We’ve got a really interesting video for you this week—one that left a big impression on us while filming.

In this episode, we spend time with an incredible NGO in Malta that’s doing vital work to clean up the harbours. These dedicated volunteers aren’t afraid to get stuck in—literally diving into the water to pull up years’ worth of rubbish and debris from the seabed. It was both shocking and inspiring to watch them in action. At one point, we saw them haul up huge ropes, tangled fishing nets, and even old tyres that had been lying underwater for who knows how long. It’s a powerful reminder of the impact pollution has on our oceans, but also of the difference people can make when they care enough to take action.

What really struck us was the energy and passion of the team. This isn’t glamorous work—it’s cold, wet, and physically demanding—but their sense of purpose was contagious. They’re not just cleaning harbours; they’re helping to restore marine ecosystems and make the waterfronts safer and more beautiful for everyone. If you’d like to learn more about what they’re doing, or even support their efforts, you can check out their website here: https://www.zibel.org/. Every little bit helps them continue this amazing work.

The following day, we took things a little slower and explored one of the local markets. There’s something so special about wandering through a busy market, hearing the chatter of vendors, smelling all the fresh produce and spices, and seeing the colorful array of goods on display. We love moments like these because they give such an authentic glimpse into local life.
So grab a cup of tea (or something stronger!) and enjoy this week’s video. We’d love to hear what you think about the NGO’s work—does your area have similar initiatives? Have you ever joined a clean-up or environmental project? Drop us a comment and let’s chat about it.

Thanks again for being here. You make this journey so rewarding. ❤️
