Get into the habbit of READING your suggested links... :lol:

A new Mercer study ranks cities by the quality of life they offer expatriate executives and their families across the world What foreign postings are most coveted by expatriate executives?

Actually if you go to the businessweek list and follow the link to the whole list Nicosia is nowhere in it even though the list ends with Baghdad as last. So unless you consider Nicosia a less liveable place to live in than Baghdad someone did not bother doing any research on Cyprus.

That just say's a lot about Nicosia. 8)

insulting your capital city is a little like insulting your whole country.

That's only because he's a pushto-galamaras...

You would be happy to notice that Athens made the list.

And after seeing all the infrastructure they built in readiness for the 2004 Olympics, I am not surprised that Athens is so high up the list. 8)

Oh and one more thing. Athens is on the coast. :lol:

Athens is a smoldering dump! It's just as well her citizens decided to cleanse her...

National Forest Park of Athalassa

“The park is situated at the Southeastern edge of the capital Nicosia and covers an area of 840 hectares. Afforestation began in 1904 with the planting of various forest species, mainly from abroad. Over 500 trees, shrubs and herbs have been recorded in the area, 12 of which are endemic. At Athalassa N.F.P a network of trails has been created covering 20 km.”

"Athalassa National Forest Park, with an area of 840 ha with man made vegetation, is situated near Lefkosia town, and offers many recreational facilities, such as nature trails, picnic-sites, botanical gardens, bird-watching sites and volley-ball, basket-ball fields. A Visitor Centre has been recently created providing information to visitors and environmental education to schools."

Nicosia has a population of 300,000 and next up is Limassol with half as many so you figure it out...

Nicosia 270.000 Limassol 200.000 and you're beside the point

According to the Statistical Service of Cyprus (CYSTAT)…

“The population in the district of Nicosia was 310.900 at the end of 2007, in Famagusta 43.700, in Larnaka 131.900, in Limassol 226.700 and in Paphos 76.100.”

http://www.mof.gov.cy/mof/cystat/statis ... t&sub=1&e=

It looks like you're 84,200 citizens behind! :lol:


So what? Limassol has the tallest Christmas tree in Cyprus.
