"You have to do two jobs, otherwise you can't do it", Rama:
Edi Rama

Safety in Albania is one of the elements that all foreigners point out, and it is even one of the reasons why many foreigners choose to live here.

Londoner Karl Roberts, former TAP manager in Albania, has now chosen to live in Tirana, where he has also bought an apartment. In a podcast with Prime Minister Edi Rama, he shares his first impressions of arriving in Albania.

"I've traveled the world and I like places like Albania. I was excited to come here. I was in Switzerland. When I went on Sunday afternoon, everything was closed. Everything is organized there. I like places like Albania. I expected to see a Russian influence, more than I was told.

"I feel safer in Tirana than I would if I were walking in London or Manchester, especially in the evenings ."

The Prime Minister also noted that many foreigners identify safety on the streets of Tirana as a very important element in choosing to live there.

It's still like a pendulum towards 'escape'. Because on your phone you have a phone that looks at beautiful images of Germany, Britain, actors, cars and you say yes I want to go. But it's not that easy because there is more photoshop than the reality of an Albanian going there. But what impresses me is that all foreigners are happy about the security. When I tell people they say. What are you saying is security in Albania and there is none in London, Berlin, Paris? Yes

Karl Roberts: Absolutely. I feel safer in Tirana than I would if I were walking in London or Manchester, especially in the evenings.

Rama: In the evening. Every corner I've met here. I was walking with my wife at midnight. It's what we loved so much. It's not easy anywhere else in Europe. Paris is not easy at night. It's complicated. You have to know the streets, the neighborhoods where to go.

Another topic of discussion was life between Albania and Britain.

I was in London to meet with Albanians and the story is often heard, very often and I'm talking about people who are stable, work hard, who started out trying to do everything and now have families, children. It was the same thing: You have to do two jobs, otherwise you can't make it. Of course in some ways it's good for the children, but it's not so good for the children. Free time to spend with the family is zero.

I've had people here who have come from immigration and say the same thing. When people look at the salaries from here and compare, of course there is a big difference. But what's behind that salary, when it comes to rent, taxes, bills to pay, is unaffordable in Britain, or anywhere else in Europe. So it has to be weighed up, but still I understand people who want to challenge themselves, trying where they think the opportunities are greater. That's normal.
