Truso is a magical valley located along the Tergi river in the Georgian Kazbegi region. It is dotted with ancient towers and mineral lakes. There are also a couple of villages that are mostly abandoned in the aftermath of the Ossetian war. The tranqullity of the valley is tinged with a sense of loss. Everything is still and silent, there is nobody around apart from some soldiers controling the access to the South Ossetian border. Ketrisi is a tiny village in the middle of the valley. It is mostly in ruins, but one house is still inhabited by a family that lives there with its cows, sheep and hens. In this picture you can see the grandmother of the family washing some dishes, her little granddaughter and their hen.
