'Towards the end of 1996 I was on my second year of my editorial photography degree course in Brighton. I visited a friend who worked for a magazine called War Report. He talked about Albania and how it had opened its doors to tourism, after many years of being isolated under Communist rule.

...Shortly after I returned back from Albania in early January 1997, the Albanian Civil War had begun, having been sparked by pyramid scheme failures in Albania soon after its transition to a market economy.'
