Shkodra is the bicycle city of Albania, has always been. My father (a history teacher) used to ride 30km to work at a village school. And on weekends he used to carry me and my brother on his bike going to the Shkodra lake beach. Every family had at least a bike during that time.

[@screamingeagle1316]

Shkodra has it all: rivers, a lake, the seaside is 30-40min away (Velipoja), a big castle (Rozafa), museums (Marubi museum is a must for a lover of history like you)...etc.

[@johny5933]

Shkodra offers a lot. You have the biggest lake in the Balkans, and you have the beach also. And the Albanian Alps

Nice video! Loved it! I was looking for information and vlogs about Albania including Shkoder and then came to your vlog! I started watching and it seemed to be so interesting that I continued ..Also your shirt was looking familiar to me but I didn’t notice in the begin..only to note at around 10 min of watching that I was like Oh it’s pakistan cricket t shirt 😂😂 was funny to find it out as I didn’t know you before this vlog (being from there originally, it was an excitement to see this 😅). Nice video btw, I am going to check your other videos too! May be I will book the same hostel (never stayed in hostels before but your video is convincing me to try it once! Thanks 🙏🏼

[@JetLagWarriors]

wow thank you! Enjoy Albania!

Hallo Ivana so much change looks good as always 🌟

[@arikarakushi2189]

I really enjoy your vlogs your rocking Albania so far your gone love theth try lumi shales is like little Thailand

[@gerardfernon3339]

During your little protestations of love in the pizza restaurant Ivana was reading from St Paul's first letter to the Corinthians on the wall (chapter 13 - love is patient, love is kind etc. etc. etc). Actually, St Paul may well have travelled to Albania - he says he spent time in Illyricum. You may well be walking in the footsteps of the great St Paul!!! Maybe some Albanian viewers can tell us?

[@armandpelivani3227]

Yes is true. The first christian altar its builded from saint paul in butrint.

[@gerardfernon3339]

@@armandpelivani3227 Thanks. That part of St Paul's letter that Ivana read from the wall in that restaurant is often recited at (Roman rite) Catholic marriage ceremonies, to describe the sublimity of married love for the benefit of everyone present. So I was definitely hearing wedding bells for Steve and Ivana in that pizza restaurant!!! Anyone else???

[@lynia6587]

Well , definitely Shkoder is a beautiful town away from the busy streets and less cars. Such a nice hostel , cosy and good price too 👍 Ivana looks so beautiful with her new hairstyle 👏🏻 you both are so sweet 🥰 and I wish for your happiness and may the love you share today grow stronger 👍🥰😘

[@skbeebee8923]

This new hairstyle really suits you, Ivana.. The bus fare is just almost similar to Malaysia, maybe just little higher fare .. The hostel really good value , clean, charming, liveable city. For elderly and those with some physical disabilities, well this kinda places would be suitable too..not need to rough it out trekking , sweating and getting dirty, wet, etc.. Cherries so cheap, for that amount Steve purchased..might cost 80 times more in Malaysia..I never ate any cherries for more than 10 years..so expensive in Malaysia.. Very wise Ivana and Steve to buy and eat lots lots cherries, cheese , olives, yes..the pizza really look so good.... Pizza Hut better buck up ..

Omg yes finally we are going to get the Theth video😍

[@zjarr6279]

You were probably there on weekend when everyone is either in Theth or at the beach, Shkoder is not empty, not a crowded city either but it looked deserted when you were there.

[@76REDscorpio]

Like he said in the morning was more crowded, remember once that time of the day “ZHEG” hits then I guess everyone still takes the short nap and then back at PJACA again. Shkodra ♥️♥️
