MEET YOUR HOST:
Rachel & family sold everything in 2014 and never have looked back. We've been completely nomadic since 2018, homeschooling our three children. Some of our favorite family travel destinations include Turkey, Romania, New Zealand, Spain, and London. Our two younger kids will join the Pop-Up and will be 14 and 17 years old.
We run the Worldschool Pop-Up Hub and love the people we get to meet from this venture. So far, we've personally hosted or co-hosted more than 25 events and have attended a handful more. Can't wait to invite you into our mobile communities.
LODGING & NEIGHBORHOODS & TRANSPORT:
The best neighborhood to stay in is Sabayil, ideally pretty close to the old town. The host family will be staying near Nizami Street.
Baku is a very walkable city. Busses and metros are well priced and easy to use. Taxis are also an option. Flag some down or use one of these apps: Yandex Taxi, Bolt, Uber AZ (you'll have to download the AZ app, the regular one won't work).
