Albania in 9 days: the Riviera, Berat and the Accursed Mountains
Tirana → Shkodër → Theth → Berat → Albanian Riviera
The last cheap corner of the Mediterranean, and it will not stay that way: Ottoman towns of stacked white windows, a ferry up a fjord-like lake into the Accursed Mountains, and a coast of clear water and empty coves — with the honest version of the driving, the bunkers, and why going in June or September matters.
