No.
I am split between “No” and “Heck No”
There does not seem to be any serious relationship between the two so traveling to visit the family in Albania just seems odd.
…reading further “we are a religion that Muslims historically do not get along with”
okay. It is “heck no”.
How do you think that would even work when he introduces your daughter to the parents? I can’t imagine that it wouldn’t be awkward to say the least (although the parents may not be Muslim)
this should be considered.
My understanding is this is for things like: there is a coup or the Embassy is trying to evacuate all the Americans for some reason. Basically, for the Embassy to contact you. Not for you to contact the Embassy due to a personal situation.
If it was my kid I would try to talk her out of it.
No! Please listen carefully… NO!
My husband & I are both originally from a country that directly neighbors Albania, there are many Albanians that live there and we have many Albanian friends. That being said, I understand their mentality, you & your daughter don’t. Yes, this young man may be “modern” & speak English but traditions and ways of life are deeply seeded. Stop thinking like an American, because sorry to be so blunt, but they are NOT!
A women has no reason or place to visit an Albanian man in his home as a guest. It can only imply (& will be treated as such) that she is a potential bride. Women are not equal to men. She doesn’t know their traditions or way of life. It is a poor country, nothing to do or see there. This is not Boca Raton or London…more like dirt roads, very spotty WiFi & gypsies galore. Not exactly a vacation destination. Everyone I know aspires to leave Albania, not go there!
On the flip side, most of my Albanian friends here in the states are incredibly beautiful, modern people that are the most hospitable people you will ever meet. They are honorable and true to their word, reputation is everything.
As for sex trafficking, it wouldn’t even be my primary concern, as this can happen anywhere abroad.
If they want to be together, can’t they just meet somewhere in the middle? I’m truly sorry if I’ve offended anyone here and you can all attack me for being so brutally honest, but I know I wouldn’t let my own daughter go because it is just that different there.
OP here. I wanted to offer a follow up. My daughter did go and all went well. She had a lovely time.
The one real snafu was that her phone kept trying to do an update and she was never able to get it charged enough to fully to the update. She finally gave up on it and didn’t use it.
The other problem was that she called her cell phone service provider and confirmed that they offer coverage in Europe. Ok, that was checked off her list. Well, it turned out that evidently no one at T-miblie knows that Albania is in Europe. So when she tried to text us to tell us that she had arrived in Albania, she got all kinds of warnings on her phone about fees. Since she’d called before leaving, these warning surprised her. So no texts from her on her phone.
Aside from that, she had a great experience. All my worries were for naught. 
Thanks to everyone who replied to my initial post!
What a lovely update! Although I am sorry about the stress the phone hiccups must have caused you.
