Where on Earth: Week 26 – Gozo, Malta

Gozo is the smaller island that makes up the tiny Mediterranean nation of Malta. This is a stunning natural arch called the “Azure Window” on Gozo’s northern coast. The main island of Malta is fascinating but can feel crowded due to its concentrated population. Across on Gozo, it’s a totally different story, especially if you’re staying in one of the restored farmhouses.

Gozo deserves to be the new Tuscany. You heard it here first.
