Matsi couldn't imagine losing her home, which happened twice in her life. She moved from Tskhinvali to Akhalgori, when the situation escalated for the first time. After the war in August 2008, she had to move to Tbilisi. When Tserovani settlement was built, she gained a new home: on the first block, 6th Street, 24th flat.

“Ikorta” is also located near her flat, several streets away. It’s like a second home for Matsi. This social enterprise was founded in 2012, with the financial help of “Beteli” Organisation. “Ikorta” has been self-sustained after that.

“At first, I got involved in the project, and I learned about working on enamel. After this course one of the students would be left in the handicraft shop, and they chose me. I’m counting on a third year of working here,” - says Matsi Lvoveli.
