me too, i guess i was thinking Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky like after WW3, although I've seen more brutal areas of Pristina on Flickr from an old SSC thread.

Koolmaudit,

I just return from a few month stint doing work in northern Albania - specifically in Valbona Valley - you should really cross the border and visit the areas around Bajram Curri, Thethi etc in Albania. Kosovo has it rough financially, but crossing into Albania feels like officially leaving the 1st world. Very localized economy, also very friendly (not surprising since Kosovo is largely Albanian).

I spent a fair amount of time in Kosovo - Pristina, Prizren, Sharri Mountains - and loved it, mainly because the people are so friendly. And yeah, beer sure is cheap! Gjakova (sp?) in the south was the biggest surprise - very cool ottoman district.

Macedonia is also a short bus ride away and worth the visit. The recent history in the area is fascinating, but of course disturbing. If you need specific tips let me know, and have fun!

Oh yeah, go to TIRANA. One of the most interesting places I've been.

50% of my posse (50% is me) is on board for a late DEC early JAN incursion into Kosovo and probably a couple of days of just like projectile vomiting all over London.

I heard from a friend, that whatever else you do (whatever that may or may not entail), do NOT visit the zoo in Skopje, Macedonia, unless you are into having disturbing days run into terrible dreams. Definitely DONT visit the zoo in Skopje on shrooms..
