Malta was not a place I expected to love. My partner went there on their own excursion throughout Europe, and a year and some change later, we went back together with my mom. It’s such a stunning country with a lot to offer–from the history to the views–it’s a place that’s got a little something for everyone and one I’m thankful to have visited.

P.S. the airport lounge is great. Go there if you have Priority Pass.
