Mission Impossible: A day in Malta with only €10
Alex in Malta shows us how to explore the island for under €10!

Did you think it was possible to live off €10 for a whole day on the island? Well, Alex in Malta showed us how it's done… 

Youtuber, known as Alex in Malta, decided to get out of his comfort zone and set quite a tight budget for the day. 

Even though we totally agree with Alex that all the best things in life are, in fact, free, "the nature, the sun, the vibe in Valletta is just mesmerizing, and it's all for free", as he says, we would still find this quite a challenge. 

From Sliema to the Capital City, Alex takes us around with him to tour what our Capital has to offer. 

The duo hopped on the ferry and travelled by public transport from the Sliema front to the Valletta for just €3! 

You just can’t explore the city without a pastizz in hand, so after a quick bite, the two enjoyed exploring everything from Republic Street to the "picturesque area" of the Upper Barraka Gardens. Alex even gives us a quick history catch up whilst wandering around. 

Their last stop was a quick visit to the iconic Caffé Cordina, for a taste of their delicious chocolate fudge dessert and, of course, a cappuccino. 

Thank you, Alex, for showing off our beautiful Capital!
