Michalis Vrachimis & Yios Automotive Garage Ltd, Paralimni
It must be said that the garage was originally opened by dad, Michalis back in 1976 ... so Anninos grew up with greasy hands ... going on to excel in his studies, he's highly qualified with two degrees in Automotive Engineering, the first in Teesside University from 2010 to 2015 whilst working with Mercedes and BMW and later in Nicosia where he enhanced his Diagnostic qualifications ... in 2009 Anninos re-juvenated his fathers garage workshop with all the latest diagnostic testing equipment with just one goal, to be the best tuning garage workshop in Cyprus ... and it looks like he's well on target!
March 2021 Spring into a Feast!
Green Monday
To celebrate, the Cypriots all go out to the fields to light their BBQ’s with family and friends, on the menu; fresh fish, sea food, lots of fresh salads, fresh and dried fruit, nuts and in fact, anything you can think of, that’s not meat. The theme is fancy dress, they all get face painted, and fly kites and stuff, and btw don’t worry if you’ve not been invited, just go for a walk in any field and you’ll probably get asked to join in, you know Cypriot hospitality n’all …

January 2021
It's January, and normally, in this ‘versatility to the extreme’ country we live in, you can snow board in the Troodos Mountains in the morning and just over an hour later you can be swimming in the Mediterranean Sea … but this year that’s ‘if they let us’ … of course you could do it the other way round, then you can get into some Après Ski and chill in bespoke hotels up in the mountains and then get in a bit of Huskey Sledding in the morning and check out a sunset on another beach in the afternoon tomorrow!
Strength & Spices, Limassol
It all started some years ago, when for personal reasons my father needed to assist with memory loss as he grew older. Dr. Anabtawi aka Mo, has a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering but he's very scientific, coupled with countless years of experience as a registered nutritionist, creating a formula of 23 natural ingredients that were blended together to create their Memory Booster. The results were almost immediate and samples given to friends and when he got re-orders, Strength & Spices were born ...
Inside Out Joseph Ohanian
I wanted to chat about his music coz this guy excels here, saying "when we put a song together, it's all done right here 100%, written and recorded, maybe a little help with guitar, but everything is recorded in parts, no loops, including the drums and keyboard, with no compromise, you know, what happens, happens" ...
December 2020
Why not visit one of our fine harbours, in every major coastal city, with a few boat trips and fishing trips and friendly fish taverns that’ll even cook your catch for you. There’s enough bars open to get sloshed in and even more restaurants, especially in the villages, providing that home from home feeling around an open fire, maybe a little live music, but remember Cypriots live for the table, so be warned, in the festive season you’ll probably put on a few kilos
Husky Sledding Cyprus, Mount Olympus, Troodos
"we were up in the Troodos mountains, letting the dogs taste a little snow, run around and have fun, my friend Garry rented a sled, and while playing with the dogs he just asked me to hand him the leads, and it was amazing, we couldn't believe it, the huskies absolutely loved it, they couldn't wait to pull the sled again and again, wagging their tails and barking to let us let them run ... so we had a purpose built sled specially made for us and now the dogs can do what they do, naturally, and as they loved it so much, I thought why not share this with like minded people".
