I wrote a long-form article with photos about the lives of pastoralist shepherds in northern Albania for issue 3 of Point.51 Magazine, responding to the theme of 'Resilience'. The article examines popular myths and stereotypes about shepherds, contrasting these with the day to day realities I witnessed while living and working with shepherds in the Kelmend valley.
