Letter from Albania: Enver Hoxha's legacy, and the question of tourism {Gadling}
Jun 26th 2008 3:22PM Marsel seems upset by Jeffrey's observations. Is he Albanian? Live there, or in New Jersey? Jeffrey is just telling us what to expect when we spend our vacation $$ in Albania. I guess we won't be needing reservations at the resorts.
Letter from Albania: Into one of Europe's last dark corners {Gadling}
Jun 25th 2008 11:34PM I did not know that Albania still had Albanians. I thought they all moved to Lincoln Park, and nearby in New Jersey. Have you used a valet service lately? Eaten a really great "Italian"meal? Had home repairs?All Albanians. Some are good, kind, hard working people;some will cheat you blind. I guess that is like people everywhere. Too bad they can't work faster to rebuild their home country. It once was a beautiful place, and may be again some day. Pirro, you may be right both with 25 years and 25 centuries. Albania is the gateway to Europe in the north and the "Ottoman Empire" in the south. I am sorry to say that some of your Albanian compatriots who have come to America in the middle of the night have given the wrong impression to Americans. I find most of them did not come here to become a part of the American Dream-melting pot, but to start outposts of New-Albania. Don't let your daughter date an Albanian man;his father will put the curse of the ages on her and her family just because she is not Albanian. Maybe when they buy enough diamonds with American dollars they will go home to a new and better Albania.
