"Better to be a dog in America than a man in Albania"

Went up to the north of Albania to a town called Shkodra. Was a bit more like the Albania I was expecting. Poorer, fewer cars almost zero tourists and quite Soviet looking. Didn't feel especially safe after dark, mainly because everywhere was deserted.

Back to Durres on the Albanian riveria and a few more days of more relaxing. Then went onto Tirana again and finished our last night in a town called Korca in the south-east, close to the Greek border.

Now back in Macedonia and it feels like Italy.
