The road from Montenegro to Albania took us through Gusinje, a cute town where Miel finally got a much-needed haircut and we ended up spending hours (under the baking sun) with two stray puppies 🐕. Unfortunately, they were a bit too scared to join us on our roadtrip.
The drive to Shkoder was stunning, with lots of switchbacks and mountain views ⤵️. We stayed at a beautiful camping by Lake Shkodër, partly for the scenery, mostly because we were in desperate need of laundry . We've actually visited the same lake 10 years ago, just on the Montenegrin side (where it’s called Lake Skadar) 🌅.
Our visit to Shkoder wasn’t the smoothest. We made the mistake of biking over 10 km into town in 33°C heat (on some of the worst bikes imaginable 🚲), only to spend most of our time hunting for an ATM that didn’t charge a crazy fee. Relaxing at the beach by the campsite afterwards made up for it 🏖️.Read more
