Sheila's Guide to Albania by Sheila Simkin (English) Paperback Book

Description: Sheila's Guide to Albania by Sheila Simkin Albania is a European country that is slowly emerging from 50 years of isolation and most travelers dont even know where Albania is! Cut off from the outside world because of invasion, occupation, a government that used terror, nationalism and isolation to retain power, and civil unrest, why would anyone even want to visit Albania? Because... - Albania has the UNESCO listed city of Gjirokastra; Albania has historical and ancient towns of Berat, Kruja and Shkodra, castles and archaeological sites; - Albania lies close to Greece and Italy, has a balmy Mediterranean climate, sandy beaches; and - Albania has high, rugged mountains with classic passes, and alpine villages. It seems like some people work their entire life to take an Exotic Vacation, when in reality, such a trip can be had for less than taking the family to DisneyWorld; especially in Albania, considered inexpensive by European and American standards (if not downright cheap). Let Travels With Sheila teach you how to Travel the World on a Budget, share exotic locations known only to locals, and most importantly, ease your fears about languages, currencies, personal safety and staying healthy. HERES SOME OF THE INFORMATION YOULL FIND INSIDE... - Facts to Help Plan Your Albania Vacation. - What to See and Do in South and North Albania. - How to Save Big Money! - The Most Important Albanian Sights. Travels With Sheila tells it like it is with the good and bad, personalized, up-to-date information, and photographs you need to make the most of your trip to Albania. Learn from her experience and speed through this wonderful country by following her travel tips. Please visit my travelswithsheila channel on YouTube.com to watch the many videos. Wouldnt you like to visit friendly, less-visited and inexpensive Albania? FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Sheila Simkin, a native Chicagoan, has been traveling the world since 1960. The travel bug first hit on her honeymoon in Miami. Fidel Castro had just taken over Cuba and lured by rock-bottom prices, Sheila sweet-talked her ex-husband into abandoning Miami for Cuba. That marked the beginning of her lifetime travel passion and addiction. There are very few countries that are not on her to-see list no matter how remote and/or difficult they may be with many, "What was I thinking of" moments in hindsight. The U.S. State Department recognizes 193 independent countries and she has visited over 150 in over 40 years of travel (but...whos counting). Touring, hiking, trekking, rafting, snowshoeing, skiing, volunteering on archaeological digs, family trips and, she must admit, occasionally sitting on a beach and compulsively shopping. Her goal is to encourage you to take the big step and travel to more exotic, remote destinations with tips, anecdotes and reassurance that, yes, you will come back alive. Visit her "travelswithsheila" channel on YouTube to watch over 1,400 videos filmed around the world and covering the gamut from taking a cruise to camping in Egypts desert, food (fried tarantulas, anyone?), sights and even instructions on how to navigate subways in Paris and Beijing. All Travels With Sheila Guides will tell you the truth, and only the whole truth, about each country and whether sights are a hit, or a miss. Follow Sheilas advice to avoid making mistakes she learned the hard way. For example, not knowing that an important piece of equipment when camping or trekking is...an AIR MATTRESS? A never to be forgotten experience spent in a sleeping bag on the cold, hard ground of Nepal. And what kind of crazy idiot goes trekking in Siberia and gets lost? Really...lost in Siberia? Only Sheila. Happy traveling!
