IslandMan ·
Hello F-car, people mainly use their cars to get around, which is a pity as the roads are not the best and there are far too many cars for the roads to cope with.

Although the Maltese have their own language, English is widely spoken and visitors get by without problems. Many locals also speak Italian (them being our...

Sliema Waterfront I am now a permanent resident of the country, and, while I may seem biased towards it, it’s...

Loved St Agustin in Gran Canaria. Stayed right on the water at the Don Gregory. Very little to no wet weather and lots of sunshine. Lots to explore on the island and wonderful cuisine. One other island I'd like to add to the list is Martinique because of the lush tropical parks, wildlife, excellent cuisine, and the volcano Mont Pelee.
