Articles on diaspora life: loneliness, identity between two worlds and mental health self-care for Albanians in Germany, Switzerland and beyond.
Living far from your homeland brings opportunity, but also an emotional weight that is rarely named: loneliness, the feeling of living between two worlds, the pressure to prove you have made it and the wounds that cannot be seen from the outside. For Albanians in Germany, Switzerland, Austria and beyond, these experiences often remain unspoken. This is the richest category of our blog: articles about identity, loneliness in a new country, summer visits back home and taking care of yourself in the diaspora, written by people who know this reality up close.
