WELCOME

This blog is dedicated to Malta - my island home. My aim is not to bore you with history but to share my thoughts and a few facts together with a photo or two. For a more in -depth background of the island please go here. The purpose of this blog is not to point out the short-comings of the island. There are plenty that do that already. My wish is to show you the beauty of an island at the cross roads of the Mediterranean, a melting pot of history; a place where fact and fiction are sometimes fused to create unique myths and legends; a country that has been conquered so many times that our culture is a mish mesh of the lands that surround us and of lands far away. I confess that my greatest desire is to make you fall in love with this tiny enchanting island.

  3. Greetings from Hong Kong! I came across your blog when I was searching for Maltese door knockers, and I immediately love your blog. The photos are amazing and your writing is beautiful (I wish I could write so beautifully... as English is not my mother tongue). I just came back from a holiday in Malta, and I have to confess that I've fallen in love with your country. I would like to know more about its history, stories and legends. I will come back to your blog later and find out more :) Please keep on writing, thanks for sharing!
