Hi there,

I am not sure if these posts for Azerbaijan are looked at by anyone as replies to other posts seem a little thin on the ground, but hey-ho, someone out there may have some information for me.

I will be working out in Azerbaijan for a few months with my colleague conducting a report on the oil and gas industry. We are both business journalists (funnily enough) and will be based in Baku.

We need to find a place to live, of course, and a reliable and hard-working assistant to help arrange meetings and with the translating side of things.

So, would anyone know which letting/rental agencies to go through and what part of Baku is best to be located? We would like something that is relatively central so that we can get to meetings easily (unless there is no real heart to the CBD as everything is spread out) and of course, near to the bars and restos, etc.

Is there a decent website where I can post a listing saying that we are looking for an assistant for a few months...or maybe reader, you know of one!

In addition to the above, since my colleague and I are new to Azerbaijan we would be very grateful for some insights to the country and to the city...such as dress (i.e. is it acceptable to wear westernised clothing), beach attire, beach quality, nightlife, restaurants, dos and don'ts, etc

You can email me at [email protected] (no spam/junk please) or simply reply to this post

Best,

Katie

Katie - I share your sentiment about very few number of postings here!

Did anyone sent you private messages!? If not, perhaps it's not the place to post for feedback since I just posted two questions on VPN and Gym.
Cheers
