It's a PLEASURE , I seen a lot of what you did for us EMIGRANTS , I been away 54 years now , & only went back as holiday 7 times , & 1 time to stay there, but did not work for me ,cause of work situation , I love MALTA as a holiday. & very close to EUROPE places to visit. life if different , good, but living got too expensive for the wages they get , Housing got out of reach to buy for someone who did not already had a his own place to sell & buy. They do well , but New Ones , I feel sorry for them. IT'S Got flooded by foreigners, Than can well afford to buy property, & kept prices SKY ROKETING from 1990'S that happened , & if you been there ,that long , You know too well , but MALTA is full of HISTORY , & nice country for holiday , and those who lived their lives in there, Wish all the best , & KEEP Enjoying your stay there , & THANK YOU

Yes Charlie , I had some plans to go one day ..Would be fun to have a walk around and find out all the secrets
Great videos Steve. Thanks for sharing them. Its nice to see the places where I used to live for a bit of nostalgia!
Lovely video, thank you Steve. So nice to see the old houses that have been renovated and the villages being kept alive. The new homes were nice too and no high rise on that part of the island. The garden and viewing platform would be wonderful in the summer when you are really needing a cooling wind.
Thank you sheila , Yes I never been before and never knew what to expect ..But I will go back again !!
HELLO Sheila Evens, Thanks for the Surprise of you commented, this is Charlie your friend on F/BK. Just like me, I love all what STEVE show us in MALTA , makes us feel we are there, since it's too far for us to go all the way from AUSTRALIA , THANKS & ALL the BEST Sheila Evens . From Charlie Delia,
@@charlied2393 Hi Charlie, I like Steve's videos very much, away from the usual places and often out in the countryside that tourists would seldom find.
Super
I have wonderful memories of celebrating Festa in Zurrieq in 2018 . I was always enjoy your " lost in" videos Steve. But I wasn't expecting how beautiful that garden and view were going to be. Looking out towards Filfla and sun reflecting off the the sea was truly magical. Thank you once again for sharing beautiful Malta with us x

Another fantastic video, the garden park looks great, amazing views, worth a visit. Thanks Steve
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank You For The Walk & The Fantastic Views I needed A Little Sun There xx
Glad you enjoyed it
@@EnglishmaninMalta Always x
Very Beautiful 😻 thanks 🙏 Steve. That is what I love ❤️ open space
Glad you like it!
Hi Steve !!
My husband and I watched all your videos, and it is a great escape, especially your summer videos. I love your intros, with my favourite one being used around 4 years ago, for example, in the scrambled eggs cooking video. 😍
Thank you for the escapes.
Awesome! Thank you!
Well you said it's windy , hence the windmills! lol
I love it over there ..Have made some more plans to cover that area
@@EnglishmaninMalta
If we happen to meet, (I live at Żurrieq) we have A Cick!
Congratulations on another wonderful share! Looking forward to coming back to see you again for more great content. Take care dear friend, Greetings !
Thank you! You too!
That was quite a walk but I enjoyed every minute of it! I love exploring the lesser known towns and villages. I feel like they are the real Malta 🥰
The plane crash is the one I told you about before. I sent you some photos on Instagram. They have a memorial for it at the National Arboretum in Burton-upon-Trent. I will share some photos of it on the Holiday Malta page.
The gardens and playground look lovely. The view from up there is phenomenal! 😍 Well worth a visit when we are next over.
Thanks for taking the time to show us Steve 😃👍🏼
Oh ok Rachel thanks forgot about this not think its the same. Yes please post it on the group and make reference to the video, would l9ve that ..thank you x
No problem Steve, just uploaded a small post now with reference to your video too 😁 x
I really enjoyed that video so much. Zurrieq is an area i have not been to in Malta. The view from the top from the gardens is was just amazing on the video. Thank you making this video.
Hi Bobby, actually you were already in Zurrieq when you & Dad met Steve at " Wied Iz-Zurrieq" but not the actual village of Zurrieq just up the road.Take care my friend. Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 🇪🇺©.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh ..Do not let the mayor hear you say that !! Wied iz Zurrieq is in Qrendi
@@EnglishmaninMalta We go by "History & Geography " not local politics 😂 Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 🇪🇺 ©.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
nice views from the garden. looking forward for part 2.
Thanks 👍
What brilliant views well worth the walk👍👍
It really is!
Nice that son. Definitely going up. Er I've been reliabily informed that a gibjun where you saw the mame of the street was some sort of water tank or tower. I'm guessing it's been refurbished and supplies all the small holdings and maybe the gardens. Great job lad!
Thanks for the info ..yes I found out later that tower i filmed had something to do with it !!
What a Beautiful place and view Malta i wish to visit one day
Thanks for visiting
hi steve, what a wonderful long video to wake up to on a dull wet saturday morning in b'mouth, this one is lot more special to me personally as i was born there and baptised in the main parish church, all my uncles lived there within 5 to 10 minutes of each other, but i was brought up in hamrun, and was going backward & forward with my mother up to my teenage years to see the grandparents as well as the rest of all the uncles, aunties and cousins, again you walked all where i did & play as young boy, the gibjun garden is fantastic, but of course was never like that, mainly because it was a very long time ago, but the views are the same with filfla at the back standing all alone, bye 4 now & thanks a lot it's 10 out of 10 from me for this one, i wonder when is your birthday ? see you soon.
Yes more to come from that area !! very interesting
Hi Steve..thanks for visiting Zurrieq..we are hoping to move their soon right by Gibjun...its amazing at night..the refection of the moon on Filfla and the sea!! Hope to meet up with you when we are there🤞
Sounds great! must go at night
Love your videos, you have any videos of Zijtun?
Love to do a lost in !! one day !! you have any contact in the church or maybe anyone show me around ..I have tried to contact the council many times ..But seems they are not interested giving me any info ..Can you help ??
Nice video of Zurrieq,old streets & passages between look nice& quaint, nice park& lovely views from there, nice to see fruit& veg van along the way selling stuff.we didn’t know there was a plane crash in that area way back, poor lads! Ps we liked your lottery joke!
I was told about the plane ..but was unsure where ...interesting info
Steve that’s a great video
Thank you David
Brilliant Steve , as always.
Thank you sammy
Brilliant video I was wondering if you would do a lost in
Thank you Max
What a beautiful park/garden/and vantage point. Well worth your long walk to it. Will definitely make a visit to it when things get better. Stay safe Steve.
Thanks
HI STEVE IT'S ME AGAIN WATCHED IT THIS SATURDAY AFTER DINNER.I SEE THERE WERE A LOT OF PLACES IN THE GARDEN WHERE THERE WAS IMFORMATION ABOUT THEM I MYSELF WANT TO MENTION FIFLA AS I WAS ONE OF THE RA MEN WHO TOOK PART IN FIRING AT IT WITH OUR HAA GUNS IN 1958.CHEERS FROM YOUR WELSHMAN IN MALTA.
Wonder how many bomb are over on that island ??
Hi Steve
Other great lost in ? Video.And a 44mins epic. Great watching those 44+ mins videos. Keep them coming.
Thanks 👍 Was a long one this week ....I will have to start making a more intermissions ...lol 😁
I think in Malta there are many of these towns which are really underrated
You have to ask yourself 'by whom'? I mean in Malta you can’t expect a view unless you’re on the coast and you can hardly expect a garden; just a yard really. So if you’re fine with that, as is the case with tourists because they don’t have to live there thats fine, but people with a choice don’t want to feel like sardines. Malta is excellent value for a sunny holiday spent enjoying best of history, architecture and food and sea but to live there as compares to abroad in a detached house you need serious money.
Yes..zurrieq is ancient..napoleon bonapart also stayed in zurrieq..its quieter but windy but i like it that way. Gibjun is lovely in the evening great views of the sea and filfla and firework displays from other villages.
Yes it's true Max
Sounds great ..Must go at night
I don't really see what you are trying to get at mannagga with max comment
Fantastic! What a beautiful quiet place with lots of traditional buildings 😍 Stunning views from the park (well worth the hike to get there but I always think about you having to trek back to the car 😮) I love windmills, such interesting buildings 😍 Love the bloopers at the end 😂😂😂
Thank you so much ..i stopped to do a food video on the way ....My bloopers are not as good as yours 😋😘😘😘
Englishman lost in Malta 😂 But wow! Was it worth it? YES!!! The views from the garden were fantastic, will definitely be visiting Zurrieq and bringing my binoculars so I don't miss a thing. The wind didn't affect your mike, couldn't hear a thing, and the blossom could be cherry blossom? Thanks for sharing Steve, another great video showing the little gems of Malta ❤ 🇲🇹 👍
I agree, that looks like a cherry blossom to me. I had one in our garden in south Lincolnshire which we lost two years ago. Steve’s made me feel a bit homesick now, bless him.
Glad you enjoyed it!
It's very beautiful
Another brilliant video Steve 👍 stunning views , will definitely be there one early evening as the sun sets , great walk . Cheers Steve keeping us all going with your videos . Bloopers 🤣🤣👍
Thanks 👍
I really enjoyed this video Steve! I love your walks around villages, I love the architecture and the houses, that special Maltese style.I shared this video with my dear friend who lives in Malta, but, her hometown was Zurrieq.I am sure she will really like it.Thanks again Steve for these videos. Frida from Sydney Australia.
Many thanks!
That was a belting video and a lovely way to start the day. The views from the garden are fantastic.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice video 📸
Thanks for visiting
That was awesome, love the scenery from that big garden......
Thank you Steve
So nice of you
I was in that video
Please look for Islington House on De Melo st . Not sure if I spelt it correctly
It is my cousins house Joe Saliba is his name ❤
Maybe next time I am over that way !!
You take your life into your own hands with all the traffic coming and going in all directions. Its a nice walk with lovely views xx
Oh Gaynor you get used to it
Wow the local council are very nice
Yes this guy was so very helpful...Not many are !!
That was a really nice walk Steve, another one for us to do when we come to Malta again, cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it
Another success Steve , keep`em coming .
Thanks, will do!
Very nice walking around the city, it sure one of the town to find old school looking house
Brilliant video Steve with lovely views thank you for sharing this with us all
Yes, thanks
so welcome
I live in malta
Thanks for the heart
Loved that house in the middle of the two streets at about 9 minutes. Beautiful town
Yes it was! Many old houses in that villages one of the oldest
Love it
Thank you
Steve, I have to admit I feel humbled that I commented too soon half way through your video before you reached the Water Well Garden (Gibjun) section, when I realised what an awesome job the authorities have done there. It makes me understand now why my college mates (M.C.A.S.T.) back then who lived there were so proud of it and said it was underrated compared to the northeast area like Mellieha. I have to visit again now for sure. 👍 🇲🇹🏴 🇬🇧
No worries! Yes What the locals tell me its been transformed into a beautiful area
Cool channel man!
Thank you
Awesome
Thank you
i lived in main street , mother saw that plane in the sky before it crashed , she was on the roof hanging the laundry, as she was looking at that plane she shouted to dad that a plane was going crazy, a few minutes later it crashed , not far from our field.
Wow...I bet it was shocking 🤯
I love how all the houses have names in Malta. It’s one out of a million things I thought was so nice :)
Yes so very different ..sometimes the couples names put together ??
Cherry blossom 😀
It's so beautiful
Where is this place near in malta. Or where do u head for to get there. Looks very nice
Its near the blue grotto ,
Nice cat 🐱
😱
We always stay at St Paul's or near St Paul's. Is this place near there then
It's far away from st paul's bay
Your are a lucky guy, enjoy. When you have something and then you lose it that is when you realize what you had.
so true !!
Hi Steve, thanks for another interesting video. Nice to see you wear a mask. Can you explain please at 1.00 to 1.10 there is a disabled parking sign that says Communal. Can you clarify if a disabled parking badge in Malta can be used across the whole island or are there restrictions, i.e. why 'Communal'? Thanks
Communal means anyone with a badge can park in that space , But we also have disabled parking with a registration number on it, Which is paid for by that individual and only they are allowed to park in that space ,if you have a badge you can park in any disabled space , in any part of the Maltese islands other than as i said with a registration number on it ,
@@EnglishmaninMalta Thank you, that clarifies it for me when I visit again. 👍
Welcome to my town XD
its so beautiful and historic buildings
That truck was going so fast in a narrow streets, he should slow down
Some are very crazy 🤪
Why is Trekking written with a double 'k' but Traveling with one 'l'. Does that need correcting?
Cuz thats the correct way to spell them ?? Why you know different??
@@EnglishmaninMalta Well yes. Notice you spell 'Spelling' with a double 'l' too. Ask Siri to spell it for you. I’m not trying to be funny, I just wondered if it was intentional as when Slade pop group used to play around with letters for a valid reason, that’s all.
That is how it should be open space all over Malta 🇲🇹 not putting more buildings because Malta is small
Can not stop progress
