Hi 👋 I’m a Digital Nomad Living in the EU and I share my Experiences here. Welcome aboard 😊
Being a resident in the Schengen region gives me access to travel and experience the 27 member countries in the travel area and my life has been “fuller” for it.
I created this channel to share my thoughts and experiences, so you can have an idea of what living and traveling within the EU really is, especially for black expats.
So here are some topics I intend to cover;
EU travel guide/tips
Food/Living conditions
Remote vs Hybrid working
Travel & European Architecture
History & Religion
Expat integration into communities
So whether you’re of African decent, or non-African interested in learning how I see the world, or a fellow expat living far from home, you’re welcome to subscribe, stick around, leave comments (so we can learn a thing or two from one another), and share any content that resonates with you.
Until I see you in one of my videos,
Bye for now

Our Last Days Living in Malta 🇲🇹 | Moving from Malta #malta #cominoisland #bluelagoonmalta
In this video I share some of our favorite last moments living in Malta as a family of 3.
We visited the three cities, blue lagoon Comino, and the St. Paul’s island. These iconic places are worth visiting even though you have a few days travel itinerary and I absolutely recommend.

I had a little trouble with the law 15 years ago , 7 years cleared on dbs check uk, do i need to disclose this. Plenty of proof of being a good citizen since, i had a mental breakdown 15 years ago and got arrested. Pleasure listening to the information you give, thank you 😊
U don run leave us
Lovely views 😍 I'm sure you'll miss Malta 🥹

Can you share why you left Malta ?

Hi! I’m considering moving to Malta for remote work, but I’m concerned about power outages or internet stability. Have you experienced any issues, and do you think Malta is reliable for remote work?
@@wanderlisavlog I’ve worked remotely throughout my stay in Malta and internet stability has been excellent. There have been a few power outages in some areas that got restored soon enough. I think working remotely in Malta is just great.
I am a Nigerian and I live and Study in France, I am coming to Malta for an Internship, How can I get a student accommodation, any advice please?
@@AnnabelAhamefula Hi there, unfortunately I don’t know much about student accommodations. I think it’s best you contact the school for availability, or reach out to fellow students.
Thank you so much🌹

Its wonderful

I love you ma
Hi Oyi, I'm here in Malta (Bugibba) and a hairstylist. You can book me sometime for your beautiful but affordable Ghana braids.
Its a dump i came back from there yesterday i was shocked at how many non white immigrants live there its about 30 percent of the population.it feels like a cross between Africa and India in some parts.i thought Britain was bad enough but Malta has shocked me.Not a place for a holiday and sadly it will get worse
I understand you. I was born in Malta a long time ago. My parents immigrated to Australia which is now my country. In a tiny place like Malta having all those aliens in your face all the time with no where to get away from them would be unbearable for me. The woman talks about speaking English and she can't speak English properly, her accent is bearly understandable. It's a bad joke, the daughter should be speaking Igbo or Yoruba not English. Eventually there will be attacks in Malta, and I won't care at all.
what about job opportunities

Great to hear Oyi. I'm seriously considering moving to Gozo. I'm non EU citizen, but i believe some of the other visa's would apply to me. ty 4 vid.

People often miss out the drawbacks: punishing heat and humidity in the summer, traffic jams, terrible roads, resentful locals, over-development ruining the towns and coastline, pollution, low wages, animal cruelty often tolerated, lots of red tape hassle for TCNs.... for starters!
@@AnnabelleJARankin Oh yes, I did a previous video on that already and covered most of these. This video was to provide a balanced perspective as there are pros and cons of living anywhere. No matter how terrible the drawbacks are, there is always a brighter side.
@@OyisCorner I have never encountered so much rudeness as I have here. 'Go back to your own country' is commonly snapped at us, and many landlords act unscrupulously - over-charging for heating and lighting to people who don't know yet about ARMS, keeping deposits for no reason and not doing basic repairs.
@@AnnabelleJARankin Oh wow, my experience with landlords has been the complete opposite. As a matter of fact my “Maltese” house owner was very helpful during our residency renewal and kept telling whoever was in charge the “we were the best tenants she’s ever had” . She sends us the ARMs bill when it comes in and we pay the exact amount. I’m sorry about your experience, I have also encountered rude Maltese bolt drivers too and I understand what you mean. Malta is definitely not paradise but like anywhere else, it has a few good sides.
@@OyisCorner I know 2 separate people who were told after a year their bill was 1,000 euros (ARMS). Both went to solicitors and of course the ARMS bill never materialised.... their landlords lied. Both were new to the island so did not know about ARMS but knew that the amount was outrageous!
Ok

@@graceebong9390 Thank you my personal person for constant support ❤️
Interesting. I am Maltese or I was up to 3 y.o, I am really Australian. I look at what's happening in Malta every now and then. My feelings is that there are too many foreigners in Malta who are there to get a Maltese E.U passport, so they can go and live in Germany or the U.K. Malta is a stepping stone. It is like New Zealand, foreigners go there, get citizenship to New Zealand after 2 years, and immediately hop on a plane to Australia. People from NZ can live and work in Australia, no restrictions. I cannot speak Maltese, I understand some of the language, but I know Maltese are proud of their language even if it's the result of foreign occupiers of the Muslim religion, people from North Africa near Tunisia. If you plan to stay in Malta and not leave to some E.U country, you should try to learn some Maltese. The Maltese people won't accept you if you don't, sure they are polite to you but you will be forever a barrani. There are lots of Africans in Australia mostly South Sudanese, an attractive Nilotic people with near black skins, much darker than yours. If you meet a Maltese person with the surname Sant, their ancestor was an African woman, a freed slave, she had 5 children by her owner. Her name was Antonia Sancti.
@@Ponto-zv9vf Hi there, nice to hear from you. Yes there are lots of foreigners in Malta at the moment, but I do not think their aim is to get the Maltese passport, and even if it were, it’s not easy to get. As a matter of fact, an immigration lawyer confirmed it can take up to 18-20 years to naturalize. The reason why a lot of people leave Malta for the UK or Germany or other EU countries is because the Maltese government doesn’t encourage long stays on the island. So instead waiting to get a 48 hours notice to leave, or loose your job, people always look for an alternative if they want to remain in the EU.
Thnk you ss.... Planning to come to Malta January... Very informative

Not many cons. For that reason getting permenant residence is not easy. If you're not an EU citizen I suggest you seek legal advice from an expert.

So can also visit quiet gardens like San Anton’s if you’d not mind the outdoors. I’m not near the St Paul’s Bay Area, I currently live close to the south 😊
