Albania 2017

Sun, 22 Oct 2017 01:01:01 +0200

Three mens, one free week, roadtrip in Albania. Tirana, riviera, south and finally the transit Budapest.

We got nice recommendations from "Alfi" an Albanian friend who runs a nice Caffe/Bar in Nymburk. As many people, even we considered Albania and undeveloped country and poor people. What a surprise we soon have found a much better picture of the region.

Even though I am now pretty solid in DevOps, applying it on low frequency used blog and keeping django running for years it’s overhead. I will rather spend that one with my kids. Sorry loved #django #python ;-(.

On the other hand, during the time, I wrote few pages using static generators and Hugo is the latest one I kept an eye on. So why not give it a chance. Well there is only one summary: Besides @spf13 is supposed to be genius - Hugo is really the framework that makes building the webpages a fun again!

With feelings of "just" longer vacation we are back at home country. Adriana noted that it's cold and a minute later paced a question When this Europe vacation ends?

Just for all our readers. We are in CR since 25.12. Since that time to Feb 06 we have been staying in our flat over night just for one night. Seems we are still live like an backpackers :-D. Sure there was couple of reasons - meeting friends, pub & beer, meeting friends, pub & beer etc. Last two weeks in February we took care of Adriana brother children (4y,8y and 17y) while he was on his Thailand vacation. At the time of writing this post we are even back at our regular jobs, monkeying money again :-).
