Ping!
What, no pictures?
Have fun....
I wanted an Albanian girl but my wife said no.
I’m afraid to ask what a “felthy farmer” might me.
I’m thinking he should probably get his mind out of the gutter. Maybe the new Albanian girl will help.

no coffee for me thanks.
“waelthy farmer”
Sorry, a typo.
None of the pictures on this thread are of “field working” wives. “If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make..... da dee de dum da da do....”
Albania is 70% Muslim and 10% Catholic.
What percentage of Albanians are Catholic? I know Albania was predominantly Muslim, of course since Hoxha declared Albania as the world’s first officially “atheist state,” I’m not sure how much of a factor religion plays today in modern Albania 20 years after the end of Stalinist rule there.
10% and shrinking.
They are prone to leaving Albania due to the Muslim pressure. Allmost all Catholic Albanians left Kosovo (5% of Kosovo population)
OK, here you go.
And here's another.
They work in different fields.

My offer to the parents for their daughter is 3 goats and a donkey cart... okay, I’ll through in the donkey too!
Albanians are a strange people- the clan is the main political structure in much of the country outside of the cities. There are some Albanian clans that are mixed religion. The Catholic members of such a clan will happily take the side of their Muslim clan members over the Catholic members of another clan. The main Albanian national here, Skanderbeg, was a Catholic who led Albanian resistance to the Ottoman Empire.
Albanians aren't terribly religious, whether Muslim or Christian.
When I took the Albanian girl aside, to talk to her about her cleaning, she asked if she were in trouble. I replied that she wasn't, but that I couldn't take unfair advantage of her any more. I said I was giving her a $20/week allowance for what she did around the house (which put her on a more equal footing with the Ukranian girl), and after that, I didn't have to do a thing around the house! As soon as the last bite of dessert was lifted off my plate, the dish would be in the sink before I was done chewing!
