Malta

Transport

Malta has comprehensive public transportation network and costs 1,5e day/6,5e week. Public transportation is never on time.

Roads are narrow, poorly planned and there are a lot of cars, so even short distances take often long time.

Hitch-hiking is quite poor (and pointless).

Connectivity

To use public wifi in most of the places you will need to provide a local cell phone number (McDonalds, Burger king and a lot of other cafes are like that).

Second hand shops

There are 3 quite cheap and good charity shops in Hamrun, on San Guzepp street. To find second-hand electronics and other goods there is a website maltapark.com

Equipment

If you want to buy camping equipment, you might want to go to Mosta to the Army Surplus shop.

Where to spend time

To meet locals, you generally have a few spots:

• Maori bar on Triq-il-Lanca (you go down the straight street and turn to Sant Bastjan when it ends, and then you will see a tunel, which you take to find yourself on the seacoast. Then you will see a couple of tiny buildings on the right, one of them is Maori)
• ĠUGAR - Hangout & Bar
• Wild Honey cafe
• Vilhena Band Club on Triq Sarria
• You also have to check if there are events in the St James Cavalier Centre for Creativity -- they have great music with (often) free entrance
• Also, there is always some activity on the FB community 'Film/Tv work Malta', you can help students with making their movies -- and it's a great way to meet locals

Places to explore

• Sa Maison Garden, Sa Malson -- just a nice tiny garden with a great view
• Generally there is a lot of abandoned forts left from the Brits. It's amazing to be there! You can break into Fort Ricasoli easily -- there is a path leading to the tunnels and weapons preserved from the older times. Fort Campbell is a bit further, but also a great place to be.

Corruption

• Daphne Caruana Galizia, Panama Papers journalist and "one-woman WikiLeaks," killed by car bomb
