People are usually friendly and ready to help, although most car drivers will not understand the concept of hitch-hiking, considering also that a private taxi is a major form of public transport. Therefore, make sure that before you board a vehicle the driver is not an informal cab-driver. Also, make sure to keep an eye on the road - if the driver makes sudden turns and other similar actions while driving it is likely that he is either a taxi driver or that he thinks he is doing good by bringing you to the local bus station, and would expect some money from you. You therefore will have to be reiterative on stating that you travel by '''autostop'''. This kind of driver behavior usually is not valid for the company car or truck drivers': they are already salaried and won't be offering a taxi service to you.

In Tirana (and probably in other cities, too) you can find very cheap local food markets with really good and fresh vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, olives, etc. Local olive oil and freshly baked bread is something everyone has to taste!
