⁠@@waysoftheworld_The architecture of towns is ottoman style (infrastructure wise) but the towns itself are inhabited since antiquity and have many layers of historical periods (Illyrian/Roman/Byzantine/Ottoman).So ottomans are literally the last that’s why it’s what smn can visibly see. Ps: the churches inside the castle are of Byzantine time. The walls of the castle are of Illyrian times.Roads like via Egnatia crossing close by is of Roman time.

@waysoftheworld_ Жыл бұрын

Hi :) 1. So, from city to city all buses had luggage storage, so we had no issues with that when moving around in the country... a lot of the buses are small, but they have space in the back for suitcases.. 2. Yes, you can. But as the replied stated, the places where they had no menus and served a lot of food were in very small villages. In most cases honestly, the food wasn't great, so we were not interested in taking leftovers with us. 3. This depends on the city.. some airbnbs had filters installed. We always ask our host. In a lot of the places in the mountains the water was super fresh and safe to drink from the tap. But in the places where this is not possible, you can buy water drinking water at the grocery store. 4. For the most part, younger people speak enough English. Some older people we talked to spoke Italian or German, but rarely English. However, our hosts at guest houses and airbnb's did speak enough and we were able to communicate with no issues. At restaurants I think most people speak enough so you can order and you can always learn a couple extra words :) but people are so extremely nice that they will go out of the way to make sure you understand them or that they understand you. It really is crazy to see how helpful people are in Albania!

You guys are awsome! Great observations of our country. Your food observations need a little uplift. If you go back and see yourselves in videos where you show your impressions while eating our food you may notice the difference of those videos and this one. However, you seem to have had sometimes disappointing experiences in certain restaurants and that is true. Most restaurants owners think that our traditional cuisine is not good for tourists and they are wrong. And for "byrek" we are Champions of the World haha which we make it in all kinds and shapes imaginable. But most importantly are the basic ingredients that make our food exceptional. That is during communist rule the country was totally shutdown from western world so everything was kept as it was for thousands of years although some pesticizing and chemicals were used mainly in lowlands near the sea. However, the mountains were kept clean and most crops were kept truly organic. Now all that is changing rapidly unfortunately but you still can find that taste of the old world which you cannot find in any other country be that around Mediterranean or around the world. Another factor is our land is very fertile. Haha and the "no" is not "yo" but "jo" haha. Thank you very much for giving our country such a positive overview. Cheers and good luck in your future travels.

@waysoftheworld_ Жыл бұрын

The food really does taste different in Albania - specially the vegetables and salads, they were really so so good!!! And yes, the food you saw in the videos of course were the incredible experiences we had, but we had a lot of bad experiences too. We chose not to share that in our videos because it's really such a small part of our travels and does not compare to all the positive and amazing experiences we had in Albania, but we feel like for this type of video it's better to share the good and the bad too. We miss the Albanian byrek! We had really good one in Sarande and in Elbasan. hahaha and happy to hear you were entertained by our Albanian 😂 that was the case for everyone we interacted with in Albania hahaha we like to try :) Take care and thanks so much for the well wishes :) Thanks for being Albanian!

I just came from Albania a couple of days ago. Great video. Thanks for sharing your experience. My experience was a bit different; people stared a lot, and it was uncomfortable. Before communism, people were isolated from the world, and thus, some people lack the maturity of seeing a person who may not look like them. Other than the constant stares, I was called inappropriate names that I will not write here. A few sad moments that I will not forget 😢... I had a good time, indeed, because I focused on the people around me who made my trip the best.

@waysoftheworld_ Жыл бұрын

from what we noticed, the preferred second language spoken by Albanian's will vary based on their age and where in Albania you are. Older Albanians are more likely to speak German and/or Russian, and younger Albanians in the cities are more likely to speak English. And then Italian and Greek also are relatively common - but more so along the coast. All that said, I think English and Italian are the best combo of second languages to get around Albania - but definitely don't expect everyone to speak it.

hi guys, i congratulate you for the video, but there are some incorrect info about history. 17:33. Berat was never an ottoman city. but Illyrian City, dating from over 3500 years ago. while ceramics find from 7th century BCE. initially attest to a settlement of the rocky hill of Berat by the Illyrians, and Berat has been called with ancient name Antipatrea. and Albanorum Oppidum from the roman empire, it is the city where the Ptolemy was born. even though the place where he was born is still unknown from world history, and some call him of greek ethnicity, while some others as roman egyptian , but the evidence and facts prove that he was born in Berat . even the name itself have meaning only in Albanian LANGUAGE . thats why it is important to know that manipulatet history is now over. as we know, greeks was never exist, they was just an Albanian tribe that was separated and created a new language which is Greek language today. and the term of hellenic helen or macedonia have nothing to do with greeks today, they are clearly connected with ILLYRIAN ALBANIAN origin. we know that Albanian language is the oldest in world, from where even SUMMERIAN language cames from. sorry for my english. have a nice day

You probably didn't watch the whole video lol - but ok. We made about 22 videos in Albania that cover each destination in more detail ;) This video is not about that.

Many thanks guys for a very informative video! What about the Internet coverage and Internet speed, in particular outside Tirana?

When we visited it was terrible, haha. I believe all the places we stayed in had Wifi - enough for basic usage... but not solid enough to take calls are anything like that. Our data coverage worked in the more populated areas, not in the countryside...
