Part 8/9:

While it was a unique experience, we left Durres with mixed feelings. While the friendliness of the people made our stay enjoyable, the city's lack of refinement and infrastructure left us wanting more. We’d recommend visiting Durres as a short trip, but perhaps not for an extended stay of a month unless you are deeply invested in exploring more areas of Albania.

Conclusion

Our adventure in Durres highlighted both the charm and challenges of this emerging destination. While we appreciated the warm hospitality and the opportunity to experience a unique culture, we found areas for improvement, particularly in cleanliness and infrastructure.
