When people see pictures of this place they instantly think of the Maldives! But lucky for us, it’s a lot closer to home (if you live in Europe that is 😅) Ksamil is a small village on the Albanian Riviera. It has been growing in popularity over the last few years and for very good reason. The beaches are absolutely amazing, the food is delicious and you can travel here on a really tight budget. We were drinking pints of beer for £1.50 🍻 Eating delicious seafood for less than £10 🦐 and our two bedroom apartment with sea view was less than £35 per night! I’ll be posting more about our trip in the coming days.
Save this for your bucket list 🤩🌴 We have heard so many great things about Ksamil and have been wanting to check it out for months. We have a free week and nowhere to be, so off we go! I’ll be posting more about this fantastic destination over the coming weeks 😍 #ksamilalbania #ksamil #albania🇦🇱
