We Quit Corporate Jobs and Sold Our House to Move to Albania in Our 30s ...
Sam Correll and Spencer Claiborne moved from the US to Albania after finding the American dream wasn't for them. Courtesy of Samuel Correll 2026-04-17T15:09:01.234Z Corporate life in America left Sam Correll and Spencer Claiborne jaded and bored. So they traded the American dream for new opportunities in Albania. In Albania, they've changed careers and became entrepreneurs who help others move abroad. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Sam Correll, 38, and Spencer Claiborne, 30, who moved from Kansas City, Missouri, to Saranda, Albania, a coastal town about 30 minutes from Corfu, Greece.

We didn't want to wait until we were retired, elderly, or either of us had some sort of health event before we decided that we wanted to go and see the world and become international.Correll: We were tired of our day-to-day grind, but we didn't initially plan on moving to Albania. We went on a three-month-long scouting trip through Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain, and the UK. Correll at the airport with all of his belongings. Courtesy of Samuel Correll We went back home, and then we decided we wanted to make the move less than a year later. It made sense from the housing market we were in to sell our house, so we listed it. Then it was more about where can we go, and where can we stay for a while while we make a long...
