...i visited in '80 and '81, never went to my village, and everywhere i went there was with an escort, only from sun-up to sun-down, then like now i suppose you'll find Cypriots (and even under these circumstances) who see themselves as Cypriots first. i remembered Kyrenia as it was, ten years before, but now without people; enough time for the waiter to go back and forth, one at a time: the napkin, the water, the coffee...
i hope some day i'll feel a reason to visit again, for now i encourage anyone who is open to dialog and who exchanges with other Cypriots to visit, although for some like me the fear of the authorities still haunts me,
but...
...biiiillll! i'd go to Kyrenia with you anytime.
