Far removed from its old-fashioned and distorted image, one small country in the Balkans is displaying growth and optimism. Albania embodies a new Eldorado, and many Italians are succumbing to it.

In 1990, after the fall of the communist dictatorship, thousands of Albanians arrived in their masses on Italian shores. Now, immigration is happening the other way round.

Confronted with the economic crisis, inhabitants of the Italian peninsula are looking beyond its borders. Michele Barbaro supplies Tirana’s best restaurants with his Italian cheeses, and Vincenzo Commisso, a young entrepreneur, is tremendously successful. Out of a spirit of adventure for some, and necessity for others, young and less young are crossing the Adriatic Sea to settle in Albania.
