The Gjirafa bustrip from Saranda to Tirana was a horific but nevertheless very interesting experience. 30 passagers in a 20 people capacity bus, because the original 50 people capacity bus broke down halfway. No airco (and 40 degrees outside). People fighting for a seat. Me and some others sitting on other peoples trolley in the aisle, 4 people on 2 seats in the front and they kept on loading in even more people on the way. And then in the end ask for a tip for the good service. Of course thé masstourism is a nice chance for more economical welfare. But the local society is not prepared or well-organised enough yet to handle this all well. Avoid Sarande in mid-summer by the way, it felt like they are trying to make it the next San Antonio Ibiza or Benidorm. Tirana was so much nicer for us. In any way we wont go back to Albania before i have my driver licence in order to be able to go to smaller less touristic places to taste from a more authentic culture and society.

@NewLifeTravelers14 күн бұрын
@tonymodrono5953 In the tragic end to my mother's life, a gift came about a little over a year later. She had left me a small inheritance, and instead of sitting around the U.S. waiting for it to inevitably be drained, I decided to take a shot at what I call a "real life." So, I bought all the gear that you see at the end of our budget gear video, researched every single day for about 4 months all about this life and where to go....that's covered in our latest video about the 'apps and sites'. And decided the risk be damned, I wanted to live while I had a window of opportunity to do so. The whole goal is to get this channel and our website off the ground to monetize before the inheritance runs out. And to get others to see that life is a one-time only gift that should not be taken for granted and time is the most precious resource we all have in life so don't waste it. Because both can be gone tomorrow. Most rational people would call it irresponsible, reckless, or just flat-out stupid. I knew that I could do this, and I haven't had a day off now since April 17th, the day before we left. I literally work from the time I wake up until I just can't keep my eyes open any longer, every single day...no exceptions. That's how bad I want this new life to be permanent. I just want to live, truly live, and I've never been happier in 44 years than I have been for the past 3 months. It's definitely not the exact way I would advise others to do it, but I just couldn't take the miserable existence any longer. And the clock is definitely ticking on me, but this was my one shot at living a life that makes me happy and excited each and every day. Although the stress and problems that arise can be overwhelming at times. It's worth it to be truly happy and to truly live. I know this is extremely long-winded, but my hope is that you can better understand. If you and your wife have any questions, I'm always around and would be more than happy to give you honest answers, if I have them.

The Women-Warrior park is named that because of the white stone sculpture that portrays abstract women representing the women that have fought during WW2 along with the partisans. It is the first statue you see when you go from the Triumph Arc towards the Park. With Skopje 2014 a lot of other sculptures were added and it came to a point where not a lot of people know what the blocky abstract statue is. Thank you for visiting Skopje and I hope you had a wonderful stay!

Its funny how certain things change your perspective. We spent the last 3 years living in Mexico and they have a SERIOUS stray dog problem. Not just strays, but virtually ALL of them look starved. Now here in Albania in both Elbasan and Vlorë and seen lots of stay dogs as well, but most look much healthier than the dogs in Mexico. Its not right, but I have seen much worse. I saw one sitting outside a few homes and all the homes had food outside for this dog and that dog was FAT! The problem Albania has is it is the stray dog dumping ground of neighboring North Macedonia and Montenegro. Its well known that those countries use Albania as a place to send their dogs to keep their dog populations down.

It's quite alright, nothing to feel bad about. Sure, the couple of negatives mentioned aren't great, but we really did enjoy our time in Albania. Whenever we get to go back, we were looking at Shkoder, Durres, Vlore, and Gjirokastër....oh, and definitely gonna squeeze Saranda back in there again.
