Malta - my 70th visited country! ( 29/09/2017 )

Early fall vacation this year and my family and I decided to extend the summer for a visit to the Mediterranean island of Malta. This was my 70th country to be visited and a country which have been in the planning phase for several years. Now finally the time was right for a visit but unfortunately a little too late to see the famous landmark of Azure Window on the nearby island of Gozo. This famous attraction collapsed earlier this year after a storm which made the pillar to collapse after several years of erosion.

Apart from a visit to Gozo there is also a lot other interesting things to see on the main island. Malta is a really small island and one of the most dense populated areas of the world. Everything is is within a short drive but the traffic could be intense and the road network quality not the always the best but it's still worth to rent a car to explore the island further. More blog post of Malta will follow during the fall!
