January 2023
January is my favourite month, hmm, mainly because it's a fresh, new year, for us all. It's also the first month of a two-month winter in Cyprus when sunny days will still probably exceed rainy days, we hope by far. It's still shorts & teeshirt weather, normally around 18°C by day, and long sleeves after the sun sets, and don't you just love a nice open fire, in many of our restaurants and bars! ...

December 2022
On that note did you know that the aura of the Mediterranean is a natural source of Iodine, perfect for the immune system?
Lordos Group of Hotels, Larnaca & Protaras
I am delighted to introduce you to The Lordos Group of Hotels as I've worked closely with their 3 hotels and indeed the Lordos family since 1993. They are without a doubt one of Cyprus' leading companies and their 3 hotels certainly excel when it comes to location, comfort, and hospitality. Each hotel with its own specific features, each hotel unique in its own way, all ideally situated in perfect locations, pretty much, right on the beach!
Cyherbia Botanical Park & Labyrinth, Avgorou
It's amazing how many people still didn't know this place exists ... it's situated in the village of Avgorou, and includes beautifully landscaped herb gardens, the woodland area created in the shape of Cyprus, scattered with the endemic trees and shrubs of Cyprus, a Lavender Labyrinth, and it boasts the first and only hedge maze on the island, all 2000 sq.m. of it ...
November 2022
It’s November, my favourite month, mainly coz the long hot summer is definitely over, or is it? coz we predicted we're gonna have another Indian Summer, with temperatures expected as high as 28°C this month it looks like we were right. So, you’ll still be able to wear shorts and tee-shirt by day, and even chill around the pool or pop down to the beach to top up the tan for Christmas, did I just say Christmas? omg! …
October 2022
It’s Autumn, so it’s a bit chilly swimming in the pool in the morning, but it's still warm enough to swim in the sea, sunny enough to get a tan, warm enough to wear shorts and a t-shirt all day and maybe you'll have to put on long sleeves by night, but I don’t think we’ll need a quilt on the bed 'til November
The Trail to Caledonia Waterfalls, Troodos Mountains
Louise was on the 'You are Here Map' ... and directed us towards the country trail to the waterfalls ... this trail crosses the stream several times, now with wooden bridges to help, as last time I went, there were no bridges so you had to take your shoes off and get your toes wet ...
Garden Furniture at Rustic Furniture Collection, Paralimni
What's so special about these designs, is the hydraulic reclining system added to the designs of these chairs and sunbeds. Taking a seat on the first set, a 6-seater, dining table, I have to say was very impressed at how smooth the high-back seat reclined with just a push of the button.
Sanctuary Fitness Studio, Paralimni
Ladies; As I walked in, I immediately thought, ‘wow this place looks the business’, spacious, with lots of mirrors, hanging fresh plants to increase the oxygen levels, above a row of impressive water-filled Aqua Eyedrop Punch Bags, and along the back wall, a line of very
expensive ‘Stages’ Fitness Bikes of Amsterdam … I soon realised I wasn’t wrong.
