A Warm Welcome to Malta

As I stepped off the cruise ship and onto the sunlit shores of Malta, I was immediately enveloped by the island’s warm embrace. The air was filled with the scent of the sea, and the vibrant colors of the fishing boats in Marsaxlokk danced in the morning light. I was greeted by a representative from Edmonds Garage, holding a sign with my name, a gesture that felt both personal and professional. It was a promising start to what would become an unforgettable day.

To my delight, I learned that Edmond, the owner of Edmonds Garage, would be our guide for the day. His presence was both unexpected and delightful, setting the tone for an extraordinary journey. Edmond’s passion for Malta was evident from the moment we met, and his enthusiasm was infectious. As someone who curates romantic experiences for couples, I was eager to see how Edmond would craft our day on this enchanting island.
