I'm an inexperienced traveller who wants to do a solo trip for the first time. I want to do something off the beaten path a bit for an American, but something still more or less easy-mode, so I've settled on visiting Malta. Can someone give me a quick rundown of essential shit to do here over the course of a five day trip? Anything especially. to avoid?
>>2734437Don’t solo travel. People will think you’re a loser. You’re going to be the weird 4chan guy in the corner of the hostel while all the people who came in groups try to avoid you. Why don’t you have friends who want to travel with you?
>>2734495Dont listen to this weasel. Other people are absolutely inessential to a good trip. I had to blow off my Normie crew and even rudely reject a civilian girl who was blatantly trying to fuck me, in order to bone my first tutor in Tijuana Mexico and actually enjoy myself.Normie friends threshold for degeneracy was way to low and they were stifling me, like this hypersocial faggot would if you traveled with him. Better to go alone. I suggest places that are more used to seeing lone white men tho. Especially if you’re inexperienced. Isn’t Malta a rich, hyper Normie destination
>>2734495The only people who shouldn’t solo travel are young women. If you insist on traveling with friends, you might spend your whole life waiting for your friends to get their shit together well enough for them to leave with you. Dont wait on anyone. Go it alone. Life is too short and the world right now is too volatile for you to be waiting on anybody. Solo travel. Just fucking do it.
>>2734437Do solo travel. People will be more willing to approach you since they know they won't be interrupting a conversation or disrupting your group. You're going to be totally unconstrained by your friends who will always want to do something boring or disagree with you on what food to get or which bars to go to, and better yet none of your friends will cockblock you or end up humiliating you by ODing and forcing you to come with them to the ER while they piss themselves on the train. Why would you ever want to travel with friends instead of alone or with your sexual partner? Most of the time everyone's too busy working or too fearful to travel with you anyways.I don't have much to say about Malta but avoid Paceville unless you like 15 year olds and being around the annoying third world brown men trying to get with said 15 year olds.Your hostel will have itinerary resources to follow once you arrive. I would stay away from the internet for the most part and just talk with locals/fellow tourists/tour guides. More fun, more social, and less to worry about.
>>2734495I'm 35 and have a garden leave in between jobs, so I have time to travel for once. My friends are either careerists or have kids.>>2734520This - I'm bored and not willing to wait around for my friends to free up.
>>2734523>but avoid Paceville unless you like 15 year olds and being around the annoying third world brown men trying to get with said 15 year olds.How do you know this is the “scene” at paceville?
>>2734533Bro you’re fucking 35 you solo travelling is just creepy and sad at this point
>>2734535Thank god for Thailand and the philippines. 35 is young there.
>>2734536No the fuck it ain’t
>>2734537Yea it is lol. Zoomers are disqualified from gatekeeping any social space related to being “young.” You guys are more dogshit than millennials ever could be.
>>2734535>35 you solo travelling is just creepy and sadGenuinely curious, when does solo travel start to be creepy. Is 25 old? I like solo traveling.>t. 25 yo autist
>>273455925 isn’t old but it’s definitely the age where people will look at you funny when you tell them
>>2734551Struck a nerve huh
>>2734535I'm 40 and solo travel all the time. How old are you and why are you so triggered by older people solo traveling?
>>2734535Maybe I should have prefaced this by saying I'm traveling to fuck co-eds in hostels. I thought it would have been obvious I was looking for food/sightseeing advice seeing as I was asking about Malta, but what do I know. Is there some huge prostitution scene in Valletta I don't know about?
>>2734594*NOT traveling, lol
>>2734580Well, that's a bummer. I figured I should travel as much as possible in my 20s while I am still independent (no gf/wife/kids). Good thing I only got asked once my age. It was this 19 year old girl who thought I was a student. I don't think she found it creepy because she took a selfie with me. Weird, I know.
>>2734847It makes me really angry that you can just safely assume that everything will be figured out and you’ll just seamlessly proceed to the next stage of life successfully in your 30s. I’m almost 34 and there’s no possible way I can afford a family or provide any kind of life for a woman
>>2734523Ok so I’ve noticed we’ve kind of drifted away from the most important topic which is paceville and the 15 year olds that occupy it so everyone let’s please circle back thanks
What is this zoomer cope about 30+ being too old to solo travel? Fucking kids ROFL.
>>2734974It’s because they already look like rotting eggs at 23 LMFAO so they try to shit on anyone older because they desperately need to keep us beautiful millennial gods away from their crusty zoomette dogz
>>2734437Hey OP. Maltanon here, I would suggest you visit Sliema, Valletta and our sister island Gozo too. Paceville is hit or miss, if you like shitty clubs that play EDM you may like it, but it's too crowded for my taste. I usually go to Valletta at night for some drinks or Bugibba/Sliema to chill out.If you're into prostitutes your best bet is to use websites and arrange a meeting that way. Just type in Malta escorts and you should be sorted. Most of the options are either slavs, south americans and some asians. Local prostitutes exist but they are the minority
>>2734516>Isn’t Malta a rich, hyper Normie destinationI don't know about rich but it's super easy mode for an English speaker since 99% of Maltese speak it. So don't be shy about asking locals for help since most of us are happy to oblige
>>2734986>>2734988You’re a nice guy, Maltino. Paceville seems more my speed because…haha…
>>2734495>Don’t solo travel. People will think you’re a loser.kek but i am a loser
>>2734940Well, I'm sorry you feel that way. As I said, I am an autist, so I know it will be hard for me to get a gf/wife. But why not have some confidence? After all, I had a lot of girls chatting with me when I was abroad. That's why I like solo traveling, it forces me to socialize and be independent. Anyways, I'm starting to think that if 25 is not considered old, then why should it be weird to solo travel. I just wanna live a little bit.
>>2734986Thanks anon. Is there one restaurant or museum you'd put above the rest?
>>2734495>>2734535>>2734580>Oh no! What about what other people may think about you!!How about you stop giving a shit?
Worst thing about solo travel is that there is no one to take you pics (unless you risk getting your phone stolen thousands of kilometres from home) so then you can't put it on Tinder to show you are affluent and interesting person. So after all of these I will still remain incel
Leaf living in Malta here. Dont listen to the retards telling you travelling solo is weird, many do it here.For a 5 day trip:- Go to Mdina- Go to Valletta- Go to the Valletta waterfront area and take a small boat taxi to Birgu- Visit fort st angelo- Visit dingli cliffs- Visit blue grotto- Visit marsaxlokk on a sunday if you like open markets (A bit crowded and a tourist trap though)- Go to the dragonara casino and chill there- Paceville is the degenerate hub of Malta, drugs, sex, trannies, prostitutes, criminals, cops, everyone meets in that place and it is relatively shitty.- If you want night life the old red light district in Valletta is 100x better for drinks and food- Sliema is overcrowded, polluted and overpriced, but nice views over the sea so booking a hotel there beats st julians>>2735490Marrobio sliema for PizzaBrass & Knuckles in Naxxar for meat/steaksFor museums national war museum on a sunny day is niceYou can do all of that alone without seeming weird, no one gives a shit about how you look unless you try to invite yourself to a party in Paceville.
>>2736128Forgot to add:- Visit sant anton gardens in Attard, nice walk, various birds and peacocks chilling there, ducks, cats, etc and a lot of plants. There are trees planted by various world leaders and dignitaries such as a russian empress or even prince hirohito of Japan before he became emperor. The brother of Napoleon was imprisoned in that place too so it has a lot of history.- Golden Bay is nice for the beach if you dont mind the cold water and the nearby hills are good hiking spots.- Maltese food is meh, a lot of sicilian and british influence. The rabbit is overrated but restaurants in Mgarr make the best rabbit hands down. If you want the best pastizzi go to Rabat. The italian restaurants are good quality usually. Avoid sushi joints as most employ pajeet migrant workers with zero training on fish preparation or hygiene.- Visit the cisk brewery, they have a roof top pub and the beer is fresh off the brewery, and the blue label is hands down one of the best i had in europe (Given its fresh).
