About
My candle burns at both ends
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends -
It gives a lovely light.

Hi Edna!
Im Anna from Hungary, and im starting a volunteer project in Baku this August for the organisation EVS.

I would like to have a contact with someone who lives there, for some practical questions.
If you think you can help me, please let me know. If you knwo some volunteers there, please also let me know!
Thank you in advance,
Anna

Hi Anna,
My name is Lena not Edna. I recommend you check out Aaron’s blog because he writes more in depth about Azerbaijan than I do.

From his blog you can find a bunch of other blogs (by other volunteers and Azeribaijanis).
Do you have a couchsurfing account? Some of the current EVS-ers stationed in Baku are on couchsurfing…. you can find them there! Otherwise, feel free to post your questions here.
Good luck.
Lena

Hi Lena,
Take off the video please. It wasn’t cool to bushwack a person like that and put a video of them online.
Thank you,

No one forced him to say those things and he was aware I was filming. His name is not even in the video.
Will think about removing it… it is kind of an ugly video. But I don’t think it’s offensive (to who?) just because it shows a man callously expressing himself.
How did you find it anyway and why are you so bothered by it? And why did you make your name “will find”? That’s kind of creepy ;)

Nobody knew you were taping and posting to youtube or you would have been asked to stop. You show other people who were very hospitable to you and do not like to be in any videos. Please remove that video because you are hurting everyone but your intended target.
