Is learning another language necessary in a new technological era?
As an Albanian, I come from a small country whose language, though very unique, is not spoken anywhere else. So for an Albanian it is very logical and advantageous to learn other languages so as to communicate freely and easily with other people in a language we both understand. Moreover, personally I have realized that [...]
Ready for the next stage in my life!
These past two months (November & December) have been quite overloaded for me. I had to joggle three things at the same time and neither of them compared to a normal work load. First, the Albanian online bookstore had me going the whole day as we were processing about three times as many order as [...]
Tirana Jazz Radio online
Who said Albanians don’t have class and a taste for fine things!! For me, the Tirana Jazz Radio is a fine proof of just that fact. I was so enthused to find out about this little known online radio, which broadcasts such music all day long. It is great for listening to while working in [...]
Why You Must Visit Albania by Eliza Dushku
It was truly fascinating and interesting to read Eliza Dushku’s (actress) perspective on her visit and discovery of being an Albanian. Below is an excerpt from the article on Huffington Post. “Looking back at the recent weeks we’ve spent there, I feel foolish for anticipating I could understand Albania in less than a life time, [...]

Why I think that our political system needs maintenance!
The other day I went to get my car’s electronic system checked by a technician. There were some errors appearing on the dashboard that needed to get fixed. In fact those errors were nothing new to me. The car’s electronic system is such that every so many hundred kilometers it requires you to do a [...]
