No ?
No problem .. I can give you some idea about place and advise you definitely go there !
I went there for holidays . Kinda mad trip . I bought flight ticket 24 hours before actual trip and booked hostel in St. Julian`s for 4 days . Looked in Google maps directions from airport to hostel . I went on trip all by myself (Young female ) , caring only one small handbag . ( Only few clothes , tiny size hygiene things - that i could use them and throw them away, and few electronic `s ) I looked forward to spend 8 days for first time in Malta and don`t use any mobile phones , tv , emails ... to maximize my good time .Together spent money on 8 days (Including flights and hostel , hotel ) was around 700 - 800 Euro .
- 1st day :
I asked for directions . Bus went to Valleta - to main bus station . From where you could get bus anywhere .
1 . Malta bus picture.
2. Hostel room .
Bus(Picture 1) was in bad condition with open door .
One bus trip was 47 cent .Seemed weird price ,because not much people would bother to ask 3 cent back ( Tip for driver ).
From Valletta i found bus to Sliema . From there i wondered around and by asking directions every second person i got to right place . I found street where my hostel should be - But there was none ! Only thing i saw instead of hostel was some restaurant called " Amigos " . Then there i was . tired , smelly , hungry , with feet in pain and no hostel .
When i asked for hostel - nobody seemed to know place . 2 hours later i succeed . Turn out that hostel was on top of the restaurant - and someone forgot to put out sign . I was not very happy about it , but i did not said a word.Just slowly walked to second floor rooms .
Hostel room was fine . 4 beds in room , small night stands next to each bed . one bathroom shared for one room in corridor .And too less towels(Picture 2) . Only 2 tiny towels which seemed that been used for years . tv was not working , when i asked staff to fix it - looked like that nobody know how . As result i had no music in room.
Soon after i settle in - my roommate moved in -Female , around 24 , from Germany .
She was nice person , with bad English . And my German is terrible . We tried to communicate half English , half with signs . We both were alone . We decided to go for swim . We went to nearest rocky beach .That was first and only beach which one i saw on way to hostel and i was hoping for fine beach and great swim . But as closer i walked - more clearly i could see that i was wrong. Everywhere was rock`s , huge wave `s and jellyfish (Picture 4).When i tried to step in water i hurt my legs on rocks . And German girl was not happy either . Our swim was finished in 10minutes . Very upset and in pain we walked back and on the way had good fun about our mad swim .
Back at hostel ( around 8pm ) we decided to go for dinner ( As we got discount in 1st floor restaurant ) .
Meal was tasty. i had starter : potatoes filled with cheese and then Greek salad ,drink . For all my meal and drink i paid around 12 Euro - which is happy price .After dinner i was just sitting all by myself on balcony and having my ice-cream and cigarette .German girl was sleeping.I was looking around .... Streets were filled with tourists and few locals .(Picture 3).. People were loud and crazy . Across my balcony was other building balcony was some party and guys was drinking on balcony . It was weird feeling . They were parting around 200 m from me ( Maybe more far- not sure), but they didn't seem bothered that someone is watching them . Around 1 am i still could not fall a sleep and went downstairs to see whats going on . There i had chat with guy from Egypt who was working there . He was telling me about places - " Must see" . After hour long chat i went to sleep . Noise from street was till 5 am ...
3.view from balcony.
4.rocky beach ( Picture from Google . ) Just similar beach .but not the same . First day - promising !
First day done - 7 to go !
