About this Episode
The next stop on my recent European trip was the little-discussed but incredibly interesting country of Kosovo. I had the pleasure of spending a few days with a super cool guide named Ilir in the capital of Pristina, who taught me about this small Balkan country.
In today’s conversation with Ilir, you’ll learn what you need to know about Kosovo and what makes it a welcoming place for expats and tourists alike, including its history, culture, lifestyle, and more. Enjoy!
TODAY’S CONVERSATION ABOUT KOSOVO:
- Uncover Kosovo's fascinating history and culture, which goes much further back than its more recent, war-torn past.

- What about safety? While travel always has its risks, find out why Kosovo is a particularly safe place to visit.
- How welcoming is Kosovo to foreigners? Hear Ilir’s thoughts on whether Kosovo could be a good place for expats.
- Longtime listeners know I’m not digging into a new country without talking about the food - and Kosovo has a plethora of tasty options.
- Find out whether the climate in Kosovo would suit you as Ilir breaks down what to expect from season to season.
- Listen in to hear what Ilir believes are the most important points foreigners should know about this often misunderstood country.
