It’s so funny to see different perspectives, I am from Brazil, and I have been searching about Malta in videos with people from many different countries. The perspective about prices, trash, Maltese working mindset, are completely different depending on the background you are from.
Hi, thanks for the comment, we actually did the same exact thing when planning to move to Malta, and when living there the people will also have different perspectives about the topics even between Maltese themselves 😅😊
Maltese wash their floors and what do they do wirh a pail of water that remains. They throw the water in the street in front of their home. This way they wet the ever pesent dust. preventing the wind from blowing it into their home.
I remember having the larger collection bins (we used to call them skips) in the streets - with the Maltese heat it's impossible to have waste waiting there for days before it's collected. The amount of insects and rats that they attracted was horrendous. Not to mention the smells.
Hi guys, first of all I wish you are still enjoying your stay in Malta. I have to add that what you are experience is the Mediterranean culture. You will find this in other nearby Mediterranean countries such as southern Italy / sicily, greece, south of spain and even south of france. And to add to all this, Malta is very very dense/small, and the heat through out the year will amplify everything.
Hi and thanks for the comment and watching the video 😊 we have now moved on to a new chapter in our lives, but we enjoyed our stay in Malta nevermind all the culture shocks 👍☺️
Sundays in winter are perfect for exploring the countryside. Just grab a bus, pack a picnic and go exploring Delimara, Bengħisa, għar Ħasan, Wied iż-Żurrieq, għar Lapsi, Fawwara, Dingli cliffs, Buskett, Mtaħleb, Landrijiet, Ġnejna, majjistral park... Don't stay at home watching videos! :)
Hey there! The phone service providers asked you for your ID as it is now an EU legal requirement as far as I heard. This minimises the risk of anonymous phone calls/burner phones/phones used to trigger explosives etc if the police need to trace you down. You have the option not to register on the public phone directory though so only in extreme circumstance you will be identified! (and you should use this option). If you need anything drop a msg ;) (I live full time in Gozo and part time in Malta).
Great video as always, thank you. Did you know there used to be a window tax in the UK, that's why the windows on older type properties are very small.
@@WeAreHarvestingdreams there have been some strange laws and taxes over the years. Anyways I had to watch again as my wife came in just as you where finishing, she said she was somewhat disappointed this week as you didn't answer a subscriber question! I suggested if she wanted a question answered she should ask one. So here is the question from Rowena. What are your jobs? She's very inquisitorial my wife is. 😁😁😁
Hi there, I love your contents, they are always really interesting. A little detail though, could you do something for the sound quality please ? Like some small microphones that you could have on you both. It can be complicated to hear properly what you're saying sometimes. Keep it up dudes
Hi and thanks for the nice comment and feedback :) we actually already have a microphone added to the camera but sometimes its not enough with the noisy Malta :D we have been thinking about getting some lavalier microphones, so hopefully future videos will have even better sound :)
In Malta 🇲🇹 they don’t have heating at all, it’s fucking freezing 🥶 i never froze more in my life like here!!! They think our countries are cold because of snow or winter, but our houses are so nice and cozy, here is freezing 🥶 plus humidity is so high, your bones 🦴 are freezing, and that’s why many many people have artists 🧑🎨 after certain age!!!
This about phone number, wasn’t the case till couple years ago! You could buy prepaid number in every market!!! That happens in Switzerland 🇨🇭 long time ago, but in Switzerland for obvious reasons, criminal is on a high level!!!
Nice to hear about the "Positves". Re- "Negatives" hope the respective authorities are watching 👁🗨. As to (without sounding defensive) : Throwing washing water onto the street, it's actually "Illegal" ; Garbage bags problem I believe the 'problem' is being looked into by respective Minister 🤞; ID requirement to obtain a Mob phone SimCard is for Security /'Crime Prevention' reasons and one finds this is the practice in a lot of Developed countries like say Australia ; and finally re a lot of Shops not opening on Sunday is because of the old "Religious Sabbath" 🤔. BTW, PLEASE don't lock yourselves "inside" in Winter - go enjoy a nice refreshing coastal or countryside WALK. Thank you 🙏. Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Yes, the amount of trash or garbage on the streets is indescribable, whether in bags or not. Compared to Belarus, where every city or village is super clean, this is still the most shocking experience after our relocation to Malta.
2m between people in a queue?? in Malta?? That way you're inviting at least 5 people to get in the queue before you. Manners in Malta are ..well...never existed.
well, you know ... malta, is a lifestyle ... somewhere between the islandish, cosmopolitan and ancient ... it seems to me, you just don t fit it, and forcing the fit, is always a bad idea
Trust me, you will never ever see something similar to this crazy, stuck in age island 😂😂😂You’re lucky to run 🏃 away from here, trust me! Enjoy nature in Latvia 🇱🇻 now

Curious question, why is the camera angle weird..? The guys head looks much bigger then his body, not to be rude, just curious
I thought I was tripping a need to see someone else say it.
looks like it’s slightly fish eye lens or on a wide angle

Hi Ivan, thanks a lot for the very informative comment, we appreciate it :)
Great video as always, thank you. Did you know there used to be a window tax in the UK, that's why the windows on older type properties are very small.
Haha first we thought you were joking, and now did some research and we are amazed! Thanks for watching and of course for the great information! 😊

Well then you will have to tell your wife to tune in for next week's video because we will give the answer to that question 😅
@@WeAreHarvestingdreams I have informed her......
Garbage on the streets is common in major cities like London, a massive pet hate of mine

Hey guys any advice for solo female traveler in Malta?
Hi, We considered Malta to be relatively safe, especially in daytime and in central areas 😊
Just today an article in The Times Of Malta is published:
"Door-to-door garbage collection may get binned"
Brief summary: In 10 years or so ...
Haha we have quite some time to wait then 😅
I need your help i am planning to come to malt for work can you suggest me the easy job to get there
Very nice video
Thank you 😊
Outside our holiday area there was bins thrown outside smelling with a woman's bra on top - NICE!!
in canada we do our garbage like malta
Strange, so in latvia you can get a phone without id... it's like in malta also in Germany or in Italy
Yes you could get as many as you want as long as you pay 😅

Thank you very much for the informative comment! As long as it's not pouring rain we will probably still keep hiking around the beautiful island 😊
@@WeAreHarvestingdreams As your partner suggested in the vlog : "Don't forget to take an umbrella with you" ☺.
Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Nothing regarding the religiosity (superstitions - my words) of the Maltese?
To be honest since we are not religious ourselves, we haven't been that exposed to many religious people and superstitions as you say :D

It's not that unusual to have rubbish collected at your doorstep
Hi again .
Par atkritumiem , Itālijā ir līdzīgi , dienvidu galā , Gan ir mazi spainīši , bet idejiski ....
Saka ka plāno sakārtot atkritumu apsaimniekošanu, taču tas prasīšot vairākus gadus un arī pēc tam nav zināms vai tas strādās 👍
Hi
2m between people in a queue?? in Malta?? That way you're inviting at least 5 people to get in the queue before you. Manners in Malta are ..well...never existed.
Well 2m does seem a lot, but breathing down your neck is bit too close for our taste 😅
well, you know ... malta, is a lifestyle ... somewhere between the islandish, cosmopolitan and ancient ... it seems to me, you just don t fit it, and forcing the fit, is always a bad idea

Wanted to move there until i found out that there is a mandatory jab policy.
Wankers
Hi, We weren't aware that now the jab is mandatory :o
Mandatort all jabs or only covid jabs?
"Shocks" here in Malta? Probably not.....
Maltese wants to take your soul at work!!! They want to squeeze every cent from you for what are you paid
Great vid, ty for info! Rihard, you have a huge head. Seems fake :D
Paldies! :D
Someone said it.
Is your husband eating ok ? Why is he so skinny
Are u not cooking for your husband
This is a great video. You gave some important insights. Thank you
Thanks for watching glad it was useful 😊
