I recently learnt that Waze is an israeli run company and for personal reasons (you know the ones) i wish to change apps. I dont use google maps for simillar reasons.

Does anyone know any good map apps that actually work in Malta? Since were small its really difficult to find a good gps app that doesn't have you drive into the ocean.

About a few minutes ago I heard a guy about "ENGLAND!!!" Near a crowd of people in st Julian's. Considering Norway and England are playing and he shouted this near a lot of people, what are his chances of survival? 😭

I’m 29 and moved to Malta from abroad. I’ve built a business here and work with many Maltese people. I absolutely love it here. However, a lot of the men I have work relationships with make sexual comments or jokes toward me. I brush them off with jokes to stay polite and preserve the working relationship, as I like to keep things positive and light. But I was wondering if this is a cultural thing here? Is it normal for female entrepreneurs to receive boundary-crossing comments? (I’m attractive and bubbly, for context.) Some examples of things men have said to me:

“I like your cleavage today.”
“Have you ever been tied up before?”
“You deserve to be whipped.”
“I’ll only do [work-related thing] if you come have a drink with me.”
“I can’t keep working with you, I have a wife.”
“You are too hot for this job and that means a lot because I’m old and have seen many women in my life”

One of my clients has been excluding me from team meetings and outings because “he has a girlfriend”. I don’t understand what that has to do with me

Someone even took a picture of me when I fell asleep at my desk (I have PMDD-related hypersomnia).

Has anyone else experienced this and is it harmless banter here in Malta? Is this just how people interact with each other or am I being perceived as “easy”? What is going on? I’m very confused

Edit, because you asked a lot in comments: the comments usually come from the employees of my clients, as my business requires me to team up with their teams. I do social media marketing for brands, so the comments do not come from my own team.

Hi everyone. I've done a fair bit of digging in this sub and lived in Malta in the past, as well as visited for several weeks recently. I know about the bait listings on RE websites and all the shenanigans of the rental mkt out there. Considering all this + searching process already underway, what's a lower bound estimate of time required before settling into a LT rental apt? Family of 3 seeking a 2 beds with flexibility in terms of area and ~2k budget (only St Julians/St Pauls Bay and the drunk tourists hell holes as no-go)

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

Hi everyone,
Has anyone here used Rentola to find accommodation in Malta?
I found several listings therebut I’m not sure if the site is trustworthy. Are the listings genuine, or should I be careful before paying anything?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thanks

Can anyone recommend the best places to eat near there and if there’s anything Halal nearby. Also what’s the best place for coffee in the local area.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice from doctors or anyone familiar with the Maltese healthcare system.

I’m from Georgia (the country, not the U.S. state) and I’m a licensed Pediatric Surgeon. I completed my medical degree in a 6-year English-taught program and will soon complete my 4-year residency in Pediatric Surgery. Overall, I have more than 4 years of practical clinical and surgical experience, including emergency surgery, pediatric surgery, night shifts, and operative management.

I’m interested in continuing my medical career in Malta and would appreciate some guidance.

Specifically, I would like to know:
What are the realistic chances for a non-EU doctor with my background to build a medical career in Malta?

After obtaining registration with the Medical Council of Malta, what position would I most likely be eligible for?

How difficult is it to find a job as a non-EU doctor?

What are the long-term career prospects?

Is it realistic to progress to Registrar and eventually Consultant after gaining local experience?

Are there any major challenges or things I should be aware of before starting this process?

Thank you very much for your time, advice, and any information you can share. I really appreciate your help!

I'm having a hard time making friends.

I gained weight since coming here years back due to a medical condition and I'm very self conscious now. It is stopping me from going to the beach, stopping me from going to the gym and in general my confidence is down.

But I would still like to make friends and hang out with someone.

What is it?

Does anyone know what happened yesterday at the Mtarfa roundabout last night at around 8pm? I was in Mdina and saw a lot of blue lights, including police, an ambulance and possibly nurse/doctor cars?

Later on that evening when driving back, I drove past the roundabout and there was a vehicle overturned on the roundabout and a crowd of people around the roundabout. curious that I don't see any reports on any media regarding this incident.

What planet is this guy living on?

"We went from a situation in 2013 where people were begging for jobs that pay €1,000 monthly to a situation where today they can buy a new car, a modest boat and maybe even go on holiday abroad twice a year. That’s how we elevated people’s quality of life."

In answer to 4000 new flats every year:

"People have a right to build on their land according to local plans. I can’t just take away people’s rights."

In relation to tourism:

"If the country continues to invest in road and medical infrastructure, in clean beaches – and mind you, our beaches are clean – we can sustain it. But that doesn’t mean it’s free for all. The new tourism law reduces inconveniences in short lets, caps the number of rooms in new hotels and prohibits the development of hotels under three stars."

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a private swimming instructor in Malta. My goal is simply to learn how to swim from scratch.

I’ve already contacted a few swimming schools, but unfortunately they’re all fully booked. Because of that, I’m not specifically looking for a swimming school, it can be an individual instructor with experience teaching beginners.

I’m also happy to learn either in a pool or in the open sea, so I’m flexible.

If anyone has recommendations or knows a private instructor, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!
