00:30Assalam-o-Alaikum and good morning everyone from Thet National Park, Albania.

00:45When I reached here yesterday, it was almost 9 or 9.30am.

00:48And the last 4 hours of my ride, 16-17 km off-road, it was literally humiliating for me.

00:56And I don't know how I managed to reach here.

00:58It's just that I reached here in a hurry.

01:01But I was lucky that I found a nice guest house right next to the road.

01:05As soon as I reached here, I found this guest house.

01:07I didn't have to go back and forth.

01:09It's a nice guest house. I got it for almost 20 Euros.

01:12Even with dinner.

01:13Today's plan is that I have to go back on the same road that I took.

01:17Which means that I have to go down the hill and then up the hill again.

01:20And it's 15 km off-road again.

01:23So I'm literally scared that I don't know how I will manage these 15 km today.

01:28Because yesterday, it was all slippery.

01:31There are a lot of loose rocks and the road is terrible.

01:34I didn't even cover these 15 km for 2.5 hours.

01:38So today's plan is that I will go back on the same road towards Skadar.

01:42Which is the main city of Skadar.

01:45And then I will decide if I have time, I will continue ahead.

01:49Komani is a small village.

01:51I have to start my day from there.

01:53So I will go there.

01:55It's gonna be a 7 to 8 hour ride.

01:58I will try to record more today.

02:03I couldn't record anything in the rain yesterday.

02:06And my hands were so cold.

02:08The weather forecast says that it will start raining in the second half of the day.

02:11So I am trying to leave before that.

02:14I have had my breakfast here.

02:16They have given me some simple bread and such things.

02:19But thank God I have got this too.

02:21Let's start the ride and leave from here.

02:24Bismillah... In the name of Allah

02:26Assalam Alekum

02:32Sometimes, there are days when you think that you have to go from point A to point B safely.

02:38So today is the day when I am literally scared.

02:43This is the 15 km off road.

02:46I hope it goes well.

02:48This is the village.

02:50The road is better here.

02:52It's not that bad.

02:54It's a total valley type, so it's straight.

02:56There is no problem here.

02:58But as soon as I go ahead, I have to climb that mountain.

03:00There will be a problem with my luggage.

03:03But hopefully, the weather will be better today.

03:05So there won't be much of a problem.

03:13There is a valley down there.

03:28Hopefully, the weather clears up on the way.

03:32Then I will take breaks.

03:35Oh God!

03:47I should cover this.

03:49I can't survive without it.

03:51I have my own jacket.

03:53But it has all my documents.

03:55The weather has changed in minutes.

03:58It was predicted that it will rain after 2 pm.

04:01I was supposed to leave early in the morning.

04:08It's muddy here.

04:10Bikes are pulling me to the other side.

04:13That's what I was trying to avoid.

04:15I didn't want to leave on time.

04:17Before the rain.

04:19But the weather was waiting for me.

04:22It was telling me that it's going to rain as soon as I leave.

04:25It wasn't raining in the morning.

04:27The sun was out.

04:29It's going to start as soon as I leave.

04:31Oh God!

04:33I hope I don't slip.

04:38If I drop my bike here,

04:41I will have to unload my luggage.

04:43I can't even pick it up without it.

05:00I have completed the 8 km off road section.

05:04I told you that it's a total of 15 km.

05:06So 7 km is still left.

05:08The good thing is that I haven't dropped my bike even once.

05:11My heart was pounding from inside.

05:13I have dropped my bike only a couple of times.

05:16But it's better to go up from here.

05:19When I was coming down last night,

05:21it was much more slippery.

05:23Because it rained continuously for the last 4 hours.

05:25Then it stopped.

05:27It's been a while since it stopped.

05:29So I decided to click some pictures.

05:31And then we will continue our journey.

05:34The views were a little open.

05:36And as you can see,

05:38it's quite beautiful behind me.

05:40I am enjoying it.

05:42I will try to complete the journey without falling.

05:58Asphalt starts from the cars parked in front.

06:02Check out this section.

06:04God bless you.

06:06There are so many big roads here.

06:09Rangili must be cursing me from inside.

06:11She must be asking me where I have brought her.

06:17How are you?

06:19Good?

06:21It's a terrible day.

06:23How are you?

06:25Good?

06:27It's a terrible road.

06:29Terrible?

06:31Better or same?

06:33It depends.

06:35This section is a little bad.

06:37But then...

06:39It's hard to say.

06:41Some sections are okay. Some are bad.

06:47This one is perfect.

06:49This one, I don't know.

06:51We did it on 310.

07:01We are not far now.

07:03We have finally reached the asphalt.

07:08I am feeling so happy from inside.

07:11I never thought I would be so happy to see the asphalt.

07:15So...

07:17Here it is.

07:19Asphalt.

07:21We made it.

07:23We made it Rangili.

07:25Well done.

07:29We fell down without any issues.

07:32It's a good thing.

07:35From here on, it's gonna be peaceful.

07:37At least the asphalt section.

07:39And I can go at a speed of 40-50 kmph.

07:43So...

07:45We will reach Skadar now.

07:47It's almost 1.07 pm now.

07:51I don't know if it's Romania's time or not.

07:54I am in Romania.

07:56Where am I? In Albania.

07:58I think Albania and Germany have the same time.

08:00It's gonna take us 1.5 hours to reach Skadar.

08:13You must be thinking that only in Pakistan, electricity is available.

08:17But it's available here as well.

08:19I took a short break to have a cup of coffee.

08:21It was raining heavily.

08:23So I decided to take a break.

08:25They have electricity here.

08:27He is...

08:29What's your name?

08:31Ged.

08:33He is making me a Turkish coffee.

08:43Albania's currency is Lek.

08:45And a lot of people here still accept Euros.

08:48Like I was getting petrol yesterday.

08:50He took Euros from me.

08:52I have paid less than 1 Euro for coffee and croissant in this village.

08:56Albania is quite cheap overall.

09:05Albania has a population of 3 million.

09:08The Ottoman Empire has been here for a long time.

09:11Most people are still Muslims.

09:13But the state doesn't interfere in your religion.

09:16It's a secular country.

09:18You can change your religion as you wish.

09:21The state has nothing to do with it.

09:23Besides that, the Italian influence is quite strong here.

09:27Because when the Ottomans left here,

09:29when they were defeated in Europe,

09:32the rulers here turned to communism.

09:35So this was a communist country till 1991.

09:38A lot of people from Albania shifted to Italy.

09:41Migrants.

09:43And they used to watch a lot of Italian TV here.

09:46Because Italy is just south of here.

09:48So they know Italian as well.

09:50If I talk to someone in the village,

09:52he will ask me if I know Italian.

09:54But I don't know Albanian.

09:56Because Albanian is their main language.

09:58And the second language is Italian.

10:00I was talking to the guy who made me this coffee.

10:03He said that almost every family has a relative in Italy.

10:08That's why a lot of people here know Italian.

10:28Unfortunately, this off-road section has injured my bike.

10:32The first injury was a broken bag.

10:35The bike had fallen down once.

10:38So it's fine now.

10:40But I had put some bungee cords on it.

10:43It will be fine.

10:45The main issue was the chain cleaner.

10:48The pipe that supplies the oil,

10:51there was a stone on it.

10:53And the pipe was cut.

10:55Now I have to find a BMW guy.

10:57Or a mechanic who can check the bike.

11:00And also find a pipe for the oil cleaner.

11:03Let's see if I can get it from here.

11:05Because I have the oil.

11:07And I don't want to buy any extra oil.

11:09I have already bought one.

11:11And I have already spent 120-130 Euros on it.

11:13I just checked the weather here.

11:15And unfortunately, there is an 80% chance of rain here.

11:18My plan was to go to Lake Komani in the mountain region.

11:23And then enter Kosovo from there.

11:25I don't know if Kosovo's border is open or not.

11:28But I do know about North Macedonia.

11:30Their border is closed.

11:32And they haven't given a date as yet.

11:36So I am thinking of riding along the Balbanian coast to Tirana.

11:41And if I can find a nice camping spot near the beach, I will do it.

11:45Otherwise, we will go to the city and find a hotel.

12:02Garden is neglected but the door is open.

12:08You can come.

12:13Turn the light on, sit with me.

12:20So we have entered Tirana.

12:23And now we have to find our hotel.

12:26I have booked a hotel here last night.

12:28Because I was getting a very cheap hotel.

12:31I didn't want to camp here for no reason.

12:33And that includes breakfast.

12:35So I am getting a hotel here for a cheaper price than my breakfast and camping.

12:40So I am going to stay in a 3 star hotel.

12:44Let's go and check out the quality of that 3 star hotel.

13:01So this is our hotel.

13:09And this is the parking.

13:13Let's park here.

13:19Hello.

13:20I have a reservation.

13:22Abrar Hassan.

13:24I have reached the hotel.

13:26And the best part is that I have paid only Rs 20.

13:29It's an amazing room.

13:31Out of all the hotels I have stayed in, this is the best one.

13:36I am saying this for the money.

13:38The return you are getting for paying only Rs 20 is amazing.

13:43It's not exactly in the center.

13:45It's a little out of the center.

13:47And you can get a good view from here.

13:49Let's take some rest now.

13:51Then I will go for lunch.

13:53I don't know if I should go to the town center or the nearby restaurants.

13:55So let's take some rest.

13:59Let's go.

14:16The majority of Albanians are Muslims.

14:18So it's relatively easy to get Halal food here.

14:20But keep in mind that this is a secular country.

14:24They must be selling pork as well.

14:26Alcohol is very important here.

14:30Whether you are a Muslim or a non-Muslim.

14:32If you go to a restaurant and ask,

14:34they will tell you if you can get Halal food here or not.

14:37The restaurant I went to,

14:39they told me that they are Muslims.

14:41But we don't just eat pork.

14:45But we do sell it.

14:47This was my second day in Albania.

14:49I hope you liked my vlog.

14:54See you in the next one. Allah Hafiz.
