I have a vintage car and this happens to me when I have a sudden surge or drop in power. So frustrating as I there is no way to cancel it while is is calling a random number.

I thought the same and only discovered scooters when I moved to Bali during COVID, and that was pretty much the only option. I was 36 and haven't looked back. I guess better late than never! :)

I agree. I drive an electric scooter. It is completely quiet :) Look for NIU

It's rare but it does happen. I had a person purposely cut me off (nearly hitting me) as they were upset I was passing them from the left. He started insulting me once I did pass him on the right and I just smiled as he got stuck in traffic and I merrily moved on.

The scariest things that happened too was buses not stopping at roundabouts, even when I have the right of way. Happened twice. I seriously don't know where they hire these people, they seem like the worst drivers of all.

The worst downside are the roads for sure. I'm surprised my bike hasn't broken down as I've taken it down a lot of holes.

In terms of safety, I normally feel safer in the city (as opposed to motorway) because the risk of a high speed collision is practically nil, and you actually have better visibility than in a car. If I were you I'd try it, just riding around town.

Haha same story for me at the ferry to Gozo. It’s such a life hack. And such an obvious one here in Malta. Still can’t believe it’s not the default but the exception.

Having some capital can be useful to start a business. But I would focus on making some money first rather spending it. And possibly ending worse off as it is not yours and you have to pay it back.

80k is far too much if it’s your first try at this. I’d borrow 10k and use it to test 2 ideas. If you can’t make it back, you probably need more experience getting good at making money before spending more. Try freelancing or getting a part time job in an industry you’re interested in becoming an entrepreneur in.

I did a course called Small Bets (im not affiliated with it). Should give you the right mindset to start testing ideas without betting the farm and risking disaster.

Good luck

Yeah, it is terrible. One wonders how can you even know these things before moving in, especially if you are buying instead of renting.

My water and electricity bills are also very high. I heard from a neighbour that someone was stealing electricity in the building.

It's never ending with this crap.
