I am originally from Sliema Malta and I emigrated to the UK at the age of 19. in 1966. I lived in UK for 39 years and worked for The London Underground for 31 years. I was medically retired at the age of 57 after a mild heart attack. My wife (Indian) and I decided to retire to the sun somewhere. I must admit my first preference at the time was The Algarve, but my wide preferred Gozo. like the goodman that I am I listened to her and now we have been living here in Sannat for the last 5 years. It has not been all flowers but on the whole I think it was the right choice.
I joined expat.com on 13 June 2009.
