In 2016 our whole family went to Germany; our youngest child was born there. My husband is a world boxing champion, but he was unemployed, which is why we left. We thought that as he was an active sportsman, Germany would offer better conditions and opportunities. But we were wrong. We came back after exactly 2 years.
We are both unemployed here too, and, in fact, our father-in-law supports us, who is a choreographer and trains children. I would happily work by my second profession, I am a nurse, or I would start a business, but I cannot see myself in this city, in Georgia yes but Poti is a forgotten city.
