Hello!

I have been home for more than 2 weeks now. I’ve been getting a lot of rest and seeing friends and family. I was in Albania the last month of the race. We worked at a camp in Lezhe called Lightforce. It was a relaxing month. There were no campers, due to a cancelation, so we worked around the camp. We worked in the morning and then we would have the afternoons off. We did a lot of manual labor improving the camp such as pulling up massive trees, digging gravel, and moving pigs! It was perfect for month 11 because we were all worn out and preparing for home. It was also great for us to really enjoy spending time with each other, before our final goodbyes. Albania is such small country so on our off days it was no problem to travel to other countries and see the beauty of Albania! Albania has a Mediterranean feel but it looks like a country recovering from communism like the other eastern european countries I’ve been to on the race.

Enjoy the pictures!

I found them fascinating they were so big! 6&7) Trimming the palm trees 8) Sunset worship night on the beach after my squad mate was baptised! 9&10) Southern Albanian beaches are beautiful! 11) Final debrief banquet night in Tirana, Albania. 12) Final goodbyes at the airport!
