About Me

*** Summer 2017:

WE WON'T BE ABLE TO HOST AT OUR HOME IN VLORA. PLEASE DON'T ASK US TO.
If you'd like to meet us to have a nice chat you can come to our coffee shop. Shira is there every morning and evening.

ABOUT ME

We are an ISRAELI couple living in Albania almost 10 years now. We have an Israeli coffee shop and Shira makes all the tasty cakes and desserts. Assaf is the biologist of an Israeli-Albanian fish farm in the Bay, not far from the city. Assaf's work is the reason why are we here! We love hanging out, laugh, eat (and there is great food in Albania!) and have fun in general.
