"First impression" by Alessandro Morello

Being volunteer in Baku, the city you don’t expect, where past and future live together. From the mysterious walled city to the modern Flame Towers, at the crossroads of Europe and Asia a country where hospitality is sacred. I think Azeri people really know how to enjoy life. You can drink a tea, play nard, walk in the streets. The buses has no bus stop and no timetable, for sure you will arrive…just be patient. The traffic jam is the same that you can find in Milan or Rome or every big city on earth but if you are not in a hurry you can wait and try to discourse with the taxi driver mixing English, Azeri and Russian, 20km in 2 hours is not so bad.
If you are Italian, you will discover that Ramazzotti, Celentano, Toto Cutugno are still on the hit parade.
