@growingupabroad: Would you live here? 😎❤️ Exploring the town of Sliema, on the island of Malta! 🇲🇹 For anyone that doesn't live on the island, here's a brief intro: 👇 Located on the east coast of the Mediterranean island of Malta, is the seaside town of Sliema. Named after the Maltese word for 'peace', Sliema was used as a summer residence for rich knights or nobles. Today it has grown into one of the most tourist filled areas on the island; with shopping, dining, gaming and dancing all within one small town. From Sliema, you're able to take several ferries to places like Valletta, Comino, Gozo, and even Sicily! My advice? 😉👇 Take it from someone who's lived on the island for over 10 years... 🫶 Sliema is a beautiful place to live and work if you know what to expect. Because of its proximity to places on the island, it's ideal for tourists to use as a 'home base' and to branch out from there. 👍 If you're young and looking to live where you work, Sliema has a great energy about it, with nightlife and places to shop and eat everywhere. Just remember to respect everyone else living there as well. 😉 Sliema has a lot of beautiful architecture located within its streets, but it's best to explore the town on foot to minimize traffic, and to slow down and enjoy. 👀 If you're looking for quieter streets, head inward or around each cove along the shoreline until you find your own peace in the town of Sliema. ✌️ Travel | Malta | Sliema | Island Life | Living in Malta Europe | Visit Malta | Islands | Exploring | Local | Nightlife | Things to do | Places to Visit | Beautiful Places | Mediterranean | GrowingUpAbroad 🌍

Ainzooalgown🇲🇹🇪🇺🇮🇹🇬🇧 :
Sliema was named like that because in the old days fishermen would say a prayer when sailing by that part. the hail Mary. in Maltese it starts like this "Sliema ghalik Marija". So it became known as tas-Sliema. (of the hail Mary) the "tas-" was eventually dropped.
Gzira, the town next to it where I'm from, is called so because of the small island next to it. Manoel island. Gzira literally means island.
Those places as well as the rest of Malta were beautiful 40/50 years ago.
Now, sadly, they're a dump.

Moving to Sliema has been one of the best decisions of my entire life. The people, the culture, the water, the views. I used to drive 8 hours a day in CA, now I walk, take the bus and bolt everywhere.

Thanks for this video we commute from Sliema to our holiday apartment in Gozo on the fast ferry, the new route to Sliema & Bugibba is a great addition, plus we have our timeshare at The newly refurbished Hotel Fortina so we love Sliema & the point shopping mall.
