That鈥檚 exactly the answer I was looking for, short, simple and explained perfectly; thank you!! That explains why the lady we stayed with in Porto for a few month asked me to give her address to verify (which I misinterpreted as her assuming ... Read More

Hello everyone, The Olympic Games are now just a few days away and we would like to talk about sports. What sports are the most popular and/or unusual in Malta? Are sports facilities easily accessible there? Where and how can one find ...

I'm really struggling. It's been every day for the last week, from before 8am until after 11.30pm. The last couple of nights they are so bad our apartment is shaking. I also can't stand listening to the terrified dogs. I know ...
This sounds amazing!!!!! Going to have to visit this! Read More

Interesting topic. For me I'm an archer. On one occasion when I was in Malta I did ask the hotel if they knew of any archery places for me to attend. They pointed me to the Embassy shopping centre in Valletta, so I turned up with all my gear ... Read More
Britain to leave EU! by F0xgl0ve
1 GBP = 1.2339 EUR The GBP/EUR rate as of 24 Jun 2016 at 7:57 AM Nice to get an automatic cut in income of around 15% - Thank you Boris and Farage. Ray
Just out of interest, forgive me if I sound sarcastic (not intentional) but if you voted leave, have now got what you want, why are you abandoning the ship and leaving the country? Genuinely intrigued. Read More

Julie2016, I don't think you should worry about Article50 as much as you are. If you look at the immigration details for Malta, is does clearly say EU/EEA/Swiss nationals are eligible for residence. While we MAY (I'm still using that ... Read More

Again, excellent point, and figures I don't have (I don't think anyone has), and you're probably 100% right that this is coming from probably pro EU press and there more than likely would have been reversed had leave won. The point is ... Read More

Fred, your "problem?" is perfectly valid to say but the answer is that if you read the papers or look at the news the amount of people who are openly admitting they wish they'd voted remain is quite simple ridiculous. Obviously I ... Read More

Well as someone living in the UK at the moment and in the middle of sorting out dates to come and live in Malta this year, with a view of stopping for a few years, I'll be watching what happens very carefully. Trust me, coming home through the ... Read More
Renting property or holiday accommodation in Malta by expat1973
Hello to everybody! As I have seen there are a lot of discussions about renting, real estate agencies, accommodation and property in general on Expat forum Malta, think it would be great to share some of my experiences with you. I worked as a ...
Same boat as IanBirch57 (greetings from Surrey Quays). Have read a lot of posts, have trawled through a lot of Letting websites and I think I need to get back to Malta to do this rather than here in London. It looks so easy, but I'm beginning ... Read More
Why IS there so many places to rent in Malta by JMH71
Genuine question, I'm intrigued. Here in London, I could put my place up for rent NOW, and within a day, I could have the rent for a year and I'd pretty much guarantee someone offering me to buy it outright from me, cash. The market here ...
Hi Bernie, Thanks for your detailed reply, apologies for delay. We're looking at coming over in November this year. Part of me (the British in me I guess) is wanting plan this to the letter, however the more I read, the more I think I'm ... Read More

Being ripped off!? Not here... by nilonilonilo

Hi!! We've made out mind up, we're aiming for November this year with a 6 month stay and then we'll come back to decide our future. I think we'll concentrate on the Bugibba area, although we'd love Valletta/Sliema/Ta-Xbiex ... Read More

Hey cheers Bernie, much appreciated. We have an address here, in fact we're fortunate to be home owners in London, so that's not a problem to provide this information. As for the love living in London and sure Malta is the right place; to ... Read More
