Hot Lefkada
Visiting the Greek islands can represent , most of the time, unforgettable moments. Still, if you are more of an active person, lying on the quite rocky beaches and staying in boiling hot sun is not much fun. In this situation, the nearest memory that would stay with you for a long period of time would be unbearable heat.

Eating habits in Malta
A glass of smooth local wine with friends in a village bar comes with a dish of olives, some ġbejniet (local sheep’s cheeses), zalzett (coriander flavoured Maltese sausage) with galletti (Maltese crackers) and some bigilla (broad bean pate) served with Maltese bread and olive oil; or on a cold day hot pastizzi (savoury ricotta filled pastries) are perfect with wine or coffee. Summer days at the beach means ħobs biż-żejt, a popular snack made from a thick slice of crusty Maltese bread, rubbed with juicy, red tomatoes and topped with mint, a little onion, sheep’s cheese and anchovies all soaked in delicious green olive oil; a taste of sunshine, a taste of Malta.The Maltese tend to use both olive oil and vegetable oil to prepare food while sweets and alcohol are still popular. Consumption of vegetables and fruit is very low, nowhere close to the recommended five portions a day.
