HARES: Gladiator, TwinTower, + ??

WHERE: a beach south of Durres, between Karpen and Spille

DIRECTIONS: Take the main highway south of Durres. About 20 km south of Durres, near the town of Kavaje, turn toward the beach at the sign Synej-Bogo. Drive time from Tirana is about 90 minutes. This will be hard to find unless you have a GPS or can follow someone.

These websites may be useful to you when first coming to Albania.

HARES: Gladiator!

WHERE: A beautiful coastal area just north of the Rodon penninsula and just south of the Mat River estuary.

DIRECTIONS: Follow the Durres highway to the airport turnoff, toward Fush Kruje and take the road north to Lezhe. Go about 17 km and look for a sign to Patog. Take the turnoff and wait until the lead car catches up and can lead you to the exact site.

The following pages will point out the obvious and not-so-obvious things you need to know in order to have an enjyable hash experience. Feel free to suggest more!

Hash 704 to the Pellumbas Cave was long and HOT! Several of our hashers experienced symptoms of heat exhaustion:

- tired muscles
- mild nausea
- feeling faint
- dizziness

This is your body's way of saying, "Time Out! Stop and rest before you die!"

Any activity that has a date and time is an event. This includes concerts, movies, hashes, after-hash parties, anything that has a starting time and date. To share such events with your hasher friends, add them to this website and they will be automatically published.

Other expats (some of them hashers) are writing about their experiences in Albania. Read their blogs to learn more about the social, human, and everyday aspects of life in Albania.
