TITLE: I had left my home early in the morning
From young age I was keenly interested in the history of my family. Living with my father, I heard stories about the place of my birth, relatives and names. They seemed to me a source of answers to questions about family life. After all, what was "before" determines what I have now. I felt that, I had to find out everything, but in this case I must see.
In search of clues and answers in my 25th birthday, I went to Tbilisi - in the house in which I was born. Then my adventure of the past began. Only being there I could feel the world that existed before me. The charm of something very familiar and native accompanied me after every walk around the city.
The absence of external borders between people - is what I encountered in my travels through Georgia. The revelation that the "family" can be outside the family, behind the every house's door.
Childhood reminiscence by smells is quite easy. Feeling them, in us as flashes, images and memories which just little depend on ourselves.
