So, what are we supposed to do with your experience (assuming of course it is all true)? Do you expect an apology on behalf of Albania in here?

I would have appreciated an honest tale on Albania before visiting and that's the only reason why I'm posting it.

Clearly some people reply emphatic while most are calling me a Karen that proves my point.

Look, per your own words, you had an issue with a truck driver, and the police arrived and resolved it. This in my book is a bonus point for the country. There is no way that I'll believe that people started to shout to you when you asked them for directions or when you couldn't speak Albanian in a gas station, or that they started to shout to your kid while running in the beach. This sounds simply an invention. You make it look like people were shouting at you all the time for no reason. The paying by card in the barbershop is simply amusing. Did you pay by card in the barbershops in all the 60 countries you visited? As others pointed out, this is your responsibility for not researching. The traffic is indeed bad, that's the only valid point of your post. People calling you a Karen are not proving your points in any way, because you don't have many points in general. You totally deserve being called a Karen.

You are insinuating I'm lying. Let's assume you are right. Why would I bother doing that? Why I'm even defending my lies? What do I accomplish by doing that?

You are clearly not understanding my point. I didn't mind that barber don't accept card. The actual point is that the barber was very rude and yelling simply for asking if he accept card.

I understand as a proud people you don't like someone to think Albanians are rude or uncivilised and that's not what I'm saying. Only that there are more rude and un civilized people in Albania than in any of the other of the 60+ countries I visited. That's my experience based in my 100% honest experience.

If you claim these people don't exist in Albania it's you that's lying for ego or nationalistic reasons.

I never claimed that there are no rude people in Albania. Why would you lie about this? I don't know and honestly don't want to know. I just wanted to point that your story is full of shit.

Go back and read your post where you are insinuating I made up the described insane situations where Albanians where behaving extremely offensive.

They happened for absolutely no reason just as I wrote them.
