Where am I?

By that, do you mean the ever increasing steel/glass type structures along with the ubiquitous brand name stores?

Or a sense of missing a local flavour being replaced by a flavour that you could find in many European Cities regardless of the country that they are in?

A bit of both - although many of the modern high-rise buildings here in Tirana are dating and stunning.
