Moments of pleasure by Gernats
Yes I am a Kate Bush fan but my move is hoping for many moments of pleasure. I know life is hard where ever you live but sometimes just for a moment it's worth it. Have you had moments of pleasure in Malta, I would love to hear your happy ...

Life in Gozo by Gernats
Hi, After lot's of research Gozo seems like a good place for my family and I to live. I would like to have any information on life in Gozo, the good and the bad, any responses will be appreciated, Natalie

Sounds like the place for me also, but I have a 15 year old so college and schools may be a problem. But we would definitely prefer to live in a rural area. Sounds much like the area we live in now. Read More

I would also rather hear about good moments and not all the negative people seem to dwell on! Our family is not moving to Malta expecting to live in some paradise, it is one of the few options we have for a home to keep our family together. Read More

Try www.airbnb.com, you book directly with owner to rent apartment at daily rate. I'm sure you can find one that will allow pets. I was looking yesterday and there was quite a few places listed. Read More


Installing an outdoor jacuzzi, prices? by illerill
Hey guys, I really, really want an outdoor jacuzzi for my terrace. Something like this: google.se/search?q=outdoor jacuzzi ...

Yes, I saw your warnings. I was just wondering if it was common for people to do it anyways. Or for landlords to allow it. Read More

Is it common to put a pool like that on a roof top? Seems like the weight would be an issue! Or landlords might not allow it? Maybe I will bring one with me for the kids! 😆 I once heard a story of someone draining a rooftop pool with a ... Read More

Hi guys here's a good question for you that will help us get to know what lies ahead! What is the best and worst thing about living in Malta? Brutal honesty is fine by me, hope it gives you all lots to think bout too :) Ann-Marie

I'm looking forward to summers in Malta. It's already 35c here in New Mexico and only getting hotter. We also have much colder winters with ice and snow storms. Obviously the humidity in Malta probably makes the temperature feel more ... Read More


Dog groomers by Gernats
Has anyone had experice with dog groomers in Malta or is a dog groomer. I have a very successful mobile in home grooming business in the UK and was hoping to start up in Malta when we move. Any experiences or advice would be appreciated, Natalie

I have a dog sitting business in the US (in my home or yours) considering moving business to Malta when I go. Anyone paid for dog sitting in Malta? Rates? Read More

If UK were to leave the EU? by GuestPoster566

I'm trying to get a better understanding of what this vote will mean. I am a US citizen and my husband is UK. We will be arriving in Malta in August. If the vote is for leaving the EU, how likely is it that we would have to leave Malta? Read More


US dollar/ Euro by Jasminej
I'm going to have income in the US and I'm looking for the best way to transfer from dollar to euro. My bank will charge a fee each time I use my card, so I'm looking for a better way to transfer money. My husband has a Caxton card ...

Do you use this service? I've heard that it can take a bit to open a bank account in Malta, so we would be transferring from US to UK into pounds then from that to Caxton to have Euros? I was hoping there was something like Caxton where you ... Read More
