Malta & Gozo Paddy Cummins

This is my third book in praise of Malta and Gozo. It is my way of showing gratitude for the pleasure I have received there and my wish to share it with the world. When I first set foot on the little sun-drenched islands twenty years ago I was so impressed by everything I found that I referred to it as my little 'Gem in the Med.' I have since returned every year for extended periods, have seen the wonderful progress and development that has transformed the landscape and infrastructure, and I am now even more impressed, filled with respect and admiration, and more than ever it is still my little 'Gem in the Med.'I am now back in Malta for my 2018/2019 winter stay. I must say the little island looks more beautiful than ever. The gorgeous city of Valletta stands proud and magnificent after its momentous year as European Capital of Culture; a huge honour that in my opinion was richly deserved. I can't wait to start my wanderings across the length and breadth of those enchanting islands. Malta and Gozo will welcome me with wide open arms as they always do and when I say goodbye and return to Ireland in the spring I'll be refreshed, energised and brimming with the joyous memories and the uplifting spirit of those 'Islands in the Sun.' So come with me now as I begin my journey. I'll show you around the delights of The Maltese Islands, the hidden treasures of bygone days, the quaint little towns and villages and I'll introduce you to the most friendly and charming people in the world. You'll see then what it is that makes Malta so special and why it will always be my little 'Gem in the Med.'
