Learn to read Hi Mr. "no email given". Thanks for your feedback. First of all I feel that if you're going to go and fully abuse me I ask that you do it properly. "Fuck off. How in the hell can your white ass say that the Indo Fijians treat the Fijians like slaves. When it’s the Indo Fijians that don't have the same rights as the Fijian's do". What I commented on was what I witnessed first hand before and after my cruise. I guess the particular Indo-Fijians I met and dealt with weren't the nicest people and seemed to be running many busniesses quite strictly while treating their Fijian employees badly. I had also heard about other things such as these going on from other locals and regular visitors. Certainly, I didn't go into any non tourist area as I was young at the time and it was my first trip abroad. I'll admitt I'm not well versed in Fijian history nor in Fijian demographics so perhaps my comments could have been worded better. It could be true that Fijian's were nice because of my being a tourist but I guess the Indo-Fijian's didn't feel they needed to be nice to us. In any case I won't pretend to be an expert but I stand by my first hand experience while knowing that my blanket comment of all Indo-Fijians certainly may have been unfair.
H Miracle Review With excellent description in you articles, I want to thanks for your blog providing a large amount of knowledge and enlightenment..H Miracle Review
You Missed Out! Your blog was quite interesting, you were quite on the spot on several occasions. The "wobbling head" comments cracked me up, and the description of how the bus station is so disorganized and yet it worked couldn't have been any trued. That is Albania my friend, no one knows how, but things almost always work.
But I have to say that you missed out on a lot of things. From the North to the South there are a lot of places that are worth seeing, and that probably would have amazed you even more than Gjirokastra. The old-fashioned and yet fascinating life-style of the northern towns of Dibra (Shkodra is actually quite civilized compared to what I am talking about), the 7 Lakes of Lura to the great beaches and old architecture of southern Albanian cities like Vlora and Saranda.
I guess you should have done some more research before venturing into such a small country with so much to offer.
PS: the guy in Shkodra's bus-drive did not rip you off, unfortunately. You gave him 5 euros, which at the time was probably equivalent of 800lek, and gave back to you 600lek, meaning that your bus-drive was worth only 100 lek/person, half of the usual fare... there goes Albanian hospitality, which you also forgot to mention.
Not paradise I am an avid traveller - and seen many corbers of the world / heard from friends how friendly Thai people were but was not told how easily you can cheated for your money- happened on entering Grand Palace in Bangkok and happened also in Phuket - cheated of 700 baht when getting gasoline and tank was never filled - patong is sleazy, police not helpful and every smile means cash - will not return
Fuck off How in the hell can your white ass say that the Indo Fijians treat the Fijians like slaves. When it’s the Indo Fijians that don't have the same rights as the Fijian's do. You just came to visit, you have not lived here nor have you seen what has happen here in the Islands of Fiji. Did you ever think that they are nice to you, because you went to the places where all the tourist goes? Come and see how things are done in the villages and then write your stupid comments. I bet my life that you wouldn’t last one hour. Then you’ll know how nice they are. I am not racist! I have family on both sides. You should see both sides of the views or actually go to places where tourists don’t go, if you are going to make such strong comments on the internet.
shkodra ime Nje parajse hyjnore eshte vendlindja ime,Shkodra.Eshte nje nga vendet me te bukura te Ballkanit.Shkodra gjithmone do te jete ''Mbreteresha e Natyres''.E dua Shkodren dhe gjithmone do te jem krenare per te. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
