Dude this is my neighborhood I love this week I used to go everyday back and forth from my work to my house 30 years ago it was different I missed it bro thank you so much and now I live in Boston Massachusetts for 31 years I can't wait to go back thank you brother if I come back I'm going to get in touch with you thanks again
Patrick, you are one great guy! It is so cool that you've made such a great connection to these folks and now they are your community. I wish there were more videos like this from expats. Aside from being very interesting, it really helps to determine if you would like living there. Thanks again, my friend.
Every expat with a channel should make this video if they haven't already. Giving back to the local community. Showing small town life in a beach town. Also, just showing what a healthy downtown looks like for Americans who might never have seen a healthy downtown.
Thank you! I saw you on Vagabond. I'm retired military and was looking at Panama because I actually spent alot of time in Panama and South America. I'll always be a gringo there. I fully get still a foreigner. You have definitely got my attention with your new home! Take care.
It is getting hard watching your videos… They are excellant and make me miss people, places, and food there… I keep want to say to the screen “oh go try this place too”… hahaha Great Vids..
Hi Patrick, I really enjoyed this video! Now I'm looking at moving to Triana and liked finding good business to work with. The Pizza place was great. Plan to be their in March for pre moved trip.
lol..im trying to make a little longer. But i get it. My street has been so good to me i hope i can give them some free advertisement, never done this before
9AM things and people start the day. That is EU and Albania. 9AM here I have worked 3 hrs already 😂 The sidewalks are being reopened to place either water pipes or Internet cables. That is a negative thing in Albania. They do the streets and sidewalks then; O Geez…We need to do this as we did not do it. Dig up the road and sidewalk again. Creates unnecessary headaches. I hope you are recovering from the Scooter incident my friend. Have a Blessed week!
I like this philosophy. I have lived in small towns since I moved to California and supported the local businesses and restaurants. It was really important to support our neighbors during COVID. I tried to learn the names of the owners and staff of the businesses. I used to be a member of the local Chambers of Commerce when I lived and worked in Georgia, as well. The small businesses make the economy work. I look forward to meeting my neighbors when I arrive.
My wife and I really enjoy your commentary on Tirana and Albania 🇦🇱 we will be visiting Tirana from 23 Sept - 22 October and would like to have an opportunity to meet up with you. Please let me know..
Hi Patrick My husband and and I enjoy your videos. We are going to visit Tirana in the spring. We would like to retire aboard. Do families in Albania have pet dogs?
Hi. Just found your channel - looks amazing. Can you tell me where you have settled - is it downtown Tirana? Also, I saw someone mention you had an email address - would you mind sharing it? Thanks
Hi simon. Im live near the Bazarr. But hope to be moving to the city of Pogradec soon. I made a email just for youtube..its...www.roadway12345@yahoo.com. Im getting lots of email..it may take time to get back to you. Thank you for watching.
Hi ! i showed how to get to this street from the bazaar. I even named businesses to use as references for navigation. If you go back to the beginning you will see what i mean.
Love it! Will be there in a couple of weeks Patrick (finally). Would love to meet up w/ ya'll? Whatsapp? Still trying to figure out the tech side of it all...
Hey Patrick, it looks like you are really developing your network in Tirana. Just want to give you my opinion on whether to point the camera away from you or at you. I am 100% certain away from you works best. There's another You-tuber I subscribe to who constantly points the camera at himself when he talks. I don't need to see him to hear him and miss seeing what he is talking about. In fact, I was looking at a recent video he made today. Unfortunately, he made himself the focus. I had to stop the video. I'm even playing with the idea of canceling my subscription to his site. A word to the wise.
Thank you. I agree unless im at the table giving a review on something. (( like 3 month review here }) But walking around i figure better to point camera in front of me. But thats just my point of view. i can still spin it towards me from time to time. Thanks for your input.
Yes, I agree. Thought of that after I sent the comment. Gives the audience a brief connection to you. When you're seated, by all means, point it at you. That works, unless you have footage you can show while you're talking. That works too.

My wife is from Boston, Glad i filmed your old neighborhood. It has great charm.

Thank you for that. We love it here. The connection was we weren't cocky. Takes a little time. But they are a warm people.

All those cars and you’re afraid of the scooter 🤣
I almost got taken out by a scooter there. I still have nightmares !
1:25 Thought it was Vlore for a sec.
love my neighbors
What is the area called or known as?
Id say known for the bazaar.
That area is called Sheshi Avni Rustemi or Qendra Stefan.
@@ilirjean Thank you sir !
I retire in 5 years and am looking to move to either Turkey or Albania . In South Florida now
The Albanian FLAG is Awesome!
It is ! I Have 3 shirts with it. I love when i see old glory next to it. And many times i do.
Patrick is the bazar called pyzari? In albanian
When i hear them say it , .sounds like bazar, then put a long E on the end of bazar...hope that makes sense.
