It was supposed to be just a short stop on our way south, but it turned into a great Balkan love affair. Our winter expedition to Albania proves that the Land of Eagles is a true gem in the off-season. We take you on a journey in our rolling home through places where the sun shines bright even in January, and famous attractions are all ours to enjoy.
In this category, you will find stories from empty trails at Lake Ohrid, family trekking in the Langarica Canyon, and walks through the City of a Thousand Windows (Berat). We write honestly – no filters, no sugarcoating. You’ll read about whether the “hot” springs of Permet are actually hot, what vanlife in Albania looks like with kids, and where to find the best byrek. If you dream of an authentic, wild Balkans experience accessible at your fingertips – make yourself at home in our Albanian adventure.
