Discovering The Best of BERAT 🇦🇱 Backpacking Albania Travel Vlog

The Backpacking Albania series continues in the little town of Berat! Karen and I stayed at Berat Backpackers. We took a free walking tour, drank far to much wine at Çobo Winery and had the most wonderful dinner at Homemade Food Lili!

ABOUT ME🙋🏻‍♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these KZread videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

    Berat is my favorite city to. Its name is "The City of One-on-One Windows" because the houses are built one on top of another, and many people make a mistake when they say "The City of 1001 Windows". Have a nice trip 🍀🍀🍀🍀🙏🙏🙏🙏
