Want to move to malta - impossible!

all is never lost my friend..but it does look like an uphill struggle what do you both do or could you do by way of working?

getting a job here isnt easy as others will verify...wages here arent great either - however you can do it if you are determined to do so....15500 euros here is a good wage by maltese standards.

accomodation is easy to find and can be as little as 200-250 euros a month, but you do get what you pay for sadly.

am sure if you put your questions and enquiries across on here  there will be plenty of good solid info and advice for you

Hi Kirsty,

welcome to the forum.

I agree with toon and must say that you shouldn't give up too soon -)))

But my first question would be: Why are you so keen to move to Malta? Have you been to Malta before? What is your motivation and expectation?

And my second question: What are your job qualifications and what kind of work would you be looking for in Malta. There are jobs, many jobs, in varius areas that require cqualifications and language skills. And many of these jobs pay a lot more than the 15.000 GBP's.

If you can get a job earning more than 15.000 €/year and can live on a low budget Malta is not that far away!

Cheers
Ricky

if its your dream - then make sure it happens....it may seem impossible but nothing is impossible...just a little hard to do maybe - but keep ya chin up and like ricky says dont give up on it......

All is never lost! You have hope and dreams....never give up on those or you be up the creek without a paddle.

I was also young (21 actually) with a baby and it seems like you are always stuck in some sort of situation - time wise, money wise, school, career. It always seems like there is not nough of any of it to go around.  However, we make it throught some days showered, some days not.

To move to Malta would be a big initial undertaking,financially and timewise: there is packing, shipping, searching for the least offensive flat, and then there is a few months rent paid in advance.

BUT jumping to another country while your family is still young would give you an advantage. You could join some moms club and meet some friend with kids your babies age. Your baby would most likely become more profiecient in Maltese before you and your mate.

MY 2 cents: If at all possible, save a little money each month or give up smoking and all moneies that you would have paid for a smoke goes into a MOVE TO MALTA jar..move in with family and save as much as possible, set a reasonable time line, 8 months-1year of saving, community research, etc and just do it.
Make your move to Malta -do it before you get sucked into preschool and a carved in set routine. 
Life goes by fast - get the most out of it!

Of course this is just my opinion...

Make sure that your mum, dad, family also know what the jar is for so that they can add funds to it aswell
