Prishtina Local Spotter
About me
I'm an ambitious person on my way to adulthood who loves writing about things that impress me and playing music. I try to keep myself busy and stay active most of the time, so I love taking on or making up projects for myself.
Why Prishtina
I've been breathing Prishtina's air since I was born and I have the feeling that in a sense, we grew up together. Neither of us looks anything like we did 10 years ago, but we have certainly remained our true selves and have kept our character.
Germia Park
A Playground for All Ages
Way out in the woods of Gërmia park in Prishtina, you'll witness a harbour for sports lovers from all over.
Kafet e Rakisë
A tilted lane of lively caffes
This alley in Prishtina offers a buffet of choice when it comes to the best raki and coffee spots.
Papirun
Get Your Hands Dirty
'Papirun' in Prishtina means 'no fork', so show no hesitation in eating your meal like it's a midnight snack here.
Dukagjini
A place with stories to tell
'Dukagjini' in Prishtina is a bookshop that's so comfy and beautiful, I just like hanging out there!
