się lata do tego Kutaisi. I za co miałbym kupić bilet?
I haven't got a clue where you even fly to Kutaisi from. And where would I get the money for a ticket?

Nie musisz wiedzieć, bilet już masz. Kupiłam ci go na urodziny, z miejscem przy oknie.
You don't need to know, you've already got a ticket. I bought it for your birthday, with a window seat.
