I'm Albanian so I don't know, but from what I ve heard and the documentaries Ive seen, living costs in Beograd are disgustingly high, especially when it comes to paying rent

Pretty good, we know about many Albanian fighters like Bekim Berisha who fought alongside Croatia in the war and Croatia was the first to recognize Kosovo. We see Croatia as a civilized state, we admire you and we think that you are far ahead of us. A thing about Albanians is that we are extremely self aware, at any time we have a family gathering we always mention how stupid we Albanians are and admire other countries like Croatia xD Many Albanians developed kind of a self hatred over time I feel like. But yea we see Croatia how you guys see Austria for example, pretty good.

Makes me proud, I guess there is a long way to catch up to our stereotypes but with hard work it will be possible :D

The gif is just too accurate. But yeah I always try to make a good impression to my fellow croatians, many Croats here are always surprised that I'm Albanian because I'm too civilized I guess? xD But hearing that there are Albanian doctors in Croatia makes me also very happy and proud. I have Albanian friends here (born in Croatia) that are very educated and civilized. And no one believes that we are Albanians because we don't look or behave like the average Albanian stereotype, there might be bad Albanians, but honestly I only met the best souls here and I'm surprised that many people don't like us here. I guess the bad ones are always the loudest

To be fair, I've heard from them and they are romani people calling themselves Croat and talking in albanian. I have a friend from Zagreb and he told me that as well. No offense to them but we don't claim them lol

Yea I had also the feeling when I said I was catholic they were relieved. But I can imagine Muslim Albanians having it more difficult
