Malta

Cheap is always a relative question. I arrived in Malta in 1993 and it was certainly very cheap then but supermarket prices now are actually higher than those in the UK. So I would say that food and drink from a supermarket are NOT cheap! However, eating and drinking in restaurants can still be good value - maybe the wages are very low! A main course plate of pasta can be had for around seven or eight euros - of course you have to be careful where you choose to eat!! St Julians can be upmarket but, as always, there are places where you can find good value - Bugibba, more of a downmarket tourist destination, has numerous good value restaurants.

Alcohol is generally very cheap especially beer (Malta has it's own local brews!)

No. Malta was up till 1964 a colony of the British Empire, Malta had a Queen. Is now a Republic.

We live a normal life just like anyone else. We study hard to achieve our goals, hang out with our friends, have a good time etc!

Andorra is bigger, at 181 square miles, compared to Malta which is 122 square miles.

no they come from arezzo in Italy and moved to Amercia

You can find from the candy/sweet shop in Naxxar. I am not 100% sure of the shop's name but it is a few doors away from Pizza Planet (opposite Naxxar swings) and the shop's walls are pink from the outside. It is a small shop but has every type of candy :) You can find small or large jawbreakers. If I am not mistaken, the small jawbreakers are EUR2.50 each and they taste amazing^^

Hope this helped :)

The most common jellyfish in Malta is Pelagia Noctiluca, known as the Mauve Stinger. It is pink and its bell is about 7-10cm in diameter. However their tentacles are hardly seen and can be metres long. I've encountered specimens with tenticles about 3 m long. However their sting, although painful, is not usually fatal, and scars usually fade away after about a week or two. I' ve also encountered species which look very similar to the Box Jellyfish. I do not know what they actually are , as they are not listed in books of Maltese Marine Species, however they are NOT the box jellyfish, as box jellyfish are the most dangerous jellyfish and their sting is fatal, however I got stung twice by this jellyfish, but I didn't die. The pain was not as bad as that of the Mauve Stinger. However I would advise that you don't dive with your eyes open. I used to do so , but I don't anymore as these jellyfish and their tentacles are transperant - very difficilut to be seen if you are diving with your eyes open. Stings from both jellyfish can be treated successfully with vinegar. Also, there are rumours that the Portuguese Man O war has entered the islands' waters. This has a very painful sting, much more painful than the mauve stinger, and it can be fatal if you are allergic to its venom. It is advised that you seek medical help immediately if you start having breathing problems after you are stung. In this case, you should not apply vinegar, it is said to worsen the sting. Some sites say it is adviseable to apply ice on it , others say warm water at 45degrees. As I have never been stung by such a jellyfish before, I do not know which is best. :D What I have to say is - you shouldn't discourage yourself from swimming in Maltese waters because of the jellyfish. I know I won't! Have a nice summer :D

It's a maltese tradition .It's common for us to eat rabbit especially during Sunday's dinner .Even if you go out to eat in a restaurant you'll find it in the menu! In maltese rabbit is called fenek and when someone is gonna eat a rabbit he says 'Fenkata'. Usually maltese people buy a life rabbit and kill him themselves and then they cook him! Usually a rabbit is cooked in a traditional way which is stewed or grilled with traditional herbs and baked potatoes.I know it might sound bizarre to other countries but every country has it's own food that other think it's disgusting! For example we never imagine to eat a frog or a kangaroo , for us that's insane!!

I have prof cause i live in Malta and here we don't have snakes and no poisononous animals.

The island of Malta has been hit by several tornadoes, some of these were very destructive. Most of the tornadoes that hit Malta are waterspouts that make landfall.

ON September 23, 1551 or 1556 a very powerful waterspout hit La Valletta. It killed 600 people and was likely an F4.

Recently weak tornadoes hit Malta (EF0-EF1), the strongest was an EF1/EF2.

Yes

Malta was bombed in WWII, because Germany was bombing them. If you want to know more about the bombing in Wikipedia type in Mosta Dome Bomb, which is the place Malta got bombed in WWII.
