Now i believe that Albania is a beautiful country , I'd love to visit Albania sometime next summer , thanks for your beautiful clip Gabriel , love from England :)
It looks like such a stunning place, I would love to go there one day after watching this video. So glad I found your channel, I love your videos, they're so chilled, relaxed, informative and enjoyable to watch, thank you.
Although I'm from Croatia, I've never been in Albania proper, except some over the border hiking in Prokletije mountains from Montenegro. In Google Earth I already have so many pinned places to visit in Albania, and now thanks to you Berat is pinned as well, while from before I've had that mountain already pinned, it is Tomorr mountain en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Tomorr Berat looks really nice!
Wow, good price on the room. You sure know how to find some good deals.You do a fantastic job editing your videos and getting them online so quickly , amazing.
I found your channel when i searched for people who made videos while visiting Berlin, because i'm moving there next month from Denmark. At first i thought "who the fuck is this weirdo", buut i actually feel bad for thinking that now. You are the must humble man, who just loves to travel and i can dig that. So keep up your great work, you earned yourself a new sub :) Stay good
I was born in this city. It's clean, peaceful, and full of history. It does look kinda deserted though...haha. I was there July 2016 and I remember it being a lot busier. A lot of locals do leave Berat in the summer months to vacation on Albania's southern Riviera. Hope you enjoyed dude!
Albanians are one of the oldest people in Europe. They orginates from the anicent illyrians. And the Albanian language is a unique language and it has its own branch in the indo-European family language tree. Albanian language is very old and i do not relate to any other languages!
I always wanted to go to Albania, it's nice to see what it looks like in real life. Thanks for that. Good timing for Corfu, I hope you can give us some advice. What part of Italy are you going to? I'll visit the Naples area, can't wait.
First of all, I was born in Albania but moved to New York for a better life. Albania isnt all that if you live there because many dont expirenece all of it. Many parts of albania are beautiful such a Shkodra, Dhermi,Sarand,Ksamil & more. Hotels are super cheap due to the low economy & wages. You should totally visit.
"Mother Teresa was an Albanian-Indian[4] Roman Catholic nun and missionary.[7] She was born in Skopje (now the capital of Macedonia), then part of the Kosovo Vilayet of the Ottoman Empire." Looks like we're all right. And Suru, she's Indian too, I didn't know that.
We are in Berat at the moment and went with your recommendation of the Antigoni restaurant. A stunning setting and they haven't put their prices up since you were there.
It is quiet because it's July, August and especially on weekends everybody hits the beaches as it is super hot.When summer ends, you will see this towns full of life and beaches deserted.( vice versa).
Berat is a UNESCO world heritage site because so much of it’s medieval parts have remained intact. It was called White City (Beograd) by the Bulgarians when they occupied it during the Byzantine period. The University is an amazing building on the outside, though when I was there last, it still needed quite a bit of work on the inside.
Hey Gabriel, I found out travel websites such as expedia uses cookies to record what flight we searched for last time you logged in and tries to increase the price to make you think the prices are rising and creates a compulsion to buy quickly. So, everyone out there, please clean/delete cookies from your browser before you use the website again. I found there was a significant difference in price when you delete your cookies. Since, your channel is for budget travel, I thought this is a good tip to share. Please, spread the word.
For some reason my flights are always getting way more expensive. I use incognito mode and delete my cookies. I just don't get it. And when I see an amazing price I always waited for two days or so to think about it. And when I want to book the flights the prices are always at least 50 % higher. But for my next flight I will book the flight straight when I see a good price.
I use Kayak app or the site. Its the best search site for cheap fares. Also, one of the great features is it shows you the cheaper fares. With kayak, you can see the same fare directly from the airlines and I usually try to book directly from the airline as i've been screwed 4 times by cheapoair.com
Did you go up to the castle? It's pretty cool as there is an old medieval town inside it and also a few old byzantine churches. When I was there entry cost less than $1.
- lol, I guess what I meant was that this was like the 'poster-child' of a European town/city. If I think of a European town, this is exactly would would appear in my mind 😉
Wtf you saying Aleks Kevyn (which most likely is your westernised name, your real name surely is a slavic one). If Greece is a western country, which lies southeast of Albania than it definitely makes Albania middle of Europe.
The edge of Europe as you said is in Grece/Bulgaria/Turkey -Bosphorus channel which is a few hundred km from Albania,so far from it, Albania is firmly within Europian continent. Greece on the other hand, together with Cyprus, Romania, Bulgaria,Malta,Spain,Portugal,UK,Ireland,Iceland,Norway,part of Russia,Armenia and Georgia are the edges of Europe. Learn some geography and history and you will learn that most of the Balkan peninsula has been for a thousand years part of the East Roman Empire and then for 500 years part of the Ottoman Empire so culturally is more or less the same from parts of Hungary/Romania down to Greece and Cyprus.Have you ever been to London or Paris? There are far more muslims living in those cities than in the whole of Albania. I guess it makes them culturally not europian also.And one more history lesson for you, it was the Albanian prince Skanderbeg who protected christian Europe from the Ottoman empire for a quarter of a century and the pope gave him the title Athleta Christi. And last but not least, have you ever visited Albania? I doubt it.
I wonder if the reason the last few places don't seem so busy is due to locals being on holiday as well? I seem to recall being told to avoid the temptation to visit Europe during Summer because the locals also go on vacation. Obviously bigger cities should have a good tourism infrastructure for those months, but I'm just wondering if this is the case in smaller places. Anyway, I've really enjoyed watching this trip!
nope , its about the temperatures. in the morning is fresh and usualy people go shoping (every day ,not a bunch of stuff once a week). midday pause and after 17:00 people move and start socialize and so on , and those ruins near the university are a burocratic bug , cant get rid of them easly , not enough funds too.
Gabriel, what a beautiful video, you remember me the really Albanian cuisine...I miss this! Thank you for the video, make me feel more proud to be Albanian ;-)! Pershendetje
10:53 Lol is true is very common to see these kind of buildings in weird you can go even in remote villages and find these kind of palaces in the weirdest places
At the beginning of the video when you are walking down the winding paths you notice there is a stripe of white stones running down the Center. I bet originally there were no stones, but instead it was a channel for rain runoff etc. Again looks like you have the city to yourself! Lol wow 8 euros for that meal! Maybe it’s time to retire in Albania!
elvis marku lol albanian are you but histori dont know..berat ist a turkish gypsies name..berat dipllome..qyteti i dipllomatve..antipatrea me kto krekt e lasht na kan rrujt karin se cdo gja qe ka emer hellen i qujn grekt grekt magjypt e mutit skan lidhje me helent..duhet korigju fakti qe emrqt helen ose romqt mos te perdoren si emra italian ose emra grek.
Turqit i kemi armiq por kjo sduhet te thote qe serbet i kemi miq, servet jane armiqte tane me te medhenj, po keshtu edhe greket dhe ruset. Berai ska asnje lidhje me Beogradin. Serbet e quanin Sfetigrad ne kohen e mesjetes. Me ben pershtypje se meqe beri ky serbi nje kompliment ti u hodhe menjehere ne mbrojtje te tyre. Mos e duaj kurre armikun vetem pse ke nje fe me te dhe mos e urre kurre vellain tend vetem se ka nje fe te ndryshme nga e jotja. Feja e shqiptarit eshte SHQIPTARIA
Gabriel I have to say something I enjoyed fully this video that's what I.am talking about much better then previous one North side thank you for your video well done man I.am pleased with that thanks
It is an amazing country !! I am half French half Lebanese and I live in Paris. I spend my summer holidays in Beirut every year and I enjoy it a lot !!!
Or you can simply ask the israelis to stamp on a seperate paper not included in your passport, that's what many tourists do to be able to visit Lebanon after having visited Israel.
Yes there is like a seperate sheet. When you arrive to Ben Gorion airport, you can simply ask the israelis policemen not to stamp on your passport but to stamp on a seperate sheet. They are used to that, because many countries in the middle east dont let you get into their territories if you have an israeli stamp on your passport. My french friends did that, they visited israel, got that stamp on a seperate page and they joined me afterwards in Lebanon without any problem.
A blessed good day sir Gabriel Wowwww nice simple beautiful place berat Albania simple place nice bukding restaurants foods and a its a wonderful place to travel and vacation keep safe sir Gabriel Godbless u from your solid fan viewer from the philippines sir vhin 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙂🙂👍👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏
I love your videos and I started traveling myself. You should do at least one mukbang video on each places you visit ....I see this type of videos while people talk while there eating gets a lot of views. Just an idea because I really love and appreciate your videos.
Next will be Corfu, then Italy, then Ireland, then back to California...then somewhere else. The rest of eastern Europe will have to wait for another trip.
Gabriel Traveler I think there is a ferry from Corfu to Brindisi. Are u planning to visit Puglia? If you go to Sicily, then I can recommend Cefalu, close to Palermo. And from there you could go to Malta!
Just for info, ALBANIAN LANGUAGE IS THE BASIC LANGUAGE.FOR ALL OTHER EUROPIAN ONES... WE HAVE 36 LETTERS...and our language is the most reach one. Greek and latin languages are dialects of the albanian language. Please read more abot this.
Andi and olta is not embarrassing anyone. I think you just misinterpreted on what she wanted to say, because it appears that she doesn't type very well in English. So i will try to clarify for you: 1. The Albanian language retains many ancient Latin words which are not found in any of the modern Latin based languages of today. 2. The Albanian language also has ancient Hellenic words which are not found in the modern Greek language. 3. Many of the terms and translations of ancient toponyms and hydronyms across the balkans including Greece, are translated using ONLY the Albanian language.
Parthenon is dedicated to goddess Athena. Athena in ancient greek mythology was a virgin. Parthenon is dedicated to her. This is why it's called the house of the virgin. Also there is no ancient greek word that a modern greek speaker cannot understand. Your country has a rich history. Try to make it more famous instead of stealing other countries' history
Yes, to some extent but you always figure it out. Lots of people speak English. Otherwise it would be much more difficult to get around. But otherwise, if interacting with someone who doesn't speak English, you figure it out one way or another....or find someone who does speak English.
loving you present trip Gab . .. the style of how you travel +tell the story, is REAL travel, 'best travel Vlogger' by a country mile!! .. Albania, is better, nicer, and definitely worth visit after this, Is now put on my list, i intend to in future, moving to a Greek island, making a Base there AND doing alot of travel, of some or all these countries. Keep Up the great work Gabriel / top notch mate .. . . love from Ireland
Thanks Gabriel for the Balkans Tour . Qestion for you Gabriel: Is it right that driving in Albania is very dangerous ,and streets are not maintaind properly,if you want to rent a car and drive all aroud Albania.Is it safe ? Any recomendations ,Thanks
Heey gabriel! im a big fan of yours, i Always watch ur videos and bought ur book. In a month i go 6 months travelling in thailand, but i have a question on what websites do u check for cheap one single hotel rooms?
Lejen i dha Jo, sepse para 2000 vjetesh nuk ekzistonin fjalet ber dhe ati. Esht ven shum m von si emer nga pushtuesit dhe ka qendruar n kete menyre. Emri i hershem i Beratit eshte Antipatrea. Studioje historin m me kujdes
I do not doubt it but Berat castle is unique and for that reason is a Unesco World Heritage site.Anyway, i enjoy watching your videos and keep up the good work.
I've seen too many castles myself, but Berat's castle is something else. The mini village inside it, still inhabited, the peace and quiet, and above all, the views! I actually went there a second time just to climb up on one of the towers and just sit there for two hours straight, admiring the views, relaxing, thinking,... That place is the number one reason for me to return there. I would go and live there if possible!
It would be really cool after Balkan series to see Georgia, Azerbaijan, Iran and then go to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan. That region seems very interesting :)
Iran would be amazing from what I hear. But I definitely have questions about the security situation, like as an American if you might get accused of spying, especially trying to film.
I wish Gabe all the best. Turkmenistan, Tajikistan are just few places higher than United States in official top of Most dangerous countries in the world - look it up. And these countries are in lower places than Mexico or India where Gabriel has traveled, so don't give me this "talk" about danger. Belarus is also dictatorship, but it's very peaceful (and I'm talking about tourists). My comment was about interesting places that aren't explored as much as other places and Gabriel seems like the kind of guy who likes to explore the unknown :)
Please you're missing Macedonia from the Balkan counties. Maybe you can also go to Moldova, the forgotten country of Europe. Moldova is also one of the least visited countries on Earth
I know, I'm bummed to not see Macedonia honestly but it will have to wait for another time. I'd like to do another trip starting in Greece and going north from there up through Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, etc. all the way to Finland. Maybe next year.
Macedonia is a Greek region , you mean FYROM !!!! I didn't expect that from you Gabriel, since you have come to Greece many times. This is rude to us my friend !
Anastasia Wall macedonia has nothing to do with greece. Macedonian was a historical region in northgreece south albania and in fyrom as you said. Macedonians and greeks were 2 different things like kari and dollari in albanian.
Now i believe that Albania is a beautiful country , I'd love to visit Albania sometime next summer , thanks for your beautiful clip Gabriel , love from England :)
You're welcome to our beautiful Albania! :) If you want, we can help you with a private tour here! Best regards,
The food sounds so delicious and affordable. Looks like such a cool city. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for putting the Balkans onto my list of regions to visit, looks lovely!!
Totally.
Albanian people and balkans are not the same, in fact that is an offence to most albanians
heidigretel welcome sir
Thanks for the tour of Berat, Albania. My daughter's (American) fiancé is from Korçë, Albania. This makes me want to visit!
It looks like such a stunning place, I would love to go there one day after watching this video. So glad I found your channel, I love your videos, they're so chilled, relaxed, informative and enjoyable to watch, thank you.
Is not only berate
We vgot few city's wich they are stunning places to explore
Hayley welcome Hayley.
Although I'm from Croatia, I've never been in Albania proper, except some over the border hiking in Prokletije mountains from Montenegro. In Google Earth I already have so many pinned places to visit in Albania, and now thanks to you Berat is pinned as well, while from before I've had that mountain already pinned, it is Tomorr mountain en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Tomorr Berat looks really nice!
Aleksandar Gospić they are called Albanian Alps and are called "Bjeshket e Namuna " or "Accursed Mountains.
southern "montenegro"is Albanian land.
Aleksandar Gospić hope you have or had if you finished the tour a good time peace
Croatian bro!!!!

In real life its even better
Best places to visit

Wow, good price on the room. You sure know how to find some good deals.You do a fantastic job editing your videos and getting them online so quickly , amazing.
I found your channel when i searched for people who made videos while visiting Berlin, because i'm moving there next month from Denmark.

So keep up your great work, you earned yourself a new sub :)
Stay good
Right on, I'll take it as a compliment. Thanks for subbing.
Wow never even thought about Albania as somewhere to visit. Seems peaceful and quite beautiful. I'm buying your travel book now.
Cool, thanks Bill. And yeah Albania was definitely worth a visit.
Bill Cow ITS BEAUTIFUL
Beautiful greetings from Canada!!(Bosanac)
Bill Cow definetley worth the visit. greetings from kosovo! :)

I was born in Albania! I love visiting.Hope you had fun!
Albania was really interesting. :)
yes! Very cheap too compared to America!
@Eleni Mazija δεν σε βρισκω ;p
Awesome city.....I love it....
Albanians are one of the oldest people in Europe. They orginates from the anicent illyrians. And the Albanian language is a unique language and it has its own branch in the indo-European family language tree. Albanian language is very old and i do not relate to any other languages!
albania is a very special place in europe.
I always wanted to go to Albania, it's nice to see what it looks like in real life. Thanks for that. Good timing for Corfu, I hope you can give us some advice. What part of Italy are you going to? I'll visit the Naples area, can't wait.

Nice 👌 Mother Teresa is from Albania 😊❤
That's right.
"Mother Teresa was an Albanian-Indian[4] Roman Catholic nun and missionary.[7] She was born in Skopje (now the capital of Macedonia), then part of the Kosovo Vilayet of the Ottoman Empire." Looks like we're all right. And Suru, she's Indian too, I didn't know that.
Got it. :)
@@GabrielTravelerVideos
Simply Gonxhe Bojaxhiu (Mother Teresa) is 100% Albanian, known worldwide!
Zig Zag her parents died in Albania, she is Albanian from Shkup , Shkup/Skopja was Albanian city before 1913 .
Wow Gabriel, Albanie looks really cool and cheap! Its almost Thai prices over there, so cool 1!
@Aleks Kevyn well you are the only one thinking Albania is not worth it
We are in Berat at the moment and went with your recommendation of the Antigoni restaurant. A stunning setting and they haven't put their prices up since you were there.
Excellent, enjoy it! Cool town. What other countries are you visiting?
Nice video, It is worth visiting. :)
It is quiet because it's July, August and especially on weekends everybody hits the beaches as it is super hot.When summer ends, you will see this towns full of life and beaches deserted.( vice versa).
Thanks.

nice video man! keeping travelling! Berat is my hometown...left it 22 years ago...Cheers from Berlin! ;)
Gabriel one of the traverel MAN!
Love his video yes guys...
Food looks superb. Good vlog dude!
Gorgeous historical city.

Thansk for video. I'm going to Berat, at the end of the month.
Jasna Brkovic ...noooo, please!
Wow nice place! Albania is really underrated! Definitely worth for a visit! 8,50€ for fish, salad and bier! Amazing
That mountain is called Mount Tomorr and it rises to 7,927 feet or 2,416m in elevation, which is pretty high considering Berat is nearly at sea level.
Love your work showing places off the beaten track... Big fan.
Old Dutch buses seem to be sent to Albania after they are out of service in the Netherlands.
Notice the www.connexxion.nl Bus at 3:33.
hehe good spot :) yeah, everything old from Europe goes to Balkans :)
I bet my old Mercedes 240D, which I sold about 25Years ago to an Albanien is still running there. Old means not bad.
I noticed frech irisbus they used in paris lol
Did you go up to the castle? It's pretty cool as there is an old medieval town inside it and also a few old byzantine churches. When I was there entry cost less than $1.
This is lovely city
I really like your video because i'm also a backpacker, i hope i can go this place also , thank you for sharing with us
Such a charming place..thank you for the videos.blessings on your travels.
- Definitely has a European feel to it.
Edges Of Earth Albania is in the middle of Europe, u were expecting an african country? Lol

Mark Rowsey Im from Albania and this is the most realistic explanation, in those temperatures all are in the beaches or going back in their villages
nope , its about the temperatures. in the morning is fresh and usualy people go shoping (every day ,not a bunch of stuff once a week). midday pause and after 17:00 people move and start socialize and so on , and those ruins near the university are a burocratic bug , cant get rid of them easly , not enough funds too.
It's the most beautiful city Schume bukur Berat I've been here in 2011 lived n worked here💕💕🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱I lov e Berat Albania
Gabe says "deserted". I say "cozy" :-D
thats what a meant ! XHIRO , sweet long walks , meeting frends and having a beer.
Gabriel, what a beautiful video, you remember me the really Albanian cuisine...I miss this! Thank you for the video, make me feel more proud to be Albanian ;-)! Pershendetje
10:53 Lol is true is very common to see these kind of buildings in weird you can go even in remote villages and find these kind of palaces in the weirdest places
Hi Gabriel, mosque and church is next to each other in all over ex-Ottoman Turks regions.. This is unbeatable "PAX-OTTOMANA".
When I see the prices in the restaurants, i'll stop cooking in my RV. Amazing.
That is one awesome river.
Well done Gabriel !
I liked very much .
Good luck !

Gabriel I have to say something I enjoyed fully this video that's what I.am talking about much better then previous one North side thank you for your video well done man I.am pleased with that thanks
Cool, glad to hear it.
Gabriel Traveler yes absolutely glad you did that video bless you thanks again body have good Sunday cheers
Don't forget a lot of Balkan towns shut down from about 2 to 5 Siesta time and open back up after 5
Good idea using the wacko Icelandic prices as the new craziness benchmark....:-)
It is a cute city. Have you been to Lebanon Gabriel ? I highly recommend it ! I'm sure you will fall in love with Beirut :)
It is an amazing country !! I am half French half Lebanese and I live in Paris. I spend my summer holidays in Beirut every year and I enjoy it a lot !!!
Or you can simply ask the israelis to stamp on a seperate paper not included in your passport, that's what many tourists do to be able to visit Lebanon after having visited Israel.
Aleks Kevyn : get a life dude !!!
Yes there is like a seperate sheet. When you arrive to Ben Gorion airport, you can simply ask the israelis policemen not to stamp on your passport but to stamp on a seperate sheet. They are used to that, because many countries in the middle east dont let you get into their territories if you have an israeli stamp on your passport.

Nice job
I love your videos and I started traveling myself. You should do at least one mukbang video on each places you visit ....I see this type of videos while people talk while there eating gets a lot of views. Just an idea because I really love and appreciate your videos.
You frogott to visit the castle of berat.If you make a video for the castle be sure to go to the backery where my uncle works, his name is Sifi
Yeah, next time I go there I will have to visit the castle.
be sure to make a video :)
Albania is e peacfull country .with nice people .
Very true.
2018 ALBANIA 💖
ALBANIA SKENDERBEG ALEKSANDER GREAT EPIRI ILLIRYAN CULTURE
I love these Balkan videos. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully Macedonia is next. I heard Romania and Moldova are very inexpensive.
Next will be Corfu, then Italy, then Ireland, then back to California...then somewhere else. The rest of eastern Europe will have to wait for another trip.
Gabriel Traveler You need to visit Romania. Criminally underrated country. Good wifi and beautiful countryside.
Gabriel Traveler I think there is a ferry from Corfu to Brindisi. Are u planning to visit Puglia? If you go to Sicily, then I can recommend Cefalu, close to Palermo. And from there you could go to Malta!
Macedonia is very nice. And much better standard than Albania.
Macedonia is a Greek region , you mean FYROM !!!!
Berat is 2600 year old city.It's part of the Unesco now.
Shoutout to my grandma, unkle and best friends for being in this video lmao
I’m from Elbasan Albania its directly east of berat my dad which is from berat married my mom from Elbasan
God damn that university look like the white house lol

olta is not embarrassing anyone. I think you just misinterpreted on what she wanted to say, because it appears that she doesn't type very well in English.
So i will try to clarify for you:
1. The Albanian language retains many ancient Latin words which are not found in any of the modern Latin based languages of today.
2. The Albanian language also has ancient Hellenic words which are not found in the modern Greek language.
3. Many of the terms and translations of ancient toponyms and hydronyms across the balkans including Greece, are translated using ONLY the Albanian language.
👎 Mjaft shpife per gjuhen tone
Parthenon is dedicated to goddess Athena. Athena in ancient greek mythology was a virgin. Parthenon is dedicated to her. This is why it's called the house of the virgin. Also there is no ancient greek word that a modern greek speaker cannot understand. Your country has a rich history. Try to make it more famous instead of stealing other countries' history
Sir, do you ever have language problems? Wonderful. Thanks.
Yes, to some extent but you always figure it out. Lots of people speak English. Otherwise it would be much more difficult to get around. But otherwise, if interacting with someone who doesn't speak English, you figure it out one way or another....or find someone who does speak English.
Thank you. I thought it must've worked out.
loving you present trip Gab . .. the style of how you travel +tell the story, is REAL travel, 'best travel Vlogger' by a country mile!! .. Albania, is better, nicer, and definitely worth visit after this, Is now put on my list, i intend to in future, moving to a Greek island, making a Base there AND doing alot of travel, of some or all these countries. Keep Up the great work Gabriel / top notch mate .. . . love from Ireland
Great, thanks! I certainly recommend Greece. I'm going there today.
cheers for reply Gab !! .. Awesome, look forward to your travels!!
The population of Albania is just under 3 million for the entire country, so that may explain the deserted feeling 🤔
Am retarded because 2.99 million actually
The salad looks good I'm going to pass on the fish !!
Thanks Gabriel for the Balkans Tour .
Qestion for you Gabriel: Is it right that driving in Albania is very dangerous ,and streets are not maintaind properly,if you want to rent a car and drive all aroud Albania.Is it safe ?
Any recomendations ,Thanks
Heey gabriel! im a big fan of yours, i Always watch ur videos and bought ur book.
In a month i go 6 months travelling in thailand, but i have a question on what websites do u check for cheap one single hotel rooms?
Berat is a city since ancient times. He got this name from Berat in Albanian, meaning he did his father. The Father in ancient times has been god
he did his father do te thote ai beri babin e tij. Mesoni anglisht o njerez

magnificent :-)
Stayed in Berat and didn`t visit the castle and the neighbourhood inside it? If so than you missed the whole point of going to Berat.
I've seen a looooooooot of castles and old towns in the past three months of traveling. :)
I do not doubt it but Berat castle is unique and for that reason is a Unesco World Heritage site.Anyway, i enjoy watching your videos and keep up the good work.
Gabriel Traveler that castle is famous for amcient orthodox churches and icons painted by a very famous albanian painter.
I've seen too many castles myself, but Berat's castle is something else. The mini village inside it, still inhabited, the peace and quiet, and above all, the views! I actually went there a second time just to climb up on one of the towers and just sit there for two hours straight, admiring the views, relaxing, thinking,... That place is the number one reason for me to return there. I would go and live there if possible!
THIS IS MY CITY
That was a nice looking dinner 👍...how was the Tirana beer?
Pretty average tasting beer, it works. I had another Albanian beer that I liked better, but now I forget the name.
Peja maybe ? anyway tirana beer had won a international price years back but maybe it was the best for the average guy
what is this camera that u use? , are you using stick or some stabiliser ? becaus the shots looks very flowently?
Berat is the ancient Greek city of antipatria actually is a Greek city under Albanian occupation
Epiri Cham read your history albo
Epiri Cham it s not exist chameria.Despotato of Epirus(Byzantine/Greece)from el basan to Naupaktos.This is the only truth!
Half of grecce is Albanian 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱
miss it
hii Gabriel
Howdy and good day.
Gabe, Albania must be Muslim in the same way that Morocco is,that is to say Muslim Lite. I see very few dressed in Muslim gear.
Ed Denoy They are much more dressed muslims per population in Californa than Albania 😂
Muslim doesnt mean Saudi Arabia
I thought Muslim means Pakistan !
It sure is worth visiting! =) =) =)
Thanks so much ❤️🇦🇱 Please visit Shkodra👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Here's my video from Shkoder: th-cam.com/video/xq7H3HLzx5k/w-d-xo.html
NICE ALBANIA
Dude I’m from Albania
Cool.
I liked the mosque and the ortodox church in the center
Visit in Tbilisi , Georgia
It would be really cool after Balkan series to see Georgia, Azerbaijan, Iran and then go to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan. That region seems very interesting :)
That would be an awesome area to explore for sure, but it will have to wait for another trip. Flying back to California in a couple weeks.
Matīss Pudulis iran ?? No way
Iran would be amazing from what I hear. But I definitely have questions about the security situation, like as an American if you might get accused of spying, especially trying to film.
I wish Gabe all the best. Turkmenistan, Tajikistan are just few places higher than United States in official top of Most dangerous countries in the world - look it up. And these countries are in lower places than Mexico or India where Gabriel has traveled, so don't give me this "talk" about danger. Belarus is also dictatorship, but it's very peaceful (and I'm talking about tourists). My comment was about interesting places that aren't explored as much as other places and Gabriel seems like the kind of guy who likes to explore the unknown :)
you better learn how to count your money. It's about 80 cents on the 100 Lek. So when it cost 800 Leks thats about $6.40 A lot less
are you going to Corfu?
Yep, today.
cool :) i will wait for your videos they are very interesting :)
No I mean it's a maze how did you get to you're guest house never have found it
Please you're missing Macedonia from the Balkan counties. Maybe you can also go to Moldova, the forgotten country of Europe. Moldova is also one of the least visited countries on Earth
I know, I'm bummed to not see Macedonia honestly but it will have to wait for another time. I'd like to do another trip starting in Greece and going north from there up through Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, etc. all the way to Finland. Maybe next year.
Then next year don't skip Serbia too 😉
Macedonia is a Greek region , you mean FYROM !!!! I didn't expect that from you Gabriel, since you have come to Greece many times. This is rude to us my friend !
Anastasia Wall macedonia has nothing to do with greece. Macedonian was a historical region in northgreece south albania and in fyrom as you said. Macedonians and greeks were 2 different things like kari and dollari in albanian.
Well the historians and the archaeologists from all over the world have a diferent opinion.........
Gabe how the he'll did you find that guest house.?
Booking.com
Hey friend
I would like to travel
How can I come outside
