Tornike Zurabashvili
Helsinki'09 Session will gather over three hundred
young Europeans from over thirty countries. Among
them - few Georgians: delegates, teachers and - for
the first time - journo. So the progress is obvious: last
summer, in Liverpool, delegate from Georgia attended
International session (IS) of EYP for the first time.
Now, in Helsinki, we have our own official and 5 dele-
gates! But our ambitions go far ahead - we wanna
bring IS to our country (see page 2page 2page 2page 2).
What does it mean to represent Georgia at IS? When
your name is being announced at the stage and you
hear congratulations from all the sides. 2nd national ses-
sion’s participants remember emotions of Tamta Ga-
bunia at that moment. Helsinki’09 delegate Giorgi Sam-
kharadze shares his fairy tale especially for you
(page 2page 2page 2page 2).
Apply now and you still have a
chance to attend MM session of
EYP-Georgia.
Mtskheta-Mtianeti will host a ses-
sion for the first time. Thanks to
local officials, we can promise par-
ticipants another peculiar EYP
spirit event. Unfortunately, not
many spots are free for
‘citizens’ of other regions.
Mtskheta and Tserovani pu-
pils will fill more than half
places. But keep in mind
other interesting sessions you
can be part of.

2. become true if only he
wanted it truly and honestly.
As the boy was very confi-
dent in his decisions, after
some time and hard work he
managed to achieve them
all.
It may look boring as a fairy
tale, but it's unbelievably real
story that I experienced dur-
ing my last few years. The
name of the Golden Fish
consists of 3 magical letters
(EYP) which made my
wishes come true and gave
much more than I asked for.
If you have ever participated
in any kind of EYP session
or event, it's not going to be
hard to understand me, I
Once
upon a time in
Europe, a boy who
had just become a
student and was
exploring the world
around him for new
challenges found a
Golden Fish. It was
not easy to catch it. The fish told boy to
say 3 wishes he had for his youth life.
At that time there were three things the
boy wanted to have: 1. Educational
Growth (Professional Development) 2.
Fun with his peers (real unforgettable
time) & 3.Contribution to his country
(presenting it on international level).
The fish told the boy that wishes would
hope. And if you haven't tried it
yet, then you're missing an op-
portunity that doesn't least for
long.
For th os e , wh o wa nt
to cooperate with golden fish ;)
I'll quote my speech, I said
when I was selected as a dele-
gate for Helsinki IS on a Geor-
gian NSC 2009: "I really want to
thank the National Committee
for choosing me (I felt that
somebody apprised my work, I
saw the result); and I want to
tell you - the delegates, that
your hard work will be re-
spected for sure, so it's my
friendly advice to be active and
work very hard”
Let’s see which cities/countries will host next 4 international sessions:
• 63rd International Session in Tromsø (Norway), Spring 2010
• 64th International Session in Frankfurt (Germany), Summer 2010
• 65th International Session in Lviv (Ukraine), Autumn 2010
• 66th International Session in Athens (Greece), Spring 2011
Governing body (GB) of EYP will begin discussing bids
for hosting 2011 summer International session on Oc-
tober 17-18. Decision can be made immediately, or
later this month. Georgia applied for the first time, and
we don’t know at the moment who are the other candi-
dates. Our chances are not so big now, but sooner or
later we will host IS of course. Probably with more ex-
perience our chances will increase. But we believe in
destiny and wait for an e-mail with news from GB.

Sandro) told us, that he was just
joking. After our horrifying ride on
the rope-way, we sat down near
the lake and announced the picnic
officially opened. Experienced
Chair of the Committee on Alcohol
Drinks - Nana Kalandarishvili did-
n’t manage to come with us, so we
tried to get along without her be-
ing a Tamada. Besides traditional
toasts, we also drank toasts to
EYP spirit and Facebook quizzes
=))) After getting a bit (or even
more) tipsy, we played some
games. We began with “Bear
Hunt”, but we lost our way (forgot
the words J) after “climbing the
mountain” so we didn’t manage
going to the bear’s cave. Then we
played “Honey, tell me, that you
love me”. Some delegates were
hurt during the game, as Nana
Maisuradze tried to eat Nini Balar-
jishvili’s ear :))) and Vakho Lom-
jaria tried to rape Giorgi Chincha-
ladze =))))) but the question is,
was it a rape or not, because ac-
cording to Giorgi’s face on the pho-
tos, he was kind of enjoying the
moments… =))) (love u guys and
I (of course) have no doubt, that
you did that just for fun =) :*:* )
After playing games and
taking 137 photos, the weather
got worse, so we decided to go
home. There were no taxis up
there, so we walked down the road with the
hope of finding a taxi on our way. It began
raining… In 5 minutes everyone was
drenched and cold. There was not a single
taxi in sight… We found a tree and stood
under it for almost 15 minutes. By that
time Tatia Dolidze’s brother arrived for help
and most of the girls (8 of them!! including
myself) jumped in the car. After getting
home safely, I messaged some of the boys
to know whether they were alive or not, but
nobody answered. I was really nervous, but
I calmed down after seeing all of them on
Facebook later that evening =)

EYP Google-group
members received
an e-mail from
Sandro one day -
he suggested going
on a picnic. We
were more than happy, because
everyone was feeling PED(post-
EYP-depression)-ish and we hadn’t
seen each other for a long time.
On the next Sunday, Sep-
tember 28, we all gathered near
the Vake-Kus Tba ropeway. The
meeting was at 12:00 (13:00
Georgian timing).
The next step was to reach
Kus Tba on a ropeway. Some of us
were afraid, but still decided to
follow the others and risk our lives.
In 2 minutes we regretted, be-
cause the man, who was working
there as a GAMCILEBELI, opened
the door on the half way to Kus
Tba and told us: “move over there,
because the part of the floor
where you are standing is dam-
aged”, then: “the rope-way cabins
were released in 1965 and have
40-year guarantee” (editor’s re-
mark – these were Sandro’s
words). The worst thing was, that
he was saying all that with very
serious face, so we believed him
and panicked until some experi-

(situated between Asia and Europe) to start the ini-

Everything started in 2007, when an initiative group of 7
students (Giorgi Tabagari, Giorgi Mircxulava, Tamar
Gonghadze, Ana Tsurtsumia, Sandro Mania, Giorgi
Chinchaladze, Lia Imerlishvili) decided to integrate youth in
Georgia in EYP family. Financial Support from British Global
opportunity fund gave possibility to send Georgian delegates
to the EYP regional sessions in Ukraine, Poland and Latvia.
EYP in Georgia was officially recognized as a full member of
the organization on the European Youth Parliament
International Session In Prague, April 2008.

Since Georgia became the full member of the EYP family, we were given the opportunity to send Georgian
delegates to International Session. The first Delegate from Georgia (Tamta Gabunia –who actually was the
only delegateJ) attended the International Session in Liverpool, July 2008. After this session more dele-
gates were sent to the EYP Inetnational Sessions In France, Sweden, Belgium and nowadays besides the 5
Georgian delegates, we have an official (Tornike Zurabishvili – Journo) representative at the Helsinki Inter-
national Session, which will take place between October 23 –November 1, 2009.
Georgian delegates and officials are
sent to the EYP regional and national
sessions as well. Two Georgian Officials
(Ana Tsurtsumia- Chair and Sandro Ju-
palakiani – Journo) will attend the 6th
National Selection Conference in Istan-
bul which will take place between No-
vember 20-November 24, 2009.
So far the EYP Georgia has or-
ganized 3 National Sessions, 2 International events (Batumi Interna-
tional forum and Gori Youth Active Forum), 3 mini Sessions involving approximately 300 students. If the
EYP Georgia is given opportunity, Georgian delegates will not have to go abroad to attend the 67th Interna-
tional Session in 2011, as the EYP Georgia has already applied to host the 67th International Summer Ses-
sion in Batumi/Tbilisi (fingers crossed smile).

My first steps in EYP world were really impressionable and unforgettable. I
was amazed and a bit shy when I had to play games and sing in public places
surrounded with strange people surprised by our behavior. Frankly speaking at
first I thought that all of these people were crazy or they are holding some
religion ritual to thank gods, but fortunately I was wrong and in the end of
the session I was aware that “chair” was not just an object to sit on and Imag-
ine by John Lennon became my favorite song. Then I suffered from PED adding
at least 50 person on Facebook.

It has been a life
changing experi-
ence for me. Very
enhancing and in-
spirative event. I
would love to go
on with these
types of activities
and I’m working
on joining Czech
EYP.

At first somehow felt a
little confused, cause
the situation, the faces
were all new and
strange for me.. but
then amazing day with
Teambuilding.. unfor-
gettable games and lit-
tle by little felt that I
was getting inside what's
called EYP Family.. :)))
then hard and tiring
committee work and top
of session _ John Lennon
with song ,,imagine" and
tears in everybody's
eyes.. none wanted the
session to end.. and at
least PED PED PED PED..
have to be sincere I feel
PED even now.. I love
EYP
My first EYP experience
was several month ago
and to my surprise, I
found it really addic-
tive. For the first time
games seemed really
boring, childish and I
asked myself: "What am
I doing here? I am not at
school any more to play
games and sing". But
then it turned out to be
awesome and funny......
After coming back
home, I found myself
singing " If you look at
me Zulu you will
see....." That's when I
realized that I wanted
to go to another session.
I loved GA most of all,
where you have to pre-
sent your resolution,
defend your position and
sum up the whole work
you did during the previ-
ous days.
Well, to apply for first
session I was addressed
by my schoolmates who
were missing one person
to make up a group of, I
believe 6, people to ap-
ply for the session. Thus
I wasn’t really any sort
of enthusiastic activist
in respect to EYP and
than it was mainly heavy
drinking: we didn’t
really take the whole
thing seriously. we
had to come up with
a resolution, yet it
was mostly thanks to
the other part of our
committee

made out of two dif-

Some of us were “lucky” to discover,
that they will have children until they
are married…

Nobody knows what to expect from
the future, but FacebookFacebookFacebookFacebook quizzes
help us to be prepared for some im-
portant events of our lives. For exam-
ple, some EYP-ers already know
what date they will get married, or
when they will get pregnant…
