Getting There

It will take three flights to get me to Azerbaijan. I will fly from Fort Lauderdale to Newark, from Newark to Frankfurt, and from Frankfurt to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. There my host teacher Halima will meet me at the airport along with her sister who is a radio journalist in Baku. What must it be like to be a radio journalist in Baku? I can't wait to ask her all about it. At that point, however, my travels are still not quite done. Halima and I will take either a train or bus overnight to Ganja, the second largest city in Azerbaijan and my final destination. Ganja is where Halima lives and teaches, and that is where I will be spending my two weeks in Azerbaijan.
