Be a better version of yourself

"And then, unexpectedly, an odd plant of love blossomed in my soul; can guess which one?
Poppy! No, it wilts too quickly! Angelonia! No,Too delicate. Dahlia! no, It’s too showy. A rose? No, too conventional...So, what is it?
And suddenly, an odd plant blossomed in my soul, the Cactus of Love, thorny and spiky, yet every prick was incredibly sweet and delightful. And even now, as I look at you, it pricks me, and if you only knew how much I love you..."
Guram Dochanashvili, “The First Garment”

Guram Dochanasvili via its protagonist “Alessandro”, reflects on the paradoxical nature of love, comparing it to various plants, and finally to a cactus, a symbol of love that can be both painful (like the thorns) and sweet (like the sensation that follows). The passage highlights the complexity and depth of emotions associated with love, capturing the idea that even its hardships can be deeply cherished.

The idea of Altihut 3014 was born from a profound love for nature and a deep sense of responsibility toward our planet. It embodies a commitment to harmonize the thrill of adventure and the joy of living in the moment with a conscious awareness of the traces we leave behind. Acknowledging that our journeys often risk overlooking what truly matters, and may even cause unintended harm. Altihut strives to minimize this impact. Through every effort, it aims to make each day a little brighter and more meaningful for those we may never meet, but who are nonetheless part of our shared path toward a more sustainable and compassionate world.
To speak not just with words, but through actions, the Altihut team built a bridge over the Chkheri River in 2016, now known as “Alessandor’s Bridge.”
Its name is a tribute, inspired by Guram Dochanashvili’s timeless story The First Garment, and it stands as a symbol of connection, humility, and enduring purpose, values that lie at the very heart of the Altihut vision.
