@@buhlermarin9372Inflation is killing my budget and my salary, I can't invest, and it seems like will need to sell a part of my stock and crypto portfolio to keep my head above the water this time
@@thenavigator8052There's a lot around crypto and the economics at large, you must learn to buy high in other to sell low, or buy low in order to sell high
@@unknownsanz9493 Crypto is bringing a different revolution in the world economy, people who are optimistic in investing earn massively and consistently, the rest will just relax and watch!
@@thenavigator8052I have heard alot of people talk about this crypto and how much profit they make from it, I would really like to give it a shot
I'm heading back for my 5th trip to Malta in just 3 weeks and I can't wait. It's such a great country. I love the people, the food, the architecture, absolutely everything. The churches are so beautiful they've brought tears to my eyes. I've made friends with the locals who are very loud, want to know everything about you, and love to have a chat. I get a 1-week bus pass for 21 euros and the buses are frequent and go everywhere you need to go. I stay in St Pauls Bay, this trip at the Mayflower Hotel. It's a quieter area of Malta, so you can head around and see all the sights amongst the hustle and bustle then head back to where things are quieter. I love the little casino in St Paul Bay for a bit of a gamble and cocktails in the evening. I love Bingo with all the Maltese nonnas. I love walking along the wide paths that hug the seaside. I love the Maltese balconies on the houses and all the saints by the front door of people's homes. As for the food, my favourite thing is beef olives. Gosh, I just can't wait.
Very useful! Now I can't wait to see Malta for myself! It honestly looks so beautiful, and the food also looks - and sounds - delicious!
Love your videos. So informative and to the point. Thankyou
Thank you! for your video. I will visit Malta this year and your tips are great!
Thanks for this video! I'm visiting Malta at the end of September, so this is super-helpful and informative.
I love those places that are heavily steeped in tradition and culture, so Malta seems like such a good fit for my style of travel. Thank you for your amazing videos and information. Great job once again.
Aw thank you so much! It definitely sounds like you would enjoy Malta. Hope you get to see it for yourself sometime soon 🤞🏼
Thanks I got home sick now!!! Amazing video! I am one of those who love Maltese sweaty summers. Cannot wait to go back!
Some amazing shots here Happy to wander. Malta looks great
Very well done, thank you for your hard work!!
That was beautiful video Thank you so much.
Love your honest description of Malta. Im planning to visit it one day for it's rich History. Thank you
Great video! 🙌
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video!
Thanks for this. I'm planning a trip to Malta this September/October so I'm sure I'll be watching this again and again.
I went there last month and it is an absolutely wonderful country
This is so informative! Thank you for sharing! I go to Malta later this year, I can’t wait!
Thank you!!!
beautiful work thanks
nice video!!
Very useful information
Thank you for the video what a small and nice country 🎉🎉
Great video! All your videos are really good, very educational & engaging. Question, I am looking for a good camera to film myself, which one (not too expensive), easy to use, would you recommend? Thanks in advance!
Thanks so much for the kind words! My camera is a bit pricey (it’s the Sony A7IV) but my first good camera was the Nikon D3200 which served me well for many years :)
Beautiful island ❤
This is great. We are planning a trip for either Jan. or Feb.'25. Do you recommend this time of year?
Thank you for that... fun fact... popeye village is named as such because it was the film set for the Robin William's, Shelley duvall "popeye" movie itself, these are all in the movie, have a watch,
Just visted Malta for 3 days, and for the most part I enjoyed it, but I really didn't like the bus which I got to Mdina, it was very busy like you said at 4:08 and slow, and the seats felt really uncomfortable. And yes, Valletta (and Malta too) to me seemed to have a lot of British influence. Will definitely go again!
Great content, thank you...would love to go... (I could listen to you longer, but i wish you'd slow down a tad and take a breath)
I did edit the playback speed - settings then click playback speed to 0.75😊
I cant imagine,living in a big country,i love my country so beautiful
I've been seeing alot of travel vlogs about Malta looks like a beautiful country with lots of history which I love have to add it to my long list of countries to visit.
it’s absolutely stunning there!! I hope you get to see for yourself sometime :)
the history in Malta looks wonderful - right from 4000 bc.
Fair play. lived there for a year and this is bang on
I have some questions, Can I get your Instagram ID ?
ty
You haven't mentioned st Peter's pool a very famous beach next to Marsaxlokk
We were at Malta last month and it was one of my favorite European country. Please post about Prague as well.
Glad to hear you enjoyed your time there!! Prague would be a good one. I’ve been there quite a few times. I’ll see what I can do haha
Madame Blanc on Acorn is set in Gozo.
We enjoyed your video, but nowadays the seas around Malta are actually quite empty fishwise. Most fish is being imported. Probably those seas will be empty soon as well.
Waaoo,Hotel,how many five star hotels,How many standard hotels and lodges ?
The greetings sounds like French tho 😀 interesting
Yes! Definitely some French influence there for sure haha. Malta is such a unique mashup of different cultures!
You are talking very first, I like
Make content about Uzbekistan.
Uzbekistan is one of the touristy area too
Honestly I’m so nervous for an school internship, I’m going for 10 weeks😢
Malta is not cheap, especially the places you want to visit as a tourist. The better restaurants cost the same as in any more visited capital in Western Europe.
I had to check if settings were on double speed 😅
As a non-native English speaker, it’s my dream to speak English like her. 😁
😂 Me too!
0.75x 👍
is it safe for women to travel solo in Malta?
How to apply work in malta
So anything that covers ur knees only??
Knees and shoulders I think she said.
Madam

You are so beautiful! ❤
Busses not on time due to traffic. Everyone expects them to fly......
in iambic tek tianinama ➡️ ill hit you with
a wooden spoon, en hut buck➡️ I love you, bonjo ➡️ good morning, I probibly spelt all the malties words wrong
It alright saying go elsewhere the places like Malta and other countries would absolutely go bust is it wasn’t for tourists
If someone who watched Jurassic world dominion.
Find a spot place you remember where there film at!
Im going to Malta in april is it possible to swim?
I just went in February and people were already swimming. It is not super hot, but definitely possible.
@@angelikaf.7594 The answer I need 🤣🤣🤣
Are you Malta? ..
Thank you for the great info! Suggestion, talk a little slower
I need malta visa please help me😢
Good afternoon in Maltese sounds like simlish
Popeye Village is overrated. First time, it is a nice visit, but after that , it quickly looses its charm, especially because of the long walk from the bus.
Hi nice video, but please not so fast talking, thanks
Watch it on half speed.
Please can my uncle in Germany with PR give me sponsorship letter to study in any Malta both are Schengen country
With this, no longer POF right?
Education in Malta is rated very high,and the best thing ,it is free for all.Good luck.
Yeah Malta is beautiful but for us locals it feels like we're invaded and we can't breathe properly in our own home so please keep in mind it's jam packed and chaotic. I suggest you take your breaks in bigger countries and give us all a break because we're toxic at the moment 💔 I apologies for my boldness, this is not hate speech, it's sickness.
Wtf, u do kno malta is thriving bcz of tourism influence too right? Tourist arent invaders hun
I am half Maltese and am wanting to visit Malta to see my grandad and other family for the first time. But I don’t want to be another tourist, I’ve heard about this issue
You want to come to Britain if you want to see Invaded ! . The whole of Europe is being Invaded 😡. unfortunately that's life and until our own governments stop it it will continue .
@@liam-lb1lw. Just go and see you family Liam . Ignore penny 🤔
Tourism is one of the main components of the Maltese economy. Take that away and Malta would probably end up in a recession.
Someone I know told me about an encounter where a woman she met called Malta malata. What the hell is malata
Hmmm there appears to be a restaurant called Malata Restaurant in Valleta…. Could that be it?
@@HappytoWander Probably not because she specifically mentioned the country.
very informative video ,but it would be helpful if you did not speak so quickly
Gave up watching part way because of two things, the constant mispronunciation of 'Gozo' and the speed of the narrative!
Gozo is a soft Z you make it sound like Goatzo, totally wrong!
And yes I do live in Gozo!
Please make allowances .She is not Maltese and her English is perfect
Try speaking more slowly. You are barely understandable
#1 - NEVER fly with Air Malta. I recommend you read online reviews, they are the worst.
Shut up
I'm curious - are you paid by the word? - DAMN you talk fast! - Ruined it all.
please learn how to pronouce words before you make a video about it 😭😭
