American discovers 'Europe's most overlooked country' with £1.50 pints that 'looks like Maldives'

With beachside huts and hammocks, rolling white sands and turquoise waters, one European nation has been liked to the beautiful South Asian island that is a hit with travellers An American who dreamed of quitting the United States for Europe discovered a dreamy destination likened to the Maldives where pints cost as little as £1.50. Cepee Tabibian quit Texas for Spain when she was 35 years old, but it wasn't until last year that she discovered a country she says many Americans couldn't even locate on a map. ‌ Writing in CNBC, Cepee says she had heard positive things about Albania before she decided to spend a month in the Balkan nation. Cepee spent a month in the capital, Tirana, as well as travelling the Albanian coast to 'see what the buzz was about'. ‌ Although Cepee admits Albania may 'not be for everybody' she says it 'checks a lot of boxes' for people wanting to swap life in the States for Europe. It led her to conclude that it was one of the most 'overlooked destinations in Europe for those hoping to relocate'. ‌ Cepee praised Albania for being affordable, picturesque, and community-minded. She wrote: 'Albania is one of the few places in Europe where you can still rent a comfortable apartment for under $500 a month, according to the women in my network. This low cost of living is one of the biggest reasons Americans are flocking there.' She says the cost of groceries, dining out, and healthcare make the country an attractive prospect for people who want to work as digital nomads or retire to the continent. Those wanting to explore Albania can enjoy tours through the alps as well as the Adriatic Sea in the west and the Ionian in the south. ‌ She continued: 'During my trip, I drove down the Albanian Riviera and visited Saranda, a lively seaside town with a beautiful promenade. It was September and the weather was still warm enough to swim and sunbathe, but the beaches were practically empty — a rare treat compared to places like Spain or Italy. On a clear day you can see Greece in the distance! The island of Corfu is just a 30-minute ferry ride away. 'I didn't make it to the northern mountains, but they're high on my list for next time. Remote villages, hiking trails, and gorgeous landscapes make it a dream for outdoor lovers.' Cepee highlights Albania's tourist boom over the past decade after it was locked away under half a century of communism until 1992. She however says this means it feels 'authentically Albanian'. ‌ Although the Albanian Riviera has seen a spike in tourism over the last few years, it is yet to become a mainstream destination for tourists. Its white beaches and turquoise waters have however drawn comparisons with the Maldives. Travellers wanting to visit Albania can find everything from beachside resorts to quiet coves along the sprawling coastline. Dhërmi is considered one of the country's most popular tourist villages with a 3 mile-long beach, bustling nightlife and annual Kala Fest, designed to promote tourism in the area. The beachside bars sell beers for as little as £1.50 while a room along the seafront can set travellers back as little as £25. It is however further south, in Ksamil, that has been dubbed the 'Maldives of Europe' on social media. Beaches such as Pema e Thatë have also proven a hit with tourists thanks to their beach huts and hammocks. The huts, available to rent for less than £8, became a viral sensation on TikTok.

From bites to beats: Your insider's guide to the DStv Delicious Festival

Joburg's most delicious weekend is back! Get ready to mark your calendars because the DStv Delicious International Food & Music Festival is returning to the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit. This year, the festival is celebrating three decades of creative freedom in South Africa with a weekend-long feast for all your senses. If you're a foodie, a music lover, or just someone looking for a great day out, here's everything you need to know. Dates, venue, and tickets The festival will take place on Saturday, 20 September and Sunday, 21 September 2025, at its usual home, the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit. Tickets are already available and can be purchased through Ticketmaster. Don't wait until the last minute, as tickets are known to sell out. A few things to note: There are no weekend passes, so you'll need to buy separate tickets for each day if you plan to attend the whole weekend. The event is strictly cashless, so bring your bank card. Parking is available on-site but is limited and costs less when pre-booked online with your ticket. The headliners and entertainment This year's music lineup promises a blend of international heavyweights and local icons. On Saturday, the stage will be lit up by American rapper Don Toliver, alongside South African favourites like Kwesta and the supergroup Inkabi Zezwe (Sjava & Big Zulu). The Channel O Dance Stage will feature a range of house, amapiano, and hip-hop artists, with a special international guest, Glastonbury Festival alumnus ASHOJU. Sunday is all about soul, jazz, and nostalgia. The main stage will be headlined by the legendary Ms. Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean, celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. They will be joined by special guests Ziggy Marley and YG Marley. The Sunday lineup also includes powerhouse local performers like Joyous Celebration Rewind, Mandisi Dyantyis, and Zoë Modiga, with Afro-soul queen Lira making a triumphant return. The foodie's paradise It wouldn't be Delicious without the food. The festival is a celebration of South African cuisine, bringing together top food traders who serve everything from street-style bites to gourmet creations. The Proudly South African Delicious Mile will be the ultimate food zone, where you can explore a wide range of tastes, from traditional dishes to unique culinary fusions. Keep an eye out for celebrity chef appearances and cooking demonstrations throughout the weekend. What to Bring (and what not to bring) Do bring: Your phone with your digital ticket downloaded, a bank card, and a handheld umbrella (in case of a surprise Highveld shower). Don't bring: Any food or drinks, including water. The festival has a strict no-pass-out policy and a zero-tolerance stance on outside beverages and food.

‘UK's weirdest arcade with a robot that massages your feet is the perfect day out'

Housed in a small unit, tucked away on a quiet by-street in Holborn, London, just off of Red Lion Square, is the strange yet excellent Novelty Automation "When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London all that life can afford," once mused Samuel Johnson. Presumably he had just come back from an afternoon at Novelty Automation when he said that. ‌ Housed in a small unit, tucked away on a quiet by-street in Holborn, London, just off of Red Lion Square, is the perfect afternoon out, especially for those who have begun feeling that they've tasted all that the English capital has to offer. ‌ You've been to M&M World. You've seen the big blue whale at the Natural History Museum more times than you care to admit. You've looked at Big Ben from Westminster Bridge. The obvious next step is Novelty Automation. ‌ The shop is a vibrant treasure-trove of Victorian-style automatons operated by shiny silver coins that roll down the cashier's chute into your awaiting bucket. Do you know of an unusual place you think we should visit? Please email ‌ Over the course of one to two hours, you'll make your way around the small shop, slotting between one and three coins into each of about 20 machines. The cost is reasonable: a bucket of 35 coins coming in at £28 and seeming plenty enough for three. Some machines do all of the work for you, such as the AirbedbugBNB, which invites up to two players to draw a curtain around them and witness the story of a family of bedbugs as they look for a suitable holiday let to settle down in. Another, the Instant Eclipse, had my friend clamber into a small, dark rocket-shaped pod. He emerged a minute later and refused to explain what had happened. He seemed similarly perturbed after placing his socked foot inside the robot chipodist machine. Those units that do require some participation are still much more focused on being vehicles of satire than on putting a gamer's hand-eye coordination to the test. ‌ One of the most addictive had the three of us tensely willing on a magnetised haul of coins up past financial regulators to the top of a skyscraper, where our ill-gotten gains could be effortlessly lost amid the City of London's modern spires. A particularly silly yet on-the-nose bit of satire comes in the form of the Fulfillment Centre machine, which has players powering an Amazon warehouse worker on an impossible and gruelling trial shift by running manically on the spot. Novelty Automation is the work of Tim Hunkin, a Suffolk-based inventor and cartoonist who presented a TV show called The Secret Life of Machines and drew a comic strip for The Observer called The Rudiments of Wisdom. Clearly, that combination of experiences has been brought together and used to excellent effect. The stylisation of the machines, their absurdist humour and gross characters remind me of the work of Chris Simpsons Artist. Arguably, the pinnacle of it all comes in the form of Is it Art?, which invited us to put an object into a small glass box. We chose a lighter which then rose up into the eyeliner of a mannequin art critic. After a short moment of consideration and a closer look he concluded that yes, it was indeed art.
