Our GA program includes a 10 hour per month retainer. 

Not sure how you'd use 10 hours per month of assistance? 

Once you get used to assigning tasks, you'll probably want more than 10 hours!

Below are just a fraction of the random tasks you could assign to your GA.

Translation & Communication

• Accompany you to appointments to help with translation and negotiation.

• Making calls to anyone you need to communicate with, landlords, building maintenance etc.

• Magic. Our assistants will work hard to get results, some things though, are simply not possible in Georgia. We'll try to assess your request before putting the work in and let you know if it is impossible. But if we do put the hours in and it doesn't work out, refunds are normally not possible.

The GA Program

Our GA team is a shared resource. You buy in to a monthly package shared with other expats. We manage the GA team, you just message/call whenever you need help.

You'll be amazed at how many tasks your GA can take off your hands, from finding a trustworthy vet (with local prices) to translating over the phone when you are struggling at a shop, booking appointments, setting up interviews for a nanny or cleaner, sourcing hard to find products, and much more.

This program is currently by approval only and there is a wait list. Register here and we will be in touch if and when we can offer you a spot.

WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY OFFERING THIS SERVICE TO NEW CLIENTS (2022 onwards). We'll update in the future if we reopen the program.

It's free to register. If you are approved to join and then accept, the 10 hour minimum monthly retainer is paid in advance by bank transfer (standing order).
