We look very much forward to working with Tamari and have so many questions\u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What was your first job?<\/strong><\/p>\n My first job was as a lawyer at the Georgian Blind Union. This was one of the most fulfilling jobs I have had in my life. The people I worked with there inspired me in many ways.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Breakfast or dinner?<\/strong><\/p>\n A nutritious breakfast – the best way to ensure an energetic start to the day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What do you cook when you spontaneously have friends over for dinner?<\/strong><\/p>\n Khachapuri, a traditional Georgian salad with walnuts, and fine Georgian wine are always a good idea for spontaneous gatherings.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mountains or Seaside?<\/strong><\/p>\n Seaside.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you could meet someone famous, dead or alive, who would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n King (and not Queen) Tamar of Georgia from the 12th<\/sup> century. She was the first female monarch to rule the country, and the period of her reign is known as the Golden Age.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which was your favorite place to live so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n Batumi, Georgia – I wish to spend my later years there, enjoying morning coffee on the glorious boulevard and golden sunsets on the beach.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Digital or analogue?<\/strong><\/p>\n Weirdly, this question always makes me think of photography, and my answer is always analogue. Seeing newly developed scans from a roll of film feels a bit like unwrapping a Kinder Surprise.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Favorite time of day?<\/strong><\/p>\n Before bedtime, planning the agenda for the next day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Window or aisle seat?<\/strong><\/p>\n Window seats – more privacy and an opportunity to explore.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Country you wish to visit?<\/strong><\/p>\n I would love to visit the English countryside: beautiful, quiet villages with characteristic architecture and quaint charm.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What song will always get you on the dancefloor?<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cShow Me Love\u201d by Robin S. – a timeless 90s track that simply does not need a remake.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Good advice you\u2019ve received?<\/strong><\/p>\n Confidence comes from preparation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Biggest pet peeve?<\/strong><\/p>\n Unannounced video calls.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Most played on your music playlist right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cSoulFood Society\u201d, the album by MokuMoku, an alternative hip-hop band from Tbilisi, Georgia.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Favorite (public) holiday?<\/strong><\/p>\n Easter, celebrated with my big family in my hometown.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Last new thing you learned?<\/strong><\/p>\n Direct communication is efficient rather than rude.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which movie can you watch over and over?<\/strong><\/p>\n There are many, but Billy Wilder\u2019s \u201cThe Apartment\u201d always makes my New Year\u2019s eves magical.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Three words to describe Berlin?<\/strong><\/p>\n Historic, diverse, unique.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Three words to describe your hometown Sachkhere?<\/strong><\/p>\n My sweet grannies.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Night owl or early bird?<\/strong><\/p>\n Both – depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Favorite pizza topping?<\/strong><\/p>\n Rucola.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tamari Tsertsvadze is a Georgian-qualified attorney and joins us from the new class of the International Dispute Resolution LL.M at Berlin Humboldt University.
