Wrapping up, living the rich life

Oh, I was missing this. Vacations. One full week in a foreign country, wandering around without schedules or fixed plans. As all good things, it's coming to an end. And in my last day, back to Tirana, decided to pamper myself a little bit. Not planning things in advance also comes with its downfalls, such as higher prices in this case, which meant budgeting a little bid on the accomodations for the week. So in my last night... luxury it was! ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmRLGdnrrC1uMDggs3YwdgPMnb2QkeLNsQs4Bmeki4UzUV/1753005525768.jpg) I was able to find a pretty decent price in a fantastic hotel, that has a sky bar on the 18th floor, with 360° views over the city. How cool is that? ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmYugV2yFkFHMpkw96rZynER39qgD2fanZBx8MJJgWmAQf/1753005658621.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNwZLBcJqBG2QrgzMLaAxEpdLsr92z5V3PovfUs1BHZVX/1753005767025.jpg) The view really was as one would expect: awesome. Seeing the city from above at the golden hour was bliss. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZaxXkecX85Lzhpw3oU8NJ8q7xXtLXfeMdKrRqbvyTpqu/1753005866632.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmWbyyy9qtybv7ffXrrws6jmXRT2ksUQrnhB8UKeN7frfq/1753005913737.jpg) More than what I usually spend per night when traveling? For sure. Worth it? F%@k yeah! A lovely room, a confy bed, a gorgeous view, and a continental breakfast again with a wonderful city view the next morning. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNq22cuSQReCuuHuLPZdHLEDZUpm19Q1915PoFCCGzRTG/1753006114892.jpg) Money doesn't buy happiness... but it doesn't hurt it either, does it? 😁 And to continue to immerse in the millionaire's life, nothing like enjoying the perks of having a card that gives some access to the VIP lounges at the airport... and enjoy the last hours in the city! ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmYoesKSCZsTtMFoXwk8dDKkVG3oKV5QQVHeusFKw3UKWP/1753006366775.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmXXVepsEdAhStxgpKjcjodv6RaAbgxsLoahNTPVcXL3Xu/1753006390941.jpg) Back to day to day reality in a few hours, to the plain old non-millionaire me. But going back with great memories, and fortunately, the things that give me more pleasure, such as contemplating all the natural beauties the country has, are free. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmViRSyZuDyz3YCFbUriTsqxzyzN9fA6tAsuacX8bT2sij/1753006645678.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmSkJ6n4guLEAGQCySrCfVxZ1j7SWqbV3ZsUJgSpDpTVbB/1753006729594.jpg) There's still so much left to explore. I've passed through natural parks with apparently great hiking trails, but the limited time and the crazy heat didn't made them a viable alternative this time. But it's definitely a country that deserves another visit! ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmajFkhZurTRU7pf4zGVEEgw3JsCzYwEndELyRFcPGPrSi/1753007496996.jpg) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTa8WJrbnqm5UgMY91LZv1V32p5L4a9aZkYR6QLc5fKaF/1753008022211.jpg) Proper posts will be done (hopefully) about some of the highlights of the country, and there are plenty of them. For now... off to the airplane! *Faleminderit*, Albânia; hope to see you again sometime!
