Introduction to the Blog

To get this blog kicked off properly, we would like to first express our gratitude to our employers at the Instituti I Lidershipit and other coordinators for this opportunity. Since arriving in Tirana, many people have asked us why we chose to come to Albania. True, it isn’t the first place most people think of when they plan vacations to European destinations. Many would choose Paris or Prague, London or Lisbon but it was Tirana that offered an amazing once in a lifetime opportunity.
Albania is a country with a high potential for greatness. With a rich history of strength through adversity, Albanians are no strangers to rebounding from less than favorable circumstances and is on the rise again. After great regional turmoil more than a decade ago, Albania’s economy is at the beginning of a growth spurt. The infrastructure has made the country nearly unrecognizable from its past. And the political structure is progressing as the people become more involved in the political process. With such potential, why would a person not desire to live and work in Albania?
In this blog, we invite you to take a seat in our virtual car as we experience the beauty of Albania for the very first time. Our hope is that you, as the reader and our virtual passenger, will see a side of Albania that you have never expected and gain a perspective of positivity and progression of this amazing nation.
