Those photos make me miss Albania. I lived in Tirana for 4 months and Sarandë for a month. I never got to travel much there, didn't even make it to Blue Eye after a whole month in Sarandë during the off-season. Albanians are still my favorite people, but the government is unfortunately not so open to Cambodian immigration, so we have settled in Suriname.
I love that Albanians have a word "xhiro", which means to dress in one's finest clothes in the evening and take a stroll.
I think they are opening to the world more and more. This year Saranda is even a stop for the huge cruise ships and I'm not sure it was such few years ago when I visited the town for the first time.
Thanks for your feedback, I didn't know that tradition,wonderful!
