Kosovo the Youngest country in Europe

KOSOVO THE YOUNGEST COUNTRY IN EUROPE 

KOSOVO THE YOUNGEST COUNTRY IN EUROPE 

The Republic of Kosovo is a Balkan country in Southeastern Europe, and its capital is Pristina (Prishtina). It shares its borders with four countries; Serbia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, and Albania. Kosovo is the smallest country in the Balkans and also the second poorest country in Europe. However, it is one of, if not the cheapest, of all European countries. Its population comprises 93% Muslim ethnic Albanians, 6% Eastern Orthodox Serbians, and 1% Bosniaks, Gorans, Turks, and Roma. Maybe that is why the Albanian flag is most prominent on display throughout the city. Although not recognized as an independent state by all nations, it does not change the fact that Kosovo the youngest country in Europe is an independent country. It is a low-keyed, off-the-beaten-track tourist destination, and a golden find for the adventurous and budget traveller.

WHY NOT VISIT CHISINAU MOLDOVA!?

Why not visit Chisinau Moldova!?  This is my question to many.  I have been asked the same rather weird question by many people, why are you going to Moldova or where is it?  In transiting through another European country, the Immigration Officer said to me “what’s in Moldova why are you going there?” His female colleague also agreed with his sentiments, then she said to be sure to try the Bucuria (chocolate candies).  I quickly jotted down the name, because, for this recommendation from another country, I thought…it must be good, the male officer also concurred.

TWO MOST WARM-HEARTED COUNTRIES VISITED

A country with riches but unfriendly, impolite people is a huge turn-off. For me what makes a country beautiful and great is its people. It helps if it also has yummy ice cream and tasty fish lol (that’s just me). Wealth, beautiful sceneries and aesthetically appealing are all nice, however, if your people are unfriendly, impolite and or racial, then there is no connection or yearning to ever return or to even talk much about it. I will share with you the two most warm-hearted countries I have ever visited.
