The guesthouse we are staying at is a fairytale built on the slope of a mountain, built by the family that has owned the land for generations. Everything is made by hand, from the wooden teacups to the furniture not to mention the entire house.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/experiencealbania.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Lumi-i-shales-shala-river-Experience-Albania.jpg” title_text=”Lumi-i-shales-shala-river-Experience-Albania” show_in_lightbox=”on” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.6.1″ custom_margin=”|-5%||-10%|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”0%|0%||0%” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_vertical=”1px”]

For dinner, we enjoy delicious grilled trout caught upstream. The sallad and vegetables grow in the sloping garden, and the cheese comes from a neighbouring village, taking a day to deliver by foot. After nightfall, we gather around an open fire, share stories and songs, and toast marshmallows. We are served mountain tea with honey from the family’s bees.<\/span><\/p>\n
