Paphos Life

Most of the traffic towards Polis comes from the Limassol direction not from Paphos. Nearly all the goods of the supply chain with transport cars, as well as all tourist buses and rental cars come also from that direction as the two airports are in east of the country and Nicosia is still the main h...

Another good article in the local press, on the anniversary Cyprus joining the EU, 20 years ago....especially during the bailout of 2013, after the explosion of the main power station at Limassol area.

Maybe somebody was wondering what happened last Sunday evening in front of Green Air's office with hundreds of people seen on the their webcam... https://up.picr.de/47538012qu.jpg "In the presence of a crowd of people who closed the event space, the inauguration of the election staff of the Dep...

This article, even if you read it 3 times, tells you nothing why there is a delay, only talks about meetings and meetings... Some weeks ago I was reading in the press, that the contractor wants nearly 3 years more time and extra 22 million Euros extra money for farious reasons. I already questioned ...

Very strange day today in Anarita. Cloud cover all day and we only made 7.33kwh on our pv system, compared to 18.3kwh in Wales. (only the second time we have made more in Wales than Cyprus) One day later however, today, you should have produced more than 6 kWh per 1 kWp installed solar modules, eve...

I was never a huge beer consumer in Germany but I quite like a nice red wine which I can find here in Cyprus, even organic produced.(Tsangarides Vinery Lemona) Concerning the "Bratwurst": Born in Nuremberg, hometown of the famous Nuremberger Bratwurst, luckily this type is available at Lid...

Myth or not, we've lived here 20 years and almost every year something like this turns up. Some years have been worse than others....... I am living here permanently more than 40 years now and must say that 20 years ago the Coptic calendar was far more accurate then nowadays with the climate change...

Today it is very hot for the time of the year and dusty air, in Paphos area, however I will not complain after looking at the weather in Germany today. It is like that more than 4 days there.... Many cars had severe problems and got stuck in snow and ice as they changed their tyres for Summer ones t...

I forgot to mention that the noise this plane was producing while landing at the Army base Paphos, more than 10 km away from my place, sounded like thunder and I went outdoors to look if rainy weather is coming. Normally I can't hear a thing when planes are landing at Paphos airport. Perhaps the run...

After a couple of much cooler days, Summer will be back from Tuesday/Wednesday with temperatures at Paphos even more than Nicosia....
Very high for April with 35c in the Paphos area.

This lunchtime I had lovely swordfish at the tavern I always go, near the military airfield at Timi Beach and with a lot of noise this plane departed from the airport around 1 PM, flying right over the tavern and then in the direction of Israel.... I was reading in the press the other day, that mili...

I was wondering why I was much more coughing all morning today and had a look at the Cyprus Air quality website, which was showing at 9 AM, for PM 10: 139 mcg/m2 for Paphos and whopping 242 mcg/m2 at 10 PM for Limassol. So mind, if you are active outdoors this morning.... https://up.picr.de/47441592...

Since a couple of days the nighttime temperature at my place in the Paphos hinterland (450 m sea level) was not below 18c and looking up the forecast of a German weather website, it looks like that summer 2024 is on the way early....

I am OK, just needed a break after I was not amused of answers I was getting in a short period of time from some of my posts. As for instance: I will not discuss on a forum my connections I have with the Mayor of Paphos and his Deputy, specially when there are elections pending. However I will not s...

Yesterday afternoon the Paphos Carnival started with the first event. The theme was King "Pharaoh" and performed by dancers from dance schools, cheerleaders and the Philharmonic Orchestra of the Municipality. Our Mayor with wife and children were in the frontline when the spectacle started...

Reading this article on PaphosPress this morning, I thought it is also interesting for people living in the Paphos district. It is not very often that an Interview of a Cypriot politician is published in such good quality, specially the translation and nice photos as well. It starts like that: The M...

Contracts signed 14.12.23 in front of the old Police Station by our Mayor and Deputy.
