Hi there

First, I'm a travel agent for the swiss railways, so I have not so much a questions for the train connections,
but the gap's inbetween;

I plan to try and get in a fortnight-trip every ex-yugoslavien country + Albania.

I will fly from Zurich via Ljubliana (Slovenia) to Tirana (Albania).
Then I plan to travel by bus to Pristina (Kosovo).
Train to Skopje, train to Belgrad, train to Podgorica.
then a bus to Sarajevo
train to Ploce and bus to Split
train to Zagreb and finally the nighttrain back to Zurich.
(of course I will overnight in each city one or two nights in hotels)

My questions for you is the following:
1. is it easy to get around knowing only german and english
2. any information about the bus from Tirana to Pristina
3. I read somewhere that in Pristina the railwaystation is quite outside of the town,
has anyone information about that (the only train to Skopje leaves at 7.10 am)
4. and finally the bus from Podgorica to Sarajevo, has anyone done that and how easy is it.

I like to book anything I can in advance, so links to booking pages in english would be great as well.
Thanks
