21st June - 30th June

So this was my last week in Malta, and although it was very emotional, it was also absolutely brilliant!!
At the beginning of the week, we had the best party I have ever been to, as Patrick hired a masssive boat for all of us for the day, which stopped at Comino for us to go swimming next to the caves. We als had Marco doing DJ on the boat, reguarly playing the official ERASMUS Malta song, created by Allison. After diving off the top level of the boat, swimming and snorkelling, it was back off home to relax for the night.



 Soon  after, it was time for Matthew to return home. This wasn't such an emotional goodbye as I know I will see him back in Belfast. However, having the room so tidy and empty is a rare sight that I dont particuarly enjoy to be honest, I supposed I've got used to sharing a room. As Matthew left, Becca's sister arrived and we had some final activities to get on with before returning home.
On one day, we went walking round 'the three cities'. This proved tio be a terrible idea as it was roasting, and we were all absoloutely wrecked by the time we eventually found a bus stop, where we must have waited at least an hour!! Typical of the Maltese buses, that's something I will not miss!!
Furthermore, we also went to St Peter's pool for the first time, where we sunbathed and dived off the cliffs. Rhyss even attempted a superman dive through a rubber ring in the water. Although he missed, it was quite the attempt!
Finally, we also went off to the blue lagoon, where we got a boat trip around all the different caves. This is one of my favourite places in Malta, with an awesome view and the clearest water!!

So as my last week came to an end in Malta, I looked forward to a flight to Dublin with Becca, Sarah and Ellie, followed by a bus journey to Dublin. Saying goodbye to everyone was extremely weird, and it did not feel right leaving the place and people that I had become so used to, it will definitly take some time settling in back home, after such an amzing time in Malta. I can honestly say that I have never regretted my decision to go to Malta. I had an amazing time and met some of the best people, I would not turn t,down the opportunity to do something like this again and I would like to thank everyone who made it possible.
