There is no place like Malta…. follow link and watch interview on YouTube

Joseph Calleja: There’s no place like Malta

“Malta is really my everything,” says Maltese tenor Joseph Calleja in Air Malta’s latest video.

Mr Calleja, who has spent his life travelling to share his talent was asked what Malta meant to him as he buzzed around the island in a red vintage sports car.

The following was his reply:

“Malta is really my everything…. You cannot possibly be interested in the history of human civilisation and not come to Malta. It still remains one of the most interesting, beautiful, warm, spiritual, historic, places I’ve ever been to.

I remember the bells in Naxxar. The beautiful bells chiming especially on Sunday morning… I remember the scent of the festas, I remember the scent of the incense in the processions, I remember the smell in Ħal Qormi that emanated from the bakeries.

The best bread in the world is baked in Malta. It’s only good for three hours after you buy it but it’s really the best bread you can find…

You will not find an island of our proportions, of our size, with our history, with their own language. There is no other island like us. The islands of our size around the world, you don’t even know about.

Eight, nine weeks in a row in a country and I’m walking in the terminal and through the window I see our plane with the Maltese cross and I’m like, ‘Oh God, I’m home’. Then when I step on it, I ask for a Kinnie with ice, and then I am home….”

“You can’t possibly be interested in the history of civilisation and not come to Malta.”

Mr Calleja is Air Malta’s brand ambassador.

Our club goes out to Malta/Gozo every year and Atlantis was by far the best centre we have dealt with. The communication building up to the trip was great. So helpful. Our club has a mixed range of diver levels and Atlantis made sure that all our levels was covered. On arrival the welcome was very warming. They couldn’t have been more helpful. Once the admin and kit issue was done we was on our way. The end I’ve every day the team was on hand to assist us making sure we was all prepared for the following day. Nitrox, stages, fills and so on. The end of our trip the staff even came to the apartment to say farewell and seen us off. One of our club members left their regs by mistake but the team contacted us and meet us at the ferry port to return them. Thank you so much!!! We will be returning next year.

I did a package deal of 10 dives with Atlantis and was extremely impressed from the get go. The center was very well equipped and maintained and the staff were awesome, totally committed to making sure everyone was welcomed and having fun whilst keeping a high level of professionalism. The guides (Denis, Georgia, Apollo, George) were very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend Atlantis to anyone looking for a solid and trustworthy center with fair prices. P.s. Go in November, its way less busy and the vis is still good!
