We have an Albanian couple on the course that I am helping with at the moment, and I so enjoy being around them and visit with them. They are very different from I thought they would be.

Well, the little I know about Albania is thanks to Mother Teresa, as she was from there. When she was a child there was a very well defined high society in place, but the political situation was turbulent to say the least. If I am recalling correctly, her father was assassinated/murdered as he was a well-connected businessman with political interests.

After she left the country, whatever new government came into power would not allow her mother or her sister to visit her.

Albania only have 4 South Africans there. One with OM (Operation Mobilization), myself with YWAM (Youth With A Mission) and then a couple working with the UNDP (United Nations Development Program).
There is also a guy from Namibia there and a Dutchman than has lived in Cape Town for 13 years, so considers himself to be south african as well.

Another person from YWAM!!!


You are the second one I know of!


Please keep us informed, we seem to live such privilged lives that we tend to forget about the rest of the world, our minds are so focussed on Africa and the Middle East.
