Giorgi’s Journey: From Basketball Courts to Lecture Halls at KTU!

Living multiple lives in Lithuania: meet Mikhail, student, writer, and opera singer from Sakartvelo
“The first thing I remember about Lithuania is landing in Vilnius, and, while driving on a van to Kaunas, watching a beautiful sunset from the window. The sky was bright yellow despite the setting sun, the trees looked as green as I remember them from my childhood, and the farming ground seemed to be brown-reddish because of the sunlight angle. I watched, and at the moment, I understood the Lithuanian flag was painted by nature itself,” says Mikhail Edisherashvili from Sakartvelo. That moment of arrival marked the beginning of something more profound than just moving to a new country. Lithuania […]
