Steeped in history and located between stunning mountains, shimmering lakes and gorgeous parks, North Macedonia quickly became one of my favorite places in the Balkans. North Macedonia is a deeply historic region with evidence of civilization flourishing here as early as 7000 BC. Part Balkan, part Mediterranean and rich in Greek, Roman and Ottoman heritage, […]
Isolated and shut off from the world for so long, Albania emerged from communist rule in 1991 and has been slowly trying to catch up to modernity…very slowly.
