Gozo – Jason likes to travel

Hello dear readers! I was just starting to get back in to the swing of things and posting regularly and then a pesky trip went and got in the way! What a travesty, right?

Admittedly, I could have been better prepared and had something scheduled and ready to go whilst I was traveling but let’s not get carried away! Committing to writing one post a week is a miracle without thinking about being prepared enough to write beyond that.

Anyway, the consequence is I don’t really have a “proper” post to share with you so I thought I’d give you the short and sweet version for now and we’ll write about this trip in more detail at a later date.

Those of you connected with me on other social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram or Twitter will have seen that I was in Malta last week. I said in my travel round-up post at the start of the year that I was itching for some Winter sunshine and after narrowing it down to a few options, Malta seemed like the best of them.

It’s funny how often we’ll set ourselves criteria for a trip and then wind up booking a trip that falls a bit short of that.

Let me say, my main criteria was to go somewhere with warmer and sunnier weather than England so Malta ticked that box at the very least.

I was thinking back to the Algarve last year and craving something similar, which meant discounting somewhere like Morocco, because I was craving something relaxing.

I definitely found time to relax in Malta still and enjoyed the weather of course but ironically I think one of the things that swayed me towards choosing Malta was the balance between having a nice hotel to relax at when I wanted to, whilst still having a destination that offered more.

And it didn’t disappoint. I’m going to blog about it in more detail at a later date but I’m glad I ended up going to Malta, it’s a great country to visit and theoretically it’s somewhere I’d go back to.

I don’t know when because there are other places I want to return to and a million other places I haven’t yet visited that I’d like to visit someday but I’d never rule out returning to Malta.

Anyway, I’ll blog about it in more detail at some point but for now I just want to share some photos from the trip.
