Police in Albania :/

Sooo something exciting, we had to go to the police station!! Okay, you cant imagine one in America because it is nothing like that, it says policia on the outside so it looks like it is going to be a simple, nice, police station. Not the case, inside looks like an abandoned DMV but worse. So basically my companion, lost her phone, so we went up to a police mans office and he smoked as he asked us a series of question, one was if we wanted a cigarette. So that is definitely a first and hopefully a last, but it was an experience to say the least.

We had so many people in our English course this week. We saw a family that comes to our course, when we were out to eat and they paid for our meal. It was the sweetest thing ever! People here are so giving and so thoughtful it totally made our day! They left without letting us know they had paid for it, and shows how selfless they are they didn't care to have any credit for what they had done. That is so amazing, so important that we do acts of service without expecting recognition. That reminds me of Christ, he served everyone and expected no thanks for the things that he did. People may not always show thanks for the things that we do, but we can be more Christlike when we serve others, whether they appreciate it or not.

I am loving it out here! I am also getting transferred to a new city called Berat so that will be way exciting, I will keep you all updated! Love you guys, have the best day!
