Hey i really like How to dates russian Girl. Video
I would sign up for Rosetta Stone but they don't have Albanian or Bulgarian. Lovely video though. Well done!!
You are doing quite a fabulous job with the Albanian video... I watched your Ohrid, Macedonia video as well. Consider visiting Pogradec, the other side of Ohrid lake. I am originally from Pogradec. Greetings
@@saml849 hopefully they will in the future!
In 2000 I started meeting a lot of Albanians who had come to England. I loved their warmth and hospitality. I quickly learned their language and in 2003 I went to Tirana for a short holiday. I loved it so much I didn't want to go home. In 2004 I sold my house, left England, and came to live in Tirana. I love it so much! I could never go back to living in England again.
I am english and live in alb we should have a coffee lol
@@jamesloxton1292 I'd love to join you both. Being born and bred in the Western World isn't what it's made out to be.
Cool man.
great Sandra! I wish I could do the same, keep my german salary but live in Tirana 😂
Really u having a laugh 😂 ,that is amazing to hear dear ,well not just because of is my country ,but I would say all Balkan countries are stunning ,but then Albanians are famous for their hospitality friendly ,there is only one Big issue with Albania 🇦🇱 only politicians the destroying such a beauty ,is sad thou ,Sandra soon a might come back in Tirona ,I do live London now ,all the best in my home town 👏👏
Loved Tirana, Albanians so warm, friendly
But only in albania, if you meet albanians abroad I can't say that !!
@@danimasta Rubbish!
@@gel2503 how many albanians do you know outside albania??? Look at the statistic at the europol the tell you another truth about that
@@danimasta More than you obviously do. I know a large number of Albanians. Stop being racist
@@danimasta I am Albanian and I am proud to be Albanian. I do not know how many Albanians you have known in your life, but to make sure that no one has had your friend. Albanians have a word "BESA", if they give that word they give their lives for you !!! BESA = Trust !!
Albanian is very good 🇦🇱
Greetings from croatia 🇭🇷👍
Croatia is very cool also!
Greetings from Albania!
Last year was in Zagreb and enjoyed every second of my stay there. 😀
Greetings from Tirana.
Kosovo is very Serbia.

I have lived in Tirana for 5 months now. Born and raised in Texas. When I told people I was moving to Albania, they always said "wait. Where?" I absolutely love this country and agree about how us Americans/Canadians can think we are the best things since sliced bread. Living here is totally opened up my eyes and expanded my world view.
Yes! Good for you for trying somewhere rarely talked about!
I would love to live in Texas lol
Welcome to Albania)
I went to Albania earlier this year; visiting Albania is a must if you've not been.
I'm an American who has spent most of the last two years in Albania. I think you'll find that the percentage of people who can speak and understand passable English is not so low. Enjoy! And thank you for uploading this.
It is seeming to be a lot better the longer I stay here!
90% of the Albaniens youths speaks at least 3 diferent languegs! Italian,english,greek!
Jps
You must fluent in 🇦🇱 now
@@ladi324 Faleminderit! That's "thank you"... right?
@@jps0117
Yep
You are doing great!
Keep up the good work
Imagine visiting Albania in spring season 😍 When everything blooms 🥰🥰
Wd be the best thing you have ever done
yessssssss
I visited in March 2019. Thanks for the memories. I had a great 2 weeks. Albania, highly recommended.
I am an Albanian who lives in Toronto, Canada. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for all the kind words about my Country!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I really want to visit Albania being that's the only country welcoming Americans.
Albania had one of the highest approval ratings for the US in europe, second only to Kosova (another country with albanian majority). That is until Trump came along. It dipped a little bit, but still it's pretty high.
We love Americans there ( foreigners in general ) we feel respected when you choose to see Albania .
@@eister6058 I Love Albania 🇦🇱
Americans were there for us when no one was. (During the war) So for that we are forever grateful and our home is your home 🇦🇱🇺🇸 👍🏻
@@fitnessEris Thank you. I remember a little about that but i will defend Albania if the help is needed again.
Awwww, I was there in October, I ate in Oda 3 times. The owner and her daughter run the restaurant, and they were so sweet to me! The food was delicious. I went to Albania and North Macedonia and really enjoy the two countries! Albania have many towns that are so beautiful! Thanks for the videos!
It's a great place!
Oda is awesome!
Hey Alina, I am an Albanian that grew up in Tirana but I moved to America. I wish I could live in Tirana on an American salary. Here in Texas even if I had a million dollars I never get the quality of life of Tirana. I miss just walking outside and feeling alive. The city is buzzing.
Im sorry to say this but you are wrong about life in tirana 🙃
I live in London and i feel exactly the same. I want to wake up in the morning to see the sky blue and just to feel alive.
Alright, I'm on the way!
Bald and bankrupt used to filmed there it’s fantastic
Wellcome man
Big hug and Love from Algeria 🇩🇿to our brothers ans sisters in Albania 😘❤
I from Morocco 🇲🇦 I live in Germany I love Albania very very good people
Watched your original livestream a couple of days ago and have to say Tirana looks amazing. Love this outdoor terraza cafés and restaurants, healthy bites and bike culture they have. Their language is as mysterious and unique as the Hungarian and Basque are. Added to my destination bucketlist :)
Albanian language is the real " Ancient Greek" language. Greeks don't speak " Ancient Greek" language, their language it is called Koine, the language of the Church and Byzantium, a language made up. They don't understand " the Ancient Greek" language at all, but Albanian can explain Ancient Greek and Archaic Latin language, that's why we call Albanian " the mother tongue of Greek and Latin". Albanians never changed their language, Greeks changed it twice during history. Albanian is very primitive( ancient), it has 365 syllabus words, while Greek has only 7. That's why Albanian is called the language of Pelasgians and Illyrians, the only tribes inhabiting the Peninsula. Greeks or Helen's never existed in history. They were created when Greece was created,on the back of Albanians. Even genetic tests are proving who the " real Greeks " were. History needs to be written properly, because this has been the most manipulative story of all time, all done with the " blessing " of Europe to destroy the most Ancient people of Europe - Albanians.

@@user-wj5yz2pw5t What is your problem? If you get annoyed, get away from Albanian videos.
@@ireneshqipe1353 This is not an Albanian video but a video about Albania, and the one who created and posted it provided commentary. I'm not annoyed seeing Albania, which is a beautiful country, but the comments that have no basis in truth.
As a Canadian 🇨🇦
I love your videos! I will be back in Tirana in a couple weeks to make some videos! ❤️ Keep up the amazing work, and keep on being beautiful 🔥
Have fun!
Hi Alina! Thank you for showcasing these places in Europe that is less explored on social media. I have been watching you for the past months before you set on this fulltime travel journey. Very glad to have more solo female travel content creators on this platform.
As a solo female traveler who also creates RUclips travel videos, I definitely relate to your way of thinking and traveling once one arrives in a new place, how long one does stay due to content creation and all. All the best and wish to see more videos from you :) Cheers!
Aw thank you so much! I just checked out your channel and your content is amazing! Definitely love that there's a growing community of female travelers out there. Will keep up with your journey!
@@AlinaMcleod ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Hope that our path will cross one day ☺️
There's absolutely nothing to do in Albania once out of Tirana.
I am from Tirana, I have not visited it for a year and I miss it every day
1:55 the flags are because it was Albania independence day on november 28, nice vlog, Welcome to Albania
Love tirana from tehran🇮🇷❤🇦🇱😍
🌹
I watch Albanian music videos in addition to others. Thank you for intro of Tirana.
I'm from Singapore and I was so impressed by your recorded travels! I've got to visit these places asap! Thank u for "showing me around". Be safe!
Albania is officially on my list! Thanks!
Happy to hear it!
Amazing video of my lovely country Albania!Thank you so much Alina that you bring me nostalgy and emotions!!
Really looked forward to this video! I've been wanting to visit Albania for some time now and your impressions of Tirana make it go up the 'bucket list' of destinations. Thanks Alina!
Happy to hear that!
Watch davidsbeenhere! You'll want to book your ticket right away if you watch his vlogs about Albania.
I loved this video as I was just researching Albania as a retirement destination. Well done Alina!
This was fascinating , thank you. Restaurants , cafes, supermarkets with goods, nothing like the Albania i saw in the early nineties .
Capitalism works lol
It has changed drastically!
You say Tirana, but I hear Toronna (Toronto). 😉 It's a hometown thing. Once the lockdown ends I'll visit my Albanian barbers and tell them about your videos. They are really good guys who tell me about their home all the time. Looking forward to more. Enjoy your visit. ✌✌
haha aw thank you very much!
I visited Blue Eye in Albania few years ago. It was so beautiful! Such a beautiful country with warm and kind people . Greetings from California !
Tirana looks very impressive. Thanks for the amazing video.
Tirana is the city of fun
Hi Alina thank you very much for all your work that you do, my contry is beautiful welcome every one 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱
I’m looking to go in the near future to see my friend who lives in Tirana and this video 1000% makes me want to go more😍Thankyou!!
You are very welcome!
@@AlinaMcleod ❤️
@@AlinaMcleod just to add your extremely gorgeous
I dunno what to say probably the only things i can say is that im so glad that you toke the time to travel in our beautiful country and of course you deserve the best such a beautiful soul you are. Hope we see you again i wish you all the best :D
Tirana will become a great destination to East Europe. It has a history from pre-Helenic, passing through Roman and Bisantine empires, WWI and II and Soviet Union regime. Its sea, mountains, tradition, food, dance, religion, costumes, and the charisma of people are much more than the buch of the buildings of Tirana.
Tirana looks like it has come on leaps and bounds in the last 5 years since I was last there 😃👍🏻On the language side, more Albanians speak Italian than English as a second language so that can be another option if you have a little Italian 🇮🇹
It's definitely more modern than I expected! Good to know about Italian, but sadly I know neither haha.
@@AlinaMcleod The young generation almost all speak english. Whenever you are stuck try the youngins.
✝️🇦🇱❤️🇮🇹✝️
Benvenuto 🙏🏻🍺🍺
Yes, it has changed tremendously in thr last 5 years, not only Tirana, but the whole country!!! wlecome back anytime, take the cheap ferry to Durres, the rest is cheap!
I LOVED IT I'M FROM BRASIL
Thank you for sharing these great videos with us! I've never been to Albania before and it seems like a really interesting place, it mixes a lot of cultures as I see - Balkan, Mediterranean, Islam. A typical Balkan country - diverse, beautiful, unique! I hope they'll join the EU soon, so that their country can develop more rapidly and attract many more tourists. As for you, keep travelling and keep discovering the Balkans! There's much more to see! And share with us, so that we can discover new places we've never been to :)
There definitely is! Thank you :)
If tourism officials of Albania have seen your Macedonia & Bulgaria series they should be rolling out the red carpet for you , knowing the boost you will give their industry. Have a great time Alina ! 😃
haha thank you very much
who do u think they lit up the city for...
Dear David,
Bulgaria, Greece and Croatia have always been tourist hotspots, so they don't need a boost.......
But Alina creates very cool videos indeed :))
Unfortunately Albania is just beautiful by it's nature and geographic position, tourism industry isn't developed.
Good to see you again and enjoyed todays video. Its true you really long for food familiar to you when your away and its also great to experience local food like todays evening meal. Looking forward to seeing more of Albania and really like the drone footage to see what's around. Best wishes Alina
Hi Alina from Waterloo, Ontario. Originally born in Kosovo and wherever I go there I always have to go to Tirana and other beautiful places Albania has to offer. I won't be surprised if you've fallen in love with Albanian landscape. Best wishes.
You always make my day just a little better. Thank you!
Such a beautiful slow paced vlog, so enjoyable to watch and so relaxing too. I have seen other vlogs of Tirana but they all seemed like rushed and I didn’t enjoy them. Love your attention to details, details matter so so much to change a mindset especially when it comes to stereotypes. Albania has its problems like any other country does, there are always to sides everywhere you go but the way you appreciated the beautiful things you saw around Tirana it’s really heartwarming and makes you wanna watch more of these vids that you are making. Greetings from Sydney!
Hi Sunshine🌞
So nice to see what you are up to in Tirana, seem to be much for you to explore there✌😊
Looking forward to the rest of your journey, thanx for the video Alina, stay safe and take care for now🤗
Thank you, Jonas!
I love it ; I love everything where you go and I love ❤️
Fantastic start to your Albania series!
Drone shots and overall cinematography were splendid as usual. I found your first impressions valuable as it gave me a fresh new perspective on travel overall.
Also, I purchased Rosetta Stone's lifetime plan yesterday through your link and I'm loving it so far! Currently taking an intermediate French course and found it well-detailed with a perfect balance of speaking and listening lessons. Definitely a valuable language learning tool 👍🏼
Aw thanks so much, Rahul! I'm so glad you're diving into French and I hope you find Rosetta Stone as helpful as I have! Keep me updated :)
*Thank you very much for promoting the beauties of my country. :)*
2:10 We don't have official religion and 70-80% of Albanians are non-religious / secular. Religious practices are more a family heritage rather an obligatory thing to do.
Idiot statistics without any serious data yes we are seculars but speaking in numbers we are a Muslim Majority Nation by far
@@benniblanco876 We? Dude, you're Greek. Albania is one of the least religious countries in the world. The 2011 census can be taken with a grain of salt, still 57% isn't "Muslim majority by far" but what would a Greek know? You're just Orthodox Turks.
Hi Alina! This is a great introduction to Tirana and Albania! I’m impressed - well crafted video with informative content, that’s a pleasure watch! Tirana is beautiful! Living in the US, I also miss unique Canadian foods - even Harvey’s Hamburgers. The Rosetta-Stone offer comes just in time for Christmas giving! Thanks! Are you thinking of doing a livestream from the shores of the Adriatic Sea? I’d love to see some warmer beaches during the cold North American winter. Be happy, safe and healthy, Alina!!!
Thanks, Gediminas! Yes, I love Harveys too lol. Their veggie burgers are surprisingly very good for a fast food place as well. I will be doing a live from the north to begin with, but will try and do one from Saraande and on the coast later on. Hope you enjoy Rosetta Stone if you try it!
Beautiful video, thanks for sharing!
Hey sweetie, thank you for the video, hope you had a great time 🙂
Great work very informative, enjoy the trip to Great Albania.
Loved watching this video. You explain everything so well. Thanks
Beautiful video Alina
Thank you, Alex!
Thank you! Wonderful video
Hi Alina !loved watching yr vlog, truly a delight.God bless !!
Thank you so much!
I hope you are not feeling too homesick , we are all with you in our thoughts and best wishes
Thank you!
You are awesome. Thanks for The tips
Great video of Tirana and presentation too.I enjoyed watching this video...i was born and grew up there,so its intereresting always to watch videos about Tirana and the fact that you Alina,were so impressed for the first day spending there...Im sure after the first day you will enjoy it even more there
All the best from ont,Canada.
I am very impressed by you Alina. You are a wonderful person. Not only beautifull, but good and smart also. God bless you!
Yeah, I'm impressed too. I'm always improving in my Geography, but I had not even heard of Tirana prior to your trip. What a cool, dynamic place, particularly with the Albania I read about in the 80's as one of the more sequestered Nations in that Cold War Era. Enjoyed it immensely.
Thats done dude...now is open
@@jovanbregu2057 Oh, yes I know...and what a nice Country. Cheers!
I have never been in Albania, but my first impression watching your video is that of a modern and safe country. Tirana city is really nice. Thanks a lot
Very enjoyable and helpful to see your videos
Thank you 👏👏
You warmed my heart. This is the best commercial that one could do to Tirana!
Another great video! I am planning on going to Albania (maybe even for a long term stay) and like you I did not know what to expect and now Im super excited to go! Thank you so much for this! p.s. I would also be interested in knowing more about how covid has and is affecting the country. Thanks!
Thank you! With covid its been an average of around 700 cases a day, around a 3 million population. Almost everything is open with the kind of rules you'd see anywhere else like wearing masks, limited amount of people in businesses, social distancing etc. There's also a curfew where businesses have to close by 10pm and everyone has to be off the streets by 11pm. Of course you can go out if it's an emergency or work matter at those times. Overall it's fairly relaxed though other than protests that had been happening this past week over a police shooting a civilian. But those likely won't still be going on in the new year I wouldn't think. Hope you enjoy your time here!
@@AlinaMcleod Thank you so much for your thoughtful and informative response! Cant wait to see the upcoming videos :)
Such a huge fan!
Welcome to Albania 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱
Amezing city lovely have a lovely weekend dear..😃😃😃💐

Love your video thanks 4 promoting Albania
You play some lovely music and looking forward to more videos.Stay safe and God bless.
Tirana seems to be a cool city....Thanks Alina for advocating the not-so-popular destinations which are equally beautiful, quaint, safe & touristy as compared to the popular destinations! Keep exploring & stay safe….from India.
Thank you!
Awesome very professional coverage , you doing super
Thank you!
Awesome, great video
It's a lovely place and the prices compared are rather reasonable. Enjoyed the video.
I love to see your videos, you speak with patiencely , and your english is preety to listen .and you give hood information
Hi ALI...🙋♂️the most BEAUTIFUL smile in the Galaxy 🙋♂️🎅🇦🇷🙋♂️😘
C'est un vrai plaisir de "voyager" avec un aussi joli guide
WOW thanks Alina...It definitely is a place to spend some time in, Yes I noticed right away how modern it is there, I bet you will find many treasures as you explore deeper. Your first impression is right on, and I look forward to see what you find. Your video is high quality here, you are a pro at this now...I look forward to some great discoveries you always share. For the record to all of you here, I can attest to the quality of the Rosetta Stone program as I got it a couple months ago and it is tops in my book. You have to try it, I'm thankful to Alina for showing that a few months ago. Great video, Alina....just superb!! Cheers everyone!!
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video, Michael! And thank you for mentioning you're enjoying Rosetta Stone! I think it's a really amazing program to help people learn more new languages, so I'm glad you're finding it helpful as well.
Wow this video is fantastic I really appreciate it .Tirania is quite beautiful and impressive. I'm planning to go there maybe next year.
I think 2021 will be more appropriate I can't really move because of covid 19.
Really enjoyed watching this video All the best
Thank you and hope you have a great time!
Alina Mcleod, your way to express ideas is excellent.
Thank you!
Glad to. See this video been thinking of you there during this troubled days . Don’t be afraid is nothing major ( is normal there unfortunately) just try to avoid them . Good luck I hope you are doing well
Great video of your first day in Tirana, Albania, Alina! I've never heard much of anything about this small, but obviously underpromoted country by 'the West'. Always 2 'Thumbs up' here, for your hard work!
Thank you so much!
Thank you AlinaSweety ❤

Hi Alina welcome to Albania 🇦🇱
Hope you make the must of it

However I wish you well and hope you make the must of it
Thank you for the amazing video 📼

This was so great! Hope there will be trips to rural areas :)
Very nice video really enjoyed it . I am very glad you enjoyed my home city about the language old people can speak only italian or mabye some russian . But all young people can speak English and german italian and french . And one thing Tirana has around 1 mil residents i think you saw some old data 😁
Great job on Albania ...Candice Bergman , even in her voice tonality...
