Traveling as a group can create bonds that last a lifetime, and our recent trip to Azerbaijan, Baku, and Georgia with KIITEs was nothing short of extraordinary. This adventure not only allowed us to explore the rich cultures and stunning landscapes of these two countries but also brought us closer together as a community. Here’s a recap of our unforgettable journey, filled with laughter, unity, and love.
A Journey of Unity: Wearing Our KIITEs Hoodies
From the moment we embarked on this journey, we knew we were in for something special. One of the standout features of our trip was the KIITEs hoodies that we all wore. These hoodies symbolized our unity and love for each other, making us feel like a true family throughout our adventure. As we roamed the vibrant streets of Baku and the charming towns of Georgia, the matching attire sparked conversations and smiles from locals and fellow travelers alike.
Discovering the Wonders of Baku
Baku’s Iconic Attractions
Our exploration of Baku, the capital city of Azerbaijan, began with its iconic attractions. We marveled at the Flame Towers, which illuminated the skyline with their stunning light displays. The group took countless photos, capturing the beauty of this architectural marvel against the backdrop of the Caspian Sea.
Next, we wandered through the Old City (Icherisheher), where history comes alive. The cobbled streets led us to historical landmarks like the Maiden Tower and the Shirvanshah’s Palace, each telling its own story of Azerbaijan’s rich heritage.
Cultural Experiences
One of the highlights of our trip was immersing ourselves in Azerbaijani culture. We participated in a traditional tea ceremony, sipping tea from pear-shaped glasses while indulging in local sweets. The experience fostered a sense of camaraderie among our group, strengthening our bonds as we shared stories and laughter.
Visiting the Azerbaijan Carpet Museum was another memorable experience. We admired the intricate designs of the carpets, each narrating tales of tradition and craftsmanship. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about Azerbaijan’s cultural heritage.
Culinary Delights: Savoring Azerbaijani Cuisine
No trip is complete without indulging in the local cuisine, and Azerbaijan did not disappoint. We feasted on Plov, a fragrant rice dish, and Dolma, stuffed grape leaves that delighted our taste buds. Sharing these meals was an essential part of our bonding experience, creating lasting memories over delicious food.
Exploring the Charms of Georgia

In the capital, Tbilisi, we were captivated by the blend of modern architecture and historic sites. Strolling through the Old Town, we admired the colorful balconies and ancient churches, including the stunning Narikala Fortress, which offered breathtaking views of the city.

We took part in a traditional Georgian feast, known as a supra, where we savored local dishes such as Khinkali (dumplings) and Khachapuri (cheese-filled bread). The warm hospitality of our hosts and the joyous toasts made this experience one to remember.
