North Macedonia / Albania

Ohrid, North Macedonia, was one of our favorite places we visited in Europe! We were here a little over a week and loved all the swans on the lake, and the leaves starting to change colors on the mountainside. The lake is crystal clear and was so nice to jump in! We also ate dürüm from the same spot almost every day! Plus our favorite pizza place across the street from our Airbnb. Next, we stayed a week in Shkodër, Albania, and two days in Tirana. Not our top place, but we had so much fun celebrating my birthday there, exploring Rozafa Castle, and jumping in the lake. We were bused out after!
