Land of Fire and Wind
This is a top pick! ... the climate in Azerbaijan, but at the same time sent winds whipping through the streets. Exploring the fire of Azerbaijan further, I visited Gobustan, with its small mud volcanoes burping methane into the windy air. The site overlooked the blue-grey ...
Meet Andre
This is a top pick! I met Andre in downtown Baku, where he was playing accordion. Stopping for a while to listen, I sat with the local park cat. On another day, I also stopped to see Andre. Andre said: "my father said if I play accordion, God will always ...
Music Borat might listen to
This is a top pick! ... Although the poverty rate has been reduced in recent years, the promise of widespread wealth from development of Azerbaijan's energy sector remains largely unfulfilled. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/aj.html ...
When good nights go bad
This is a top pick! ... for a morning quicky from the resident hookers and their respective pimps and left the floating brothel to find a new hotel. ... Azerbaijan was a lovely country but staying in the old ferry to Turkmenistan which was now a raunchy hotel on the Caspian ...
showers!
Spent the day in Baku and met up with the Gordons in the early evening. We had showers! I was disappointed to find that most of my tan was ingrained dirt. Graeme took us out for a curry and few beers and we returned to sleep in beds! ...
getting lost on the metro
Chris didn't feel great, so Damien and I went into town to investigate the ferry, and while we were relieved to discover there was one the next day, we were surprised to find they were after over $600 for the privilege. We got a bit separated and lost ...
sense of foreboding
Well, it's taken all day, but we've made it onto the boat. This is one dodgy affair. Happily the few other passengers on this filthy freighter are mostly British, travelling around the world on motorbikes. Everything is filthy, and there is ...
Petroglyphs and Mud Volcano
Salam, habe heute noch einen Ausflug nach Qobustan unternommen, 60km suedlich von Baku. Man kann es ganz gut mit einem Bus erreichen (Nahverkehrsbus, ist aber doch recht schnell). Dort muss man dann aber ein Taxi nehmen um die Sehenswuerdigkeiten zu ...
Wpadka z wizą azerbejdżańską
Jest takie madre powiedzenie: "Kto nie ma w glowie - ma w nogach" - do nas ono pasuje jak ulal. Tak sie goscilismy u rodziny Mamuki, ze zapomnielismy zupelnie sprawdzic jak to jest z wiza azerbejdzanska i blednie zalozylismy, ze mozna ja kupic na ...
Mountain Village
Salam, von Baku bin ich mit dem Minibus (Ford Transit) nach Lahic gefahren. Die Sowjetunion hat hier ein gutes Vermaechtnis hinterlassen, oeffentlicher Transport ist billig (5 Euro fuer die 200km) und der Bus ist gefahren ohne voll zu sein! Sonst ...

Seki
Salam, von Lahic ging es mit dem Bus zurueck zum Highway wo ich mit einem LKW nach Seki gefahren bin. Dort bin ich erst um 12:30 eingetroffen, auch wenn es nur 140km waren, der LKW war nicht der schnellste, aber auch nicht der billigste. Seki hat ...
aserite juures
Lend Riiast Bakuusse oli üks veidramaid minu senises elus, kui hüplemine Chennaist Colombosse välja jätta. Kõigepealt lasti terve trobikond rahvast lennukisse, aeti siis mõne aja pärast jälle välja (hea, et me veel peale ei jõudnud) ja ...
Evaluating the stans
Salam, hm, bevor ich morgen Baku verlasse hier noch eine Bewertung der *stans. Das Essen war ziemlich enttaeuschend, Schaschlyk, Schaschlyk, Schaschlyk. Wenn es lecker gemacht waere waere es ja ok, aber es ist auch ziemlich ungewuerzt. Ich hatte ...

Ferry From Hell, Part II
Salam, ich war also um 19:00 gluecklich auf der Faehre, auf die sich kein TUEV Pruefer drauf gewagt haette. Die Kabine war auch nicht besonders schoen, keine Kreuzfahrtqualitaet. Und ich durfte sie mit einem anderen Deutschen teilen, obwohl wir die ...

Fire Tempel
Salam, mein heutiger Ausflug hat mich auf die Absheron Halbinsel gefuehrt, wo es in Surakhani einen Zoroastrischen Feuertempel gibt. Dies ist neben Yadz, Iran, der einzige Feuertempel ausserhalb Indiens. Er existiert hier schon sehr lange, da hier ...
azerbaijan is a twisted place
We foolishly wasted the morning playing birthday, but then we weren't to know that it would take 7 hours to get through the Azeri border. It was certainly an adventure. Despite being the main entry point from Georgia, the border was a run down ...
From desert to polar in 2 hours
Our nice crew that we had from Luxembourg to Baku left the plane and we were left alone on board together with the spare captain who was also a passenger to Singapore. As she is technically a part of the crew, she was lucky enough to get the beds.... we ...

Bakuu-Astara
Mingil hetkel saavad uudishimu ja pea kohalt kostev laulja unest võitu ja venitan silmad lahti. Avanev pilt on veider. Taamal mäed, muidu ääretu mudaväli. Iga natukese aja tagant pisikesed valged putkad, kirjaga "traktor" või "Kamaz". Muust ...
