Today saw us dodging cars whilst pushing a broken down car up a very busy highway. Just another day apartment hunting in Malta.
We met the most hard working and friendliest letting agent in the world today. He picked us up from our hotel and first of all handed out the Cadbury chocolate finger biscuits, this man had my vote by now.
Whilst driving us around to see several apartments we were on the highway when he spotted a broken down car on the side of the road with two men attempting to push it. The letting agent did not hesitate in pulling up and we all got out to help push the car up the highway. This you may think is no big feat, unless of course you have experienced the crazy Maltese drivers. It seemed to make no difference that there was soft human bodies on the outside of the metal shell of the car they still swerved that close to us that we were lucky we did not lose any skin. We then had to walk back down the highway to get our car!
The day did end in success however when we found an apartment. It was just what we were looking for and even had sea views- result!
