κανναβουριος κανναβουριδης I’m Christian Albanian but I prefer Turks to Greeks . In Greece first thing ppl ask you when they hear you’re from Albanian is are you orthodox or Muslim ( I’m Catholic) I’m turkey I was there 1 month no one ask me my religion but everyone was friendly when they hear you are Albanian. Greek are very ignorant and Turks look more white than Greeks which shocked me

There's a lot of Albanians who emigrated to GB , the majority of which you never hear about cuz they just live their lives peacefully , in addition you also get the gangsters and uneducated people , who have given Albania the reputation it doesn't deserve to have .

Berat looks next level in terms of the scenery and buildings - loved the elegant bridge over the river. And Stacey provides the best food review ever seen on KZbin at 9:14 - that had me laughing out loud!

[@DaneAndStacey]

That was the best review ever haha. It was like we were in school or a library, the owner (didn't speak English) and her son were just standing there watching us... the whole scenario was hilarious.

[@RexWaldron]

@@DaneAndStacey 😂😂

[@ArjolP]

The warm welcome you have recieved in Albania is something of a tradition here dating from way back. Even during communism, when some people were so poor they barely had anything to eat, they still respected the guest and tried to offer him whatever they had. For the most part, this tradition has survived today too. Sadly, just like any other place, you can't hope for everyone to be good. However coming across a douchebag is very rare, so I hope you guys don't get unlucky and I hope you enjoy your stay. I might be a little biased, but I would like to say, there are a lot of beautiful places here. The alps of the north have breathtaking scenery, and the rocky beaches in the south are beautiful and refreshing. Sadly, because of a lack of investment for political reasons that I would not like to get into, the infrastructure is still lacking for a country which hopes to turn tourism into its main economic subject. Maybe the "virginity" of the beaches is somewhat attractive to some people, so there are some positives to it, but the situation must change. There are a lot of beautiful places which are unaccessible for tourists and that is a big shame. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed Albania, hopefully in the near future it will get even better.

09:00 Fruit with syrup is just jam. I thought jam was the same everywhere in the world, fruit with syrup. When it's homemade organic jam, Albanains like to serve just a little bit to guests, on a small plate, because it's way too sweet and you wouldn't be able to eat much. It's kind of an old tradition to serve homemade jam (never from supermarket jars). My grandma used to boil our garden fig fruits into jam. It was delicious.

[@DaneAndStacey]

Have a look at 08:47 - it's not jam, it's some kind of firm fruit or something. We still have zero idea what it was! The jams we tried through out Albania were all delicious though, so many little local shops with lovely ladies letting us taste.

[@perciptazi125]

@@DaneAndStacey ​ @Daneger and Stacey It looks like prune jam. The plates it's served on are typically used for jam. Because it's homemade, prunes are not mashed, but whole fruits.

I am really surprised by the comments, isn’t Albania on the list of the most visited countries in the world. I heard this year they are getting around 6.5 million tourists, and that puts it in the top 40 in the world, for example Brazil only gets 6 million.

[@DaneAndStacey]

We've never met anyone who's been to Albania before, wouldn't have expected it to be in the top 40 at all. In the UK they get a bad rep for drugs and gangs etc apparently so tourism is still very slow from that side.

[@b012345100]

@@DaneAndStacey Per capita , albania factually is almost on par with greece. This year the number will reach circa 7 million foreign visitors which is an exponential increase of 800 % this past decade. However given the small population , in absolute terms the number of tourists cannot compete against the one in (much) bigger countries. All the best to you two , as an albanian i need to thank you for your flattering videos :) !

Albania is worth visiting. Tourism is in infancy there, and people very willing to please.

[@jamesebola1250]

@@User12345fan No, not true. You must have them confused with another country whose name starts with "A". Keep in mind that Albania was totally shut off from outside world for many decades of Communist rule. The only country they had relations with was China. It is all changing now.
