About Me
I was born in Tbilisi, Georgia, but I grew up in Telavi, small town in eastern part of Georgia. From my childhood I always loved learning, reading literature and history especially, and singing songs. After finishing the secondary school in my native village Napareuli (Telavi, Kakheti region, eastern Georgia) I enrolled at Tbilisi State University at the Faculty of Humanities, where I obtained master's degree in history. Currently, I am living in Warsaw, I am scholarship holder of the Government of the Republic of Poland. Conducting my MA thesis at The University of Warsaw. I am interested in traveling, when I have the possibility, I always use it.
