Lately, many families that had chosen the same Ukrainian surrogacy center as us have decided to start the process in the Georgia branch and will be traveling there during the holiday season.
Georgia is an Orthodox Christian nation that follows the ancient Julian calendar. Instead of celebrating Christmas on December 25th, like other countries following the Gregorian calendar, Georgia celebrates it exactly thirteen days later.
The date remains the same every year: always on January 7th; it will only change to January 8th in the year 2101.
Festivities in Georgia begin in early December when the Christmas lights and tree are lit, and they only conclude at the end of January with the Orthodox Epiphany.
The most significant date in the Georgian festive calendar is definitely December 31st, surpassing even Orthodox Christmas in terms of celebration (although not in terms of religious importance).
The country's deep religious roots blend with legendary family traditions, culinary delights, and celebrations.
Streets are full of lights, Christmas markets, and fireworks, creating a festive atmosphere that we hope families choosing Tbilisi as their destination for surrogacy can enjoy.
