Dizi, Svaneti, Georgia

Back to the start of this 25th Svaneti visit - pictures out of order, but never mind.

From the top: 6-year-old Iviko, growing up without his dad, who died when he was a few months old, managing the axe all by himself while I watched with trepidation. We also cut some logs together using a 2-person saw.

Clothes wire.

Someone looking beautiful at the window.

Paper lanterns, similar in appearance to the Cape gooseberries of my southern African childhood but apparently not containing the same fruit at all.
