Hi Smiler,

welcome to the forum.

Finding a job should definitly come first unless you have a lot of money and want to take the risk.

Can't help much on that with the info you have given.

Cheers
Ricky

What I'm PMing out is a link - out of respect for this website, I'm only sending out the link by PM, unless mods say otherwise. Out of respect for the other website, I don't want to copy the info here.

Hi helz,

welcome to the forum .

Drainage jobs in Malta ? Drains never work when it rains and nobody cares a damm !

The best scenario would be a job with the Water Service Corporation if you are willing to consider working for a Maltese salary and learning to speak Maltese.

Check out this link if you consider working for them:

Maybe your partner has another option lined up !

Cheers
Ricky
