Solo travel

I decided to go to St Julians because a friend recommended me the hostel she volunteered the previous summer. I was working on the reception exchanging for accommodation. I had the time of my life! Malta is so beautiful and the summer there is something you won't forget! I stood there for 2 months and I go anywhere at any time feeling super safe! I found a spot, which became my favorite one and it would take me forever to get there, still there were buses at late times like 8 pm. oh I miss those days!
