I love your blog, and I am only just diving into your posts! I was wondering if you had a recommendation for a city in Albania, that has either good local transport… I am considering visiting Albania for a month or two and wanted to stay in a city where I don’t necessarily need a car. Thank you so much!

Can we, as EU citizens (Im Belgian, my GF is Spanish) stay for long term without visa ? We want to stay a year (or more)
Do you have a link to a website to find a house to rent ?

Have a wonderful day !!! Paloma & Philip

I’ve been planning to give Saranda a try as a summer base, hopefully this year. Where would you suggest is the best place to start looking online for accommodation on a not-so-generous budget, even a flat share?
Thanks and regards! Great work!

Hey Tobias! Thank you for the comment, I am glad you found it interesting! You can apply for a 1 or 2-year residency visa. There are a lot of different options and it’s sometimes hard to understand exactly what you need. I would allow at least 2-3 months gathering all the documents you need because everything here takes time. You can find more info here: https://e-albania.al/eAlbaniaServices/UseService.aspx?service_code=9759 They have only just introduced an online visa application so expect lots of bugs and crashes!

Thank you for this intersting article and thanks for sharing your experience. I am interested to stay in Albania a little longer than just the 90 days I would be granted as a tourist. You memtioned that you already lived there the last 2 years and have now a permanent residency. How does that work?

Albania is a safe country. Unfortunately, Albania suffers from many misconceptions that are mostly bad. I have an article covering this exact topic which will be live next week so look out for that <3

I live in France and I know an Albanian family with 3 kids here. What could I buy them in terms of specialty Albanian food that they would love to have but that might be too expensive for them to buy here? Any particular grains or beans? I can find international stuff in the health food store. They’re too shy to tell me when I ask. I’ve checked the internet, but I thought you might have a good idea! Albania is such a beautiful country! I was there for a short time. Love the painted buildings in Tirana.
