I was skateboarding heavily!! I was smoking a lot of Mary Jane and just wasn’t looking at the big picture and was just living in my own selfish world !! It was prob around 2014-2017 time and the guy I met had a car mechanic shop attached to the gas station , not far from Santa Monica ! It was a crazy time in my life , maybe one day I can turn my stories into a movie ! He was eventually thinking about buying a rv trailer for me and putting it on his lot and I would be security etc as well but I just couldn’t keep my ish together and looking back I guess I just didn’t care - he used to have me car pool with him too , to funerals or whatever etc so he could drive in this one lane meant to go faster etc but you need a passenger! It’s crazy as homeless as I was and struggling , something about being at the bottom and not being tied to much , felt so real , felt so pure , I felt really at one with my body and skateboarding at that time though I was using all my energy and emotions into my skating ! It was crazy the shyt I went thru , saw , felt and obtained

Whoa, this video really hit me with a huge blast of nostalgia! When I was a child (around 10 y/o or so) and into my 20's I was very good friends with a couple Albanians guys. When they first moved to the US as refugees they spoke little to no English, but despite that & because of their kindness and hospitality, we quickly became very good friends! (We are still friends to this day, but they moved away and are married and have their own families now, so we don't get to see each other very often anymore,) We became more like brothers really. But anyways, as they learned to speak English and I would try and help them, they would in turn help me learn to speak Albanian, plus just being around it all the time, you start to pick up things. Even though I don't remember much of it, I was still able to instantly recognize a few of words, like "thank you" (the very first thing I learned something I'll never forget!) and "good", and things like "Raki' and some of the different foods. (I remember the food so fondly! His mother used to make homemade Byrek" (they called it "Piti" though IIRC) and it was absolutely heavenly!!!) So watching this video and hearing those things, just really took me back! It honestly made me want to start learning to speak the language again. Albania, is definitely on my bucket list of places I want to go, because of all the great things I've heard bout it and because of immense hospitality and kindness of the Albanian people! Plus, as seen in this video, the women are beautiful!

[@user-zv7yb4yp9g]

I love the little bit at 3:20 - she's like "Don't drink too much!" and he misunderstands and says? "Drink too much? Okay!" his delivery and general skill with the language (even if he is a highly skilled beginning speaker) probably makes her think he was cracking a joke. If anything it probably made him seem even more fluent, haha

Glad that you're visiting a wholesome place on vacation. When i get drunk on vacation in a group of strangers, I'd be afraid of waking up with one less kidney.
