    And that's a wrap on our time in Albania! What an incredible time we had...it offered so much more than we expected. Has Albania made it to your bucket list?

      Glad to hear that you enjoyed them! Our time in Albania was quite an adventure and it stirred up a lot of interest to see more of eastern Europe.

    Hey you two!
    We need to plunder your knowledge on Albania... we were sold on the country from what we had seen on RUclips last year but seeing it through your eyes and just how comfortable you both appear from there, we have to get there soon.
    Great video as ever.
    All the best

    Continuing to watch and enjoy your video series - so interesting and well-done! If you've already done this in a video, I'll find it eventually, but if you haven't, I'd love to see a logistics video (like how to you figure out where to get your hair cut, learning the procedures for common activities, like whether you weigh produce yourself at a grocery store, driving rules when you rent a car, etc.)

    • @OurFreedomYears
      @OurFreedomYears  2 года назад

      Those are all great questions! We'll try to weave in more of our everyday logistics into our videos. Of course, there's a lot of trial and error, especially with things like learning the common practices when buying groceries, which vary quite a bit in each country. We find hair stylists the same way we find doctors, dentists, vets and other professionals...by searching for highly rate providers on Google Maps and seeing which ones have a lot of English reviews. It's mostly worked so far!

    I laughed so hard watching you cross the round about in Albania. If you can do that then you can drive anywhere.
    I am Albanian but I learned to drive in the US and obviously, I drive like a north American. I had the exact same reaction as you, I was overwhelmed but after a while I became like a local (which means, do not allow them any single cm, else they’re gonna pass you)
