Living the Dream

Postby David S » Wed Mar 11, 2009 11:28 pm

Hi

My wife and I are still in the early planning stages (hopefully in the next 2 years) of relocating to Cyprus.

What we would really love is to read the experiences of those of you who have "blazed the trail" for us.

As you can imagine we are "spongelike" at the moment and are trying to take in all of the advice shared on this forum.

We would really appreciate your advice.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and we are really enjoying being new members of this forum.

David & Angela

Trailblazer? You're a newbie unless you have been here at least 30 years!

Drive in the middle of the road while sending a text message and you will fit in fine.

You'll have to excuse my nose picking, fag smoking, arm swinging, loud mouth compatriots who misunderstood "blazed the trail" with “driving in Cyprus”! :?
