The AirBnB Apartment in Qawra, Malta
This was the apartment we stayed in for nearly two months while on the island of Malta. It certainly won’t rival our best AirBnB experience for a couple of reasons, but we made the best out of it. First of all, I’m not going to go into to much detail as this AirBnB will most […]
