- Music
Meet 17 year old Khatia, who lives 700 metres above sea level in the singing village of Merisi in Ajara, West Georgia.
Despite being 2 hours from the nearest city, Khatia is not cut off - She has friends all over the world who have come to learn songs from her family - from Melbourne Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Austria, Ireland, UK and beyond.
Hear how she was finally convinced to join in her family’s songs around the supra table.
Enjoy the sounds of Merisi, like the babbling waterfalling and the singing birds recorded live on our trip there in April.
