What do you know about Georgia?
Wine, mountains, khinkali, khachapuri, kind people, and the sea... But did you know that guests here can become closer than family? That a child's name is chosen to reflect their destiny? That moving to Georgia offers not only a fabulous view of Kakheti but also a personal challenge?
Lilia Gogoladze married a Georgian, learned the language, became the mother of three sons, and found her calling in Tbilisi. In her book, "Georgia from Within," she shares personal experiences, humorous situations, cultural discoveries, and family stories—with irony, light, and love.
In this book, you'll learn:
• Why guests in Georgia are called "messengers of God."
• How grandparents and grandchildren live under one roof—and what "big family" means in Georgian.
• What gestures and phrases will help you become one of Georgia's natives.
• What is Supra, who is a tamada, and why a feast isn't a feast without one.
• Why Georgians believe wine was born in their country—and how this is connected to qvevri clay vessels.
• How to eat khinkali properly without losing face.
After reading this book, you won't just get to know Georgia—you'll want to go there right away!
