Where to Take Your Next Vacation: Malta Travel Guide

First let’s start with where is Malta? It is an island off the coast of Italy. My family and I went over Christmas/new years and I wanted to share our favorite things we did, where we stayed, what we ate and most importantly what I wore!

We stayed in a beautiful villa in Mellieha (a city in Malta!). It was gorgeous and the owners were amazing! We had a tun of space and saved money making breakfast in the villa kitchen. I also have a tour in instagram highlights if you want to see a closer look.
