Love It There Podcast Episode 75: Albania

تفصیل

Your favorite sister duo chats with their guest Anna about her transformative travel life and her immersive, off-the-beaten-path trip to Albania. Anna shares how she pivoted from a traditional career path to teaching abroad, later becoming a digital nomad based in Madrid, and how travel—and especially solo travel—reshaped her outlook. The core of the conversation focuses on Albania: how a last-minute, budget-friendly trip became a vivid, life-affirming experience in Tirana and the mountain town of Berat, the country’s landscapes, people, culture, food, and logistics. Anna also offers practical tips for travelers exploring Albania (and similar destinations) and reflects on the joy of slow travel.
