IWA Christmas Charity Fair Tbilisi 2018

Annual Winter Fair (Christmas charity fair) was held at Tbilisi's Radisson Blue Hotel on December 1, 2018

For many expats in Georgia, it has been already a tradition to visit this fair year. For me, this was already some sixth or seventh fair (as a visitor), maybe I should start selling hot wine in the next years (who knows)

As usual, I took my DSLR camera, backpack and went shopping (this year was special, as it was the first fair for our little daughter).

Fair is a great place to buy great things and let's believe to help charity, as all earnings made during this fair is believed to be donated to charity.  It should, after all. Winter fair was organized by International Women's Association Georgia (IWAG)

Seems from Greece stand. If you will look closely you will notice a little hand waving to the camera (to visitors actually) in the right bottom corner. That's the first time our little princess waived to someone.

For years, our favorite stand has been the embassy of the United States of America, but this year the UK won our hearts (because of the children books). The bottle bak by the UK this year was pretty lame, but that's fine. See you at 2019 fair.
