Links to Reports of Distinction
[blue]Greetings everyone,
I've started this new thread to provide a centralized location to catalog the Forum's best travel reports. Here's the idea:
If you have written one or several detailed travel reports, or if you know of such reports, then please post the [b]link[/b] here.
You may also include a short summary of the nature of the report.
A [red][u][b]sample report[/b][/u][/red] would be something like this:
============================================[/blue]
Here's a great series of reports by Young & Restless on his trip to Rio in January of 2005.
[post]334449[/post]
[post]334448[/post]
[post]334447[/post]
[blue]============================================
You can copy and paste the link into a report, or you can do it the easy way and use the [post] tags, which you would format like this:
[post]Post ID number here[/post]
You can identify the Post ID by moving your mouse pointer over the "Quote" button and reading the Post ID number in the Status Bar at the bottom of your browser window. It's the last number at the end of the link text, just after the letters "p=".
[red]Please note: In order for this thread to be effective, it cannot turn into a discussion forum. I don't want to have to be so tough about this, but any reports that do not include a link to another report will be deleted.[/red]
Thanks,
Jackson[/blue]
Ok, some history and economics. Then, go somewhere else!

is really albania a part of europe.

its probably the least european part of europe, since it was controlled by turkey for +400 years up until just before wwi in 1912.
a thrid of the population is **** 15, with a birthrate double that of the rest of europe. maybe that will be good for mongering soon, when they reach 18 anyway, if they don't cut your throat in the process.
but with all the kosovo refugees there, its the poorest country on the continent, even worse than moldova. for east-west smuggling transit, cigarettes and whiskey going east and narcotics going west, the mafia is the largest employer, so with crime and corruption being the number one business, they are always looking for new opportunities like dumb foreigners wandering around the country. there would be little other reason for you to be doing so, if you weren't there visiting relatives or for business, since it is a real shit hole, (think west virginia and a lot of turkish [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord128][CodeWord128][/url]), so you would attract the wrong attention outside of tirana.
What is Mr. Bez Bazarra's problem?
This gentleman has problems with being Turkish? I read by different means that he has a joy in criticising being Turkish or having Turkish backgrounds. I do not expect anything, I do not care what other people think of my country, but it is unnecessary to say it repeatedly for no obvious reason.
