Best grape mint shisha tobacco in Germany

I’m looking for a really good grape mint shisha flavor. I’m currently using Al Fakher Grape Mint and I like the flavor, but I find that it burns pretty quickly and starts tasting harsh.

What grape mint brands/flavors would you recommend that have a strong, long-lasting taste and handle heat better?

Preferably something similar to Al Fakher Grape Mint, just better quality. Thanks!

Buying an apartment through a Zwangsversteigerung in Germany – €35k budget

Guten Tag!

I’m a student from the Netherlands and have saved around €35,000, which I’d like to invest. I’m considering buying a small apartment (max. ±30 m²) near the Dutch border through a Zwangsversteigerung (foreclosure auction).

I speak some German, but not well enough to confidently deal with legal and technical documents. I’ve seen apartments with estimated values around €30–35k, but it’s difficult to find clear information about the risks and process.
Is it possible to get professional assistance with the entire purchase/auction process as a foreign buyer? And can you normally view the apartment or arrange a technical inspection (Bausachverständiger) before bidding?

I’d also like to know what the main risks and additional costs are, for example unpaid Hausgeld, existing tenants/occupants or other obligations you
might take over.

Would €35k be realistic, and is a Zwangsversteigerung something you would recommend to a first-time buyer?

Any experiences or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Advice on new bowl and HMD for Al Fakher

Hi everyone,

I’m currently using an Oduman Orion with a Darkside bowl and an Omno HMD. I mostly smoke Al Fakher Grape Mint, but I’m having an issue with the tobacco burning way too quickly. The flavour becomes harsh/bitter pretty fast, even when I try to manage the heat carefully.

I’m thinking about replacing the Darkside bowl with something that works better with Al Fakher.

What bowl would you recommend for Al Fakher, especially Grape Mint, in combination with an HMD?

Preferably something that gives good flavour and smoke without overheating too easily.

Thanks!

Considering investing in Albania

Hi everyone,

I’m considering investing in real estate in Albania. The growing tourism sector, relatively low property prices, and the possibility of future EU accession make it seem like an interesting long-term investment.

I’ve spoken to a few Dutch agencies that mainly offer new-build projects, with options starting from around €35,000. While this seems attractive, I’m wondering if buying an existing apartment could actually be a better investment.

For those with experience in the Albanian property market:
- Would you choose new-build or existing property, and why?

- Is €35,000 enough to make a good investment?

- Are there any risks or things I should watch out for?

I’d really appreciate your insights. Thanks!

Didn't think this through very smartly and tried to clean the dirty parts with a hard scouring pad; now it has caused these scratches. Can this still be fixed?

Op dit moment ben ik aan het verkennen om te investeren in vastgoed in Albanië.

Wat mij vooral aanspreekt is de potentie van het land, mede door de gevorderde toetreding tot de EU. Ik zie ergens parallellen met Kroatië destijds: relatief lage m²-prijzen vóór toetreding, waarna de vastgoedprijzen flink stegen.

Mijn idee:

- Budget rond de €25k–€30k momenteel beschikbaar

- Appartement kopen voor 50 waarbij de rest van het bedrag via een soort betalingsplan verloopt

Waar ik nog over twijfel:

- Hoe betrouwbaar zijn dit soort trajecten in Albanië?

- Zijn er mensen hier met ervaring in vastgoed daar?

- Waar moet je echt op letten (wetgeving, eigendom, risico’s, etc.)?

Ik ben zelf in contact met een partij uit Nederland: Albania Invest. Ziet er op het eerste gezicht betrouwbaar uit, maar ik hoor graag of iemand hier ervaring mee heeft of andere partijen kan aanraden.

Alle inzichten zijn welkom 🙏
