In this video, we will shed light on all the fun things hidden in this beautiful but neglected European country. Get ready to learn all that you don’t know about Albania.

Adventure Elliot is a bilingual travel vlogger (English and Spanish) with a particular interest in the Spanish speaking world. I enjoy taking adventures - big or small - and my goal is to show the Spanish speaking world 1 video at a time.
The goal of my channel is simple yet complex: I want to document and share authentic & educational content of anything related to Adventure Travel, Geography, & Language in the Spanish-speaking world. It's kind of a loaded topic, but it allows me to never exhaust my creative outlets. The truth is, I've always been extremely passionate about what I'm doing on my channel, but I never properly documented it when I started adventuring as a younger man in my college years. I've made over 150 Youtube videos in both English and Spanish, and I have aspirations to make 1000s more. If that sounds interesting to you, join the community and follow me along the way.. After all, we're just getting started.

Aljazeera - The Traveler - Albania - Episode 1 (activate subtitles)
We haven’t been posting much over the past year. Because we were busy with these ones.
This is the first episode from a season we directed and produced for The Traveler, a new travel series broadcasted on Al Jazeera Arabic.
What do you think should we publish all 15 episodes?
Make sure to activate the subtitles while watching.
All episodes:
originally launched and broadcasted in June 2018
This time: Albania!
“Hidden gem” is an overused word, but when talking about Albania both words have their true sense. Being closed off from the world for decades, ruled by despot forces, Albania opened it’s doors only a quarter of a century ago. After the fall of Communism, Albania was at once revealed to the world. Rugged mountain scapes, immensely rich of deep turquoise blue water flowing through it’s rivers, hot springs, a Mediterranean vibe, the friendliest people and last but not least the highly fascinating history and heritage; castles, ruins from the big empires to the bunkers left in the past century.
In this episode the remote and rugged Albanian Alps, the Krüje bazaar, The Skanderbeg museum, amazing Lake Koma, Lake Shkoder, Rozafa Castle, climbing and zip lining in Kosovo

This was our first day in Tirana and here are my first impressions of Albania. It's a great place to visit and I really hope to get back there soon. If you have a chance to visit the Balkans, make sure to visit Albania.
This is from a trip I did with my Mum through The Balkans in the summer of 2018. I didn't publish them at the time because I wanted to catch up on my posting schedule and so I ended up skipping a whole bunch of videos. Now I have the chance to catch up and share them with you!

A little about us...
We’re Lucy and Ben, two photographers from Cornwall, UK who’ve been living and travelling in our self-converted LDV Convoy camper van for the best part of four years. We’ve travelled all across Europe from West to East documenting our encounters with the people we meet as well as our own travels and adventures. We embrace the ethos of slow travel and minimal living, generally spending between 2 and 8 weeks in each country, getting to know each culture, cuisine and people as though we were locals ourselves as well as hiking, wild swimming and camping as we go.
We are currently on our third 7 month long road trip, travelling through the Balkans for the second time beginning in the French Alps and venturing as far East as Turkey, visiting 13 countries in between.
Our plan was simple: visit every country in Europe in our rusty tin can of a van. So far we’ve made it to 28 countries, travelling as far West as Portugal and as far East as Ukraine, having all sorts of crazy adventures in between.
Our main motivation for our travels is to capture photos and create documentary projects, so our van is primarily a vessel for our photography. We tend to focus on topics such as nomadism, traditional ways of life, the effects of recent political events and the difficulties of living in remote rural areas as well as documenting our own adventures and lifestyle on our various social channels.
We’ve had so many memorable experiences on our travels, and our photo documentary projects have given us an intimate insight into the lives of many different people and brought us together as friends.
We've visited the folk living in one of the most remote corners of Europe in the Albanian Alps, experienced the culture and traditions of the horsemen in the Hortóbagy National Park, and experienced life with Roma gypsies in their village in Romania, and there's still so much more to explore...

After six long months of not being able to travel in 2020, one of the first countries in the world to open back up to international travelers was Albania. I had been itching to travel and explore again, so I flew to this relatively unknown Balkan nation for a two-week road trip unlike any other. My first stop was the capital city, Tirana.
???????? BALKAN PEARLS TOUR OPERATOR:
???????? TRAVEL MEDIA EU:
???? RENTAL CAR ALBANIA:
Tirana is a unique, funky, and modern city that dates back to at least the 15th century and still shows signs of its days under Communism rule. The people are welcoming and friendly, and eager to share a glass of rakija with a stranger from half a world away.
????SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER:
???? MY LINKTREE:
Sites like Tirana Castle show off the city’s history, as it’s a beautiful Byzantine-era structure built before the 14th century. But it’s also a show of Tirana’s progress, as the interior is filled with modern stores and restaurants.
Elsewhere in and around Tirana, you can learn about local culture from meeting local potters, exploring the ancient amphitheatre and tower in nearby Durrës, and visiting the site of one of the most impressive military stands in history in Krujë to the north.
But, in my opinion, you can’t truly understand a destination without diving into its cuisine, and Tirana is full of excellent, mouthwatering food. Dishes like trahana, fërgesë, lakror, qofte, yufka, and roasted lamb are rich and hearty and stick to your ribs, while in nearby Durrës, you’ll find some of the tastiest seafood and pasta I’ve ever eaten in my life!
Visiting Tirana and its surrounding area is a true treat for your taste buds, but don’t take my word for it! Let me show you. So come with me as I take you on an epic adenture as I explore Tirana, Albania for 72 amazing hours!

What is the Cost of Living in ALBANIA? (2019)
Ever since I moved to Albania people from the US have been shocked at how little things cost. So, in light of this, I decided to dive into the cost of living a normal life in this beautiful country. While the cost of living may seem extremely low, you have to keep in mind that average salaries are also low. Life in Albania isn't exactly cheap for many Albanians.

Life on an ALBANIAN FARM
I spent a couple days up in the mountains on a self-sustaining farm. All the food that we ate was made, produced, or grown on that property - fruit, vegetables, dairy, honey, etc. The fact that the farm is self-sustaining is made even more interesting when you hear stories about the communist era in Albania. Fruit that was grown on the property was not allowed to be consumed, but rather was collected by the government and sold throughout the cities and villages in the surrounding area. This makes it all the more amazing that everything they eat is from their own property.
