My husband and I didn’t have children for 9 years. We tried everything whatever was possible in Georgia. In fact, we spent all the money we had on doctors, but with no result. Then we were advised to go to Germany for examination. It was a miracle - I became pregnant as soon as we arrived and soon we had Gio. We registered as refugees and lived in Germany for almost 4 years. My husband was working, I was taking care of the house. After four years of our life there we decided to come back. With IOM’s assistance we renovated our house, but we can’t move in yet. We need time to be able to buy furniture. This is most important at this stage. I am an artist by profession, I studied design, but I have never worked as a designer. I got married soon after I left university and I couldn’t pursue my career. Now I have a 3-year-old child, I am a housewife, but I want to start working.
