  • Learning about Albania's communist past was not easy, but it was worth it. We hope you enjoy this Tirana vlog as we take you to Albania's most famous bunker and to the House of Leaves, which is basically the Albanian version of the KGB.
    This is basically our goodbye Tirana video (for now), so we will see you next week in Kruja, where we almost got killed by cows (not really lol).
    If you have any questions, let us know! We are always happy to help. Thanks so much for being here!!

      Isn't that so crazy!? We were shocked!!! It's nice to see that Albanians are still the kindest and most welcoming humans after everything they've been through so recently. Glad to hear you enjoyed the video Jane ❤️

    Such crazy places to visit - but definitely worth it to learn about Albania’s dark past.

    Such a cool video. Crazy to see what happened in that country so recently. Scary and heartbreaking 😭 I’m also sending this video to Hollywood so Gordon can be cast for the next Scream 4 movie 😱😘😜

    Lots of Albanians experienced the torture and deths of that regime. At the end of the day is part of our history. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello. Thank s a lot for the videi. I was wondering if this is a visit you can do with children. Or do you think they will be afraid?

    • @waysoftheworld_
      @waysoftheworld_  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello - I think it really depends on your kids haha. It's obviously a very serious place and the exhibitions are meant to be a little intense. So it depends on how old your kids are and if they are easily frightened. Probably it's better for ages 12+, but that's just our opinion 🙃

    Oh bro you don't know how crazy he was. Albania is littered with bunkers of all sizes.
    I Think we have also submarine nuke bunkers. Dude was more nuts that Putin or Stalin, he cut up ties with Russia for not being "Stalinist enough", whatever that means.
    Go to the game room tho thats the only place that makes me feel ok in that bunker.

      People are ignorant and racist in Albania, but in the mountain and in the village the people are very kind. If you are not blonde and want to use the bus to go to another city, you must show your passport to the driver and his colleague
