Amazing country with amazing mountains. Did hiking for 5 days after went to the sea. It was the most surprising trip. I was surprised by the mountain views and tracking routes, how prepared they were and comfortable
Posted: May 6, 2025Experienced: April, 2024Tirana is a great city. I mostly walked around or took the public bus, which was rather easy to understand and the people helped me. Walking around at night I felt mostly safe. I would recommend soing a walking tour to really see the whole city!

Spent 103€ for accommodation (9 nights) Everything else is also very affordable. You will be taking buses everywhere (unless you want a taxi/rent a car). Don’t drink the water. I met up with a friend in Shkodër, traveled in a group of four to Tirana (go see the sky bar - it’s free, and a walking tour), quick detour to Ohrid in North Macedonia, then to Sarandë to surprise some friends. Amazing memories, welcoming country, and minimal tourists rn. Feel free to reach out if you have questions!
Posted: April 14, 2025I felt safe oberall but i would not recommend to solo travelling women. Taxi drivers and hawkers can by quiet intrusive so do not make eye contact if you don't want to buy something. Also there are a lot of stray dogs in the streets and on the beach, especially at dawn. The beach is very nice and there's always opportunities for playing volleyball or renting a pedal boat/ jetski. The restaurants and appartments that are not direct at the beach (but still only 2 minutes away by foot) are way cheaper amd still clean with good food :)
Posted: March 18, 2025Experienced: September, 2024I felt safe, nice views, great weather and pretty cheap. Nice people and helpful. A lot of homeless dogs on the streets. The place I stayed at was clean and full accommodative. I met also few polish people

Tirana is the capital city of Albania and you find all kind of people there. Anyways in all these years I’ve been living here, I have never felt unsafe. There are enough weirdos walking in every street but they seem harmless. I feel safe here and wouldn’t be worried of anyone or anything.

Hi! My name is Klea and I am from Albania. This past year I’ve gotten too much into traveling but I got tired of waiting for people so I decided to take my first solo trip:) I am mostly an outdoor person, but on the other hand I do like me a good club. I like spontaneous decisions and like living on the spot

Hi! I’m Lisa. I started traveling this year and I’m so excited about it! At the same time, I also started learning English, so I’m not yet completely fluent. I feel more comfortable speaking Italian and Russian, but I’m happy to practice and improve. What I love about my life is the freedom to do whatever I want: I live alone, I don’t have a relationship or a job that forces me to stay in one place. The only barrier that sometimes holds me back from traveling all the time is — of course — money. I love all forms of art. I enjoy feeling deep emotions in everything I do. I realized that it’s actually simpler than it seems to connect with life on a deeper level — you just need to be open and present. Traveling, for me, is a way to live fully, meet new people, and experience real emotions. I can’t wait to share new adventures and create unforgettable memories together! Do be honest: i ask chatgpt to help me write this presentation text, hahah.
