Living in Malta - Difference Between City Life and Village Life

- Living in Malta, this is the difference between City life and Village life. I have created this video to show you 2 sides of Malta, one is living in a city which is close to all restaurants, bars, malls, connections around Malta. However the cons of living in Malta in the central area is the constant noise and construction works. From the other side we have Zurrieq, a village in Malta that is predominantly with local people. This side of Malta is beautiful, it is very quite and with less construction. I made a choice to buy an apartment in Zurrieq and its the best decision i made.

Fun fact: This guy is not even maltese and is more enthusiastic about Malta than us maltese people ourself, no maltese person does this type of cool videos
and us Maltese are constantly watching him..
THE REASON BEING : It takes an articulate "outsider", Alex in this case, to as they say (🇬🇧), "separate the wheat from the chaff" whilst NOT wearing "rose coloured glasses". There's your answer Karl.
Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Thanks buddy❤ im glad that you find my videos interesting
As a Maltese person who loves Malta, I agree
he is such a good representative and spokes person for your amazing country, you guys need to protect him at all costs!
I'm a Zurrieq local and unfortunately not a lot of people even mention Zurrieq or knowing where it is (yes even Maltese people barely know where it is or even visited Zurrieq). Thank you for showing appreciation and love for my village .
Im thinking to rent apartment in Zurrieq, but can you tell me if I can find jobs in hospitality, like restaurants bars ? How is salary approximately ? I speak only English as well, is it gonna be a problem ?
Zurrieq is the most beautiful village in Malta for me, the charm that Zurrieq has is unique, just seeing the locals soaking the sun at the square and gathering for tea in the nearby bars😍majestic
Alex reminds us of Malta, and Malta reminds us of Alex! You are fantastic, dear Alex! Stay safe! 🇲🇰🇹🇷🇲🇹
Im sending you a big friendly hug
Hi I am Australian, Maltese living in Australia & today we showed my Maltese parents your videos. We all loved watching your videos 🥰🥰
How sweet, i am sending much love to the entire family❤️
My mother is originally from Zurrieq and it makes me proud of the fact that I spent most of my childhood days here. I'm so glad you love Zurrieq. It's definitely one of the best places in Malta and every year, I reunite with all my family to go celebrate the Santa Katarina festa
Hi Christine ❤️thank you very much for sharing this ! I am sending you and your mama a biiiiiiiiig hug ❤️
@@AlexinMalta awwww that is very kind of you 😍😍
When myself and my wife were moving to Malta last year we were considering to live in Zurrieq only. So, we moved and we love living our lives here.
Alex, thanks for another great video ✌ Your channel is my homepage in my Chrome browser 🙃
And im glad you are here😇 ill get you a Kinnie for that
I am a Maltese National and considering purchasing a home in Malta. I find your videos very informative and well broken down. Thank you Alex.
I visit Zurrieq often: it is quiet, just 20min walk to the Sea(Blue Grotto), there are at least 3 fish shops: Aragosta Fishshop, Mareblu Gourmet Fish Shop and La Spigola Fish Shop Zurrieq.
Thank you for sharing this. Im glad you like it 🤗
I’ve mentioned this on another video from Alex, but I’ll say it again, Alex is a wonderful ambassador for all things Malta!
I’m definitely coming for a visit.
Big hugs from Scotland!👍🏼🙂
Big hugs to you my friend❤️
I'm already in Malta... why do I keep watching these?
Oh yeah, because they're fun and informative. Carry on.
Awww❤ thank you so much. Im glad you are still watching my videos
I’m already in Malta too but I keep waiting Alex videos too👍 awesome🎉
@@ariel5977 i ask one question for you can u solve it? ?
I would choose a traditional house in the countryside! Gorgeous! I’m heading back to St Paul’s Bay on Wednesday for another week holiday. I was there in December. I really like it there. Much more quiet than Sliema area.
If I win the lottery, I’m going to buy a farm on Gozo. Super quiet away from everyone. Just me and the dogs. I love your videos Alex. Thanks for all the hard work you do to show us Malta.
Thank you so much! If you win the lottery and get the farm in Gozo i will be your weekly guest for BBQ 🤗 i love Gozo, im going there next week
@@AlexinMalta Hi Alex. Your videos are tremendous. I didn’t know so many nice places existed in Malta. If you feel like it how about doing a detailed video of Balzan from Birkirkara boundary, Main Str to Safi. There doesn’t seem to be much on Balzan on you tube. Many thanks.
Gozo is not quiet anymore, lived here 10 years and it is now not a lot different to many parts of Malta!
Lived in Zurrieq my whole life, got married June of last year and still living in Zurrieq (husband from Fgura), we both just love it here so peaceful and recently with all the establishments and the internet we rarely need to travel to the North, which honestly we try to avoid 😁 Thanks for showing my road Alex, simply beautiful ❤️
Hello neighbor :) please say hi if you see me around, i walk a lot around Zurrieq daily
enjoy your home in Zurrieq Alex!. I'm over in Gozo & love it. 11,000 people in Zurrieq...that's enormous!!
Next week im in Gozo :)
I was working in Gzira for 3 month. It's been an honor to see this video! And music.
I agree
Lived on Gozo in Qala a few years ago for a year and a half and loved it! Not as crazy as Malta.
True
I love this channel and Alex. Thank you Alex. He is always giving people good and nice information. He is always positive and full of joy. Take care Alex. Have a lovely week.
Alex is sending you a big hug, love and positive energy ❤️
Watching Alex makes me want to visit Malta as soon as I'm able to. Such a beautiful country and I look forward to the day I can visit. Until then, I shall live vicariously through Alex!
I'm in the same position, I've live in Malta for 8 years, lived in a few places. Some I've loved, some I've hated.
I knew Zurrieq a little having lived near by, but it wasn't until I ran their 2019 Half Marathon until I fell in love with the place.
Like most small towns and villages, Zurrieq is beautiful. But the people I meet and talk to that day, made it my only choice for where to make my home.
Hello Neighboor! What a nice comment to read, im glad you are loving Zurrieq, honestly i dont see myself living elsewhere, oh no, Qrendi would be my second choice :)
@@AlexinMalta For me, my second choice was Siggiewi. I lived there for a couple of year after moving from Luton in the UK.
2 years in Siggiewi undid the damage that 20 years in that insanity put on my sole.
It would be cool to meet up some time and compare notes on being an expat in Malta. :) as we're now locals.
I love the idea of comparison between city life & village life. Great content as usual. Thanks Alex
Excellent very informative video. I totally agree with you. I am a Maltese person living in Australia and born in Siggiewi. Would love to buy something small in Siggiewi, Zurrieq or Haz Zebbug areas. Very beautiful area,
You would not do a mistake if you buy a property there :)
Loved this video so much! I'm in Australia, but will share it with some relatives who live in Zurrieq, I'm sure they will love what you said about their town! Have always visited there when in malta, very special area.
Lovely❤ Oh how I wish I could go there and meet you there giod friend Alex. You habe a good content you kkiw. God bless you 🙏
Nice vlog alex you always giving people nice information about malta keep it up..
Amazing video to see, thanks buddy for sharing all this info. I´ll be arriving to the island very soon and your videos were essentials for me to make the final decision. Very realistic and helpful 👌
Im glad ❤️i wish you good luck, say hi if you see me
Great video Alex, especially with a bit of rain for a change 🤣 Perhaps compare M & M (Mosta & Melieha)
The rain didnt stop me to film🤣 you should have seen me holding my hairstyle😂Mosta vs Mellieha hmmm interesting
Pls go to Fgura sometimes!!! I know its nothing there basically, but it was the city I lived for a year, and I just miss it!! Any anyways its local, cheaper, and quite good transportation wise, so it could be a good video topic about affordable living when choosing a city in malta!!! :D
Good man! Thank you for this, i think this is a very good topic and honestly i havent been to Fgura yet
@@AlexinMalta hey! Thanks for the answer, and i’m glad if you like the idea! So if you will have a video about tips for expats where to live in Malta, you can include it! Or just check it out, and maybe you will have some video idea about it! Anyways I’ll keep watching your vids , it became a kind of addiction now 🙈😅
Thanks for the video
Thank you for watching
Such a fun video as always 🥰 Would love to see a video just on Zurrieq. My dad lived and worked there when he was young and has the same opinion as you about the place and people 🙂
Thank you Diane ❤️i did a video of Zurrieq only, here is the link: ruclips.net/video/PHgBd1gTuIg/видео.html
@@AlexinMalta thanks so much Alex ♡
amazing vid as always alex xxx one of my fav spots too x
I arrived in Malta 3 weeks ago and I’m renting a 2 bedroom flat in Buggiba now.
I myself lived in central Doha, Qatar with all the super tall high rises for 4 years after 12midnight Doha is very silent already
I can already say that Malta is a party place with all those pubs in every street corner for a very tiny country
Alex this video is amazing.
Alex here is Pastor Samuel kindly makes separate videos of these both cities of MALTA and jobs in high demand in the cities and jobs opportunities and rental apartments for families and for a single person to live and work around in the Cities in the End I would like to say million thanks and stay blessed.
Thank you Pastor Samuel for your constant support
Thank you Alex, I love your videos, we would be looking at buying a property on the countryside too. We would love to meet you in Malta in december for a coffee if you are available.
Thanks Alex love from Canada
This yank is going to Malta in the next 5 months and Alex, if you see this, just know that your takes have been vital in my research in where I’ll be staying, what to expect as far as expenses, what to see, etc. and that if we cross paths, I owe you a beer…or twelve…. Dealer’s choice.
And Alex wishes you best of luck in your move. Im glad that my videos have helped. Please say hi you see. Oh and btw, i drink pink gin with tonic hahah
EXCELLENT & WELL ARTICULATED COMPARISON ALEX 👏. I would prefer a combo of BOTH : beautiful old ST PAUL'S BAY Village area 🌊🌿😍. For something quieter how about MANIKATA or even MGARR village? 🤔 - but then I'm biased towards the NORTH ☺. One final point Alex, you are right, in a place like ZURRIEQ you've got an "identity & a feeling of belonging", which would have been non existent in "busy" GZIRA ..
THANKS ALEX 🎥 👏
Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Thank you John❤ always a pleasure reading your comments
I think I like Zurrieq better too, when I went to Gzira, my friend lives there, way too much traffic and construction
Thanks Alex, this was a very good comparison of two areas. Can you make a comparison between Marsascala and Marsaxlokk? I very much enjoyed staying in Marsascala about 7 years ago. Thanks again for this informative comparison. Cheers Charles
Thanks Charles. Will try to do it
Hey Alex love the videos :) I found out your channel today and I find you really engaging and that you give very nice information. I am moving to Malta on May for a job in iGaming and my concern moving to a new country is if I will be able to make friends easily or not :) Keep up the nice videos. Love them.
Hello Christopher, thank you so much, im glad you are enjoying my videos. And im pretty sure you will have a lot of fun in Malta. Making friends is very easy in Malta, do you have Insta ? Text me there
Love my home town Zurrieq 💗
Me too❤️
Hey brother how are you...
I like your videos brother....
Very soon I'm coming from Malta...
In Sha Allah 🥰
Great, see you around :)
@@AlexinMalta Sure bro.. why not
Alex your english is very good every parson undes stand
I try to keep my vocabulary pretty simple and my accent easy to understand :)
Zurrieq it’s really one of the best village in Malta, I live in Zabbar and here there is a lot of traffic and a lot of garbages around the streets.
I am filming in Zabbar soon :) i love Zurrieq
Hey Alex, I'm enjoying the videos you make on Malta! Quick question: Where can I get a great haircut when I visit Malta? I plan on making a surprise visit to my girlfriend who lives there soon. Thanks. Keep making those videos.
Hehe good one. Visit my barber in Gzira, the shop is “Turkish Barber” and his name is Andrea (he is Albanian)
Hi Alex hope you are well
Great video showing the difference life styles. Me personally would like to live in the countryside. It seems more slower pace. Would it be possible you could make a video between Mellieha and Attard. Many thanks
Good video comparing the two places. How about showing us around Bummarad. It is becoming connected with St Paul's.
Interesting, will check it and will record
You are Great 💙
Keep it Up!!! 👍
Grazzi❤️
Amazing!
Thanks for always being supportive ❤
05:48 You forgot to mention Mqabba brate moj😁
Veliki pozdrav👋
Draganeeeeee :) nadam se vidimo se uskoro :)
@@AlexinMalta I mi se nadamo da uskoro vidimo našu Suzi 🙂
Your videos make me live romance in Malta❤❤
Awww ❤❤❤❤
Could you make a video about Haz-Zebbug. I'm considering buying a property there and I'm interested in your take on the town
Zebbug is really nice, will do a video on it
@@AlexinMalta I'm interested too! We just arrived in Malta, we already found an apartment in Zebbug and are moving there next week
Super bro
Thank you
Please do a video about Birkirkara
Will do :)
My father lives in silima been going for 16 years been all over beat memories of my life have been in Malta 🇲🇹
❤️
@Alex in Malta pacheville was brilliant years ago I'm to old for it now
Hello alex !! Very good video, and very interesting comparison which i share defintely. Zurrieq it is realky peaceful and relaxing. What about comparing st julians and sliema? Let me know .thanks
Ughhh Sliema and St Julians comparison hmmmm that is more like a “city battle” i think i might do that
@@AlexinMalta I used to live in sliema in the early eighties. And now sliema and also the magic of spinola bay has gone, to leave space to an entertainment industry district. Anyway I'm looking forward to see your good and bad of each place. From your videos, i am following you,i understood you are very good in showing these and other topics very useful and as one of your followers said you are a sure passionate about malta more than some people expat that live in malta and do not appreciate the beauty of malta and the warm welcoming people of all maltese islands. So i'm looking forward to see your comparison of the two cities. Thanks in advance for your wonderful job you are doing in showing the places that caught my heart and soul.
It will be interesting if you compare Buggiba and Marsaskala
Nice combo, will try to do it
Mqabba is also a great village to live in, not far from zurrieq
Hey Alex. Hope all is well. Have you reviewed areas like Bugibba, Qawra or Salina? I am looking at apartments to rent in those areas and then commute to the office in San Gwann.
Keep up the good work sir.
Hey, the only thing i can say is avoid Bugibba
@@AlexinMalta Thanks Alex. Any areas you suggest? I don't plan on living in the city centre - I'll probably get annoyed too quickly. lol
Make a good and more about qorim Malta
Qormi
? No
@@AlexinMalta That was a very blunt response 😂😂😅😂.I like it
First🔥
❤️
I really like the countryside houses , as they have a little yard or garden in front of the house and looks a bit British type housing , wondering how much is the rent in that area where you live? would be lovely to know the range for house or apartment with 2-3 bed with two bathrooms at least. Thanks
Wied iz Zurrieq is a Zurrieq gem you don't have to seperate it it's still part of Zurrieq beauty
Hey, it is part yes, but the Wied iz Zurrieq forms part of Qrendi :)
@@AlexinMalta ok but the valley stills bears our village name 😊😁
@@AlexinMalta this is the same thing in macedonia it is greek actually 🙂

Good morning Alex, please how many hours from Zurrieq to mosta
25 min with a car
Hey Alex, I'm thinking to rent apartment in Zurrieq, but can you tell me if I can find jobs in hospitality, like restaurants bars ? I speak only English as well, is it gonna be a problem ? maybe if know how is the salary situation ?
Hey dear. You can find a job, But not in Zurrieq, this is more of a residential area. You can also rent a beautiful townhouse for 800-900e
Hi bro I saw your all videos I would like to come to Malta but may I know easiest way to come Malta because so many fake consultants took money and they will not provide any visa so can u plz do a videos, how many ways we come to malta
5:08 blew my ears XD
Im so sorry about that i forgot to lower the volume in that part🥹i scream a lot
Hello brother I want to ask you about the position of immigrant workers in the country of Malta
please bro leave zurrieq alone lol don't promote it we want to stay safe in quiet....nothing personal Actually i like your videos
Hahaha dont worry, i will filter the bad newcomers out ;)
Hi Alex ! Do you think 1500 euro net salary is enough for a standart life in Malta ?
1500 net is pretty decent as long as your rent is not kore than 600e
@@AlexinMalta thank you for the answer Alex!
Hi Alex! I have a good friend thats thinking of moving from St. Julian's to Gozo in a couple of months. My question is where can i find a reasonable price house to buy on the island?
Im not much aware of Gozo to be honest
I heard good things about Gozo. Wish i knew more about it. Keep doing a great job your videos are very informative. And always fun to view the scenery. I cant wait to go for a holiday.
Is there any recruitment agency available to do Malta to Germany, the Netherlands France Austrian work visa
Qorim I want
🫣
Malata looks a lot like levant cites
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Hello bro.. Malta work parmit
Parmit no, permit yes
I always thought those are just neighborhoods within the city of Malta 😂
Hehe :)
dont waste your time with this guy-bla bla bla duct cleaning service
Zurrieq is a village gzira a town. There is one city Valletta. I can't believe this nonsense.
Kathryn calm down and take a chill pill
I didnt know Karen is spelled Kathryn 😏
Actually Zurrieq is big enough to be called a town (not to mention one of the oldest documented), not sure why you’re getting worked up…
Full of scummy online casinos, avoid the place
Which place ?
No one is forced to gamble. You need help buddy.
