Paphos Life

Max , you said some farmers cannot read ! So is not uncommon for older Cypriots not to read Greek or Cypriot? Never given it a thought ! Re deciding what to buy , hard choice, if you go to paps Chloraka I believe the Cyprus fruit and veg are sourced locally, so are they ok ? Or not ! It's a problem...

The overuse not only of pesticides, but also hormones, antibiotics etc is unchanged since decades here in Cyprus. So, as more healthy you try to eat with local produced vegetables or fruits, as more you have the chance to absorb things which are not good for your body. What I suggest is to avoid hu...

I would try it at the London Garden Center, Polis Road. I bought my plants in the past 30 years or so from them...

Both you can plant in Jan/Feb and mind: not too much water for the lavender bush, now and in future.

That third one looks nasty.

Unfortunately I missed a lot of really nice lightnings due to the fact that between every photo is a 30 second pause the camera needs to develop the last shot and exactly in this time the best flashes happened...

The progress they made at this giant building site still amazes me.

Yes. Red Mullet is delicious, but even better if the fish were allowed to grow bigger before they are taken from the sea. Dee I disagree, You can ask any Cypriot which size a Red Mullet (Barbouni) is tastier. The smaller they are, so much the better. A normal portion is between six and ten pieces. ...
