Paphos Life

I am curious to know how well non-Cypriots get on with the priest of the village (my curiosity may not extend to towns). I will not say anything further here but I shall do after I see what you post.

I have a Cypriot friend, whos brother is a priest, when we have attended family gatherings with them, apart from his church duties, you will find him on a tractor, hard working humble man. but I dont live in a village and only see him maybe a couple of times a year, it might be more helpful if you give members a clue in what you want to find out?

When we lived in Cyprus, the village priest and all his family, always acknowledged us if we were out and about in the village. They always waved if we passed them in the car too.

I have to say that it was my husband and I that made the first friendly approach. It paid off.

Very friendly.

The only Cypriot priest I have ever talked with socially lives in Fasoula. I remember when I was there photographing for a blog he was at first suspicious of my motives. This was because the village used to be part TC and I guess the locals can get a bit touchy about what people photograph.

Anyway, I told him who I was and what I was doing. Next thing I knew I was drinking coffee with him and eating some rather nice cake.
