Georgia !

Thank you all -

Gia, Malkhaz, Uano, Gogo, Tengis, Misha, Giorgi, Giorgi, Shota, Salome, Tamuna, Yoan, Avto, Avto, Kakha, mamao Jakob, Vacho, Anna, Gia's parents and all those whose name I haven't caught

- for your hospitality, generosity, craziness, for taking over my life for one week, giving me an experience of a life time and being new friends to me. I've survived your mad driving, your endless toasting speeches, your peculiar alphabet, your feasting until morning hours ... and have come out a new man.
