Childcare on the Azerbaijan forum:
Can anyone tell me what childcare support there is in Baku (ie Nurseries etc). Also, are there many British companies located in Baku, are there many British families there?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi All, I would like to know if there are lots of Africans living/working in Azerbaijan and how welcomed are they? Thanks in advance. Kelis.
In general, reasonably friendly. But no, there are not lots of Africans and, sorry to say, my sense is that they have a hard time here.

New job in Baku on the Azerbaijan forum:
I am about to move to Baku to begin a teaching job. I will be living there alone and wondered if anyone had any advice about Baku in terms of shopping, socialising, sightseeing, security etc.
Thanks

Hi this is Sayyad hussain from Baku Aerbaijan,
hope you will be fine, could you please tell me you are still in Baku?
could you please send me your contact number,
Sayyad hussain
Best wishes on your move. Glad the book was helpful. You will find Baku's parks and many fountains a real pleasure after Kuwait... The Interntional Women's Club has coffee every Friday morning if you have a free Friday before you start work. 10:45 at the restaurant above McDonalds at Fountain Square. A great way to meet people.
If you know of any local Christmas or New Years events that would welcome other expats, please post details here.
If anyone is missing family and friends and looking for things to do over the coming week, why not plan a local get together -- meet fellow Expat Exchange members at a pub or restaurant (be sure to tell us what town or city you live in). Post a get together inquiry here.
We're collecting Christmas and Hanukkah photos from around the world. They will be displayed in our newsletters and on our site. Photos of your city or town's holiday decorations, holiday celebrations, Christmas markets, religious displays and more. E-mail your favorite holiday photos (larger resolution preferred) to connect@expatexchange.com. Please tell us about the photo and where it was taken.
If you would like to submit a report about celebrating Christmas and Holidays in Azerbaijan, go to: http://www.expatexchange.com/rptvisitor.cfm?rid=91&anonymous=yes
Thank you!
