Widy, a cab driver, has welcomed and driven Maltese tourists around Bali for the last decade.
He has clearly enjoyed making new Maltese friends through the years and has made a point to learn a thing or two about Malta, from culinary customs to celebrities, phrases and history.

“I’m really interested in Malta. It’s a small country but rich in history. I’ve read a lot about it. I haven’t gone yet but I promise I will one day,” he said.
Paztizzi, timpana and fenek are on his list of culinary things to try once he visits.
Lovin Malta even got a shout-out from this adorable Balinese man.
Let’s hope he will receive the same love when he does visit Malta!
