Brita filtered water by Lildavid
My wife and I have just moved to Malta from the U.K. We know that bottled water is advisable for drinking, but would tap water that’s been filtered be ok to drink? I’m thinking of saving the pennies as well as all that plastic..
We got ourselves a little filter system (https://tappwater.mt/) this summer and we could not be happier. You just attach it to your tap and with one easy move you switch to super clean and tasty water. The filter needs to be changed every 3 months ... Read More
Raising kids in Malta by Priscilla
Hello everyone, How is raising kids in Malta different from raising kids in your home country? What are the activities that your kids seem to enjoy the most in Malta? Do you feel that the country is "family-friendly"? Do you recommend ...
I think the horrible quality of air, lack of greenery, nature and forests, dirty streets and ignorant drivers on the road make Malta an extremely unsuitable place to have kids. It's okay for young people who want to have fun and party, and old ... Read More
When do the fireworks end? by felinefine81
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 ...
Totally agreed regarding spending the summers elsewhere in Europe if possible. Luckily I work from home (computer) and I am from colder part of Europe, so I come here for the summer, enjoy lots of nature, cooler weather, less noise and traffic, and ... Read More
How do you solve a problem with mosquitoes? :) by SmallT.
Hi all! Who knows WHY in Malta on the windows is no mosquito nets? How do you solve a problem with mosquitoes?
We got two types of screens for doors and windows last May, didn't cost much at all, but can't remember the exact price at the moment. If you're interested, I can check for you. The guy did superb job as well. Read More
Sunbed tanning in Malta
Hi, does anyone know if there is any indoor tanning near St. Paul's Bay? Or as close to it as possible? At least closer than Sliema or Valletta. There was a place I went to but unfortunately they closed down, and I haven't had any luck ... Read More

Cool, thanks. But that's what I have been wondering which application form should I fill? I would have applied for residency months ago, but I don't seem to fall under any category. Am I self-employed? Since I don't work for a local ... Read More

I found the control card application online and it does say on there that if I don't have a Maltese ID-card, passport number is to be used. So I guess the doctor just didn't know? :/ Read More

Hi! Okay, so it's a sure thing that I don't need to apply for e-residency or local ID card in order to apply for the white card? And all I have to do is have a doctor fill the application and sign it? Because the doctor I went to told me ... Read More
