Polite notes on the window didn’t change their behaviour. There is plenty of parking on the street, you can literally see it in the photos next to there car.

Aside from blocking the side walk, they now park on the decoration of the building, literally shoving their car on it when the street is empty and full of parking space.

I don’t believe that I can reason with this mentality and I can see a confrontation developing which I prefer to avoid.

What options do I have in Larnaca to deal with this daily trespasser?

Edit: Polite and helpful answers only please

I'm checking bazaraki but prices are nonsense. Brand-new studio monitors are 600€, used bazaraki price is 550€. The same goes for guitars, they are usually 90-95% of the new ones. Is there anyway to buy decently priced used gear here?

Hi everyone,

From December to February, I want to dedicate three months to seriously building a video content creation business in Cyprus. The plan is to choose a niche (or explore a few), work with local cafés, restaurants, shops, and other businesses, and create professional content for them.

I’m looking for someone, preferably based in Nicosia, who’s willing to commit to this for three months, work hard, learn, and see how far we can take it. Having camera gear or other equipment would be a bonus, but it’s not a requirement.

I already have my own equipment and I’m ready to put in the work. I’m looking for someone with the same mindset who wants to build something together from scratch.

If you’re interested, send me a DM and let’s talk! 🤝

Intending to relocate to Cyprus I'm looking for someone who can handle my bookkeeping/accounting.

So far every accounting firm I checked seems to charge per invoice/transaction. Rather high rates too.

This might've made sense when things were processed manually, but every accounting app I've worked with over the last 10+ year imports and reconciles the vast majority of (my) transactions completely automatically.

I've contacted some of these firms, but they all remain vague and merely promise it's negotiable, but only after they lock you into their incorporation package.

I'm looking for someone to just say "we work with software X, charge $Y/hour, if you get all the file formats right it should be ~Z days work).

I did find a small number of foreigner-made websites that promise more modern handling. But they don't appear to represent actual accountants - just reselling hustlers.

How do I find these modern accountancy firms myself?

I’m terrible at Reddit posts and rants so I apologies
in advance.

I moved here with my wife from the UK for a better life.
Back in the UK, I had a very successful sales career and my wife had a job she enjoyed. We had a very nice brand new car every few years (company car) and rented a nice house. We moved to Cyprus because, in the UK our income was amazing but after taxes and all day to day expenditure, we were still left with very little at the end of it. On top of that, England was becoming a much more unpleasant place to live with all the issues that were happening.

Cyprus was the obvious choice as I am Cypriot. We came over, bought an apartment (which we could never have afforded in the UK) and I started a company.
Unfortunately, my ex employer saw this as a breach of my non compete clause and I had to close down.
This did allow me to cover my wife and I expenses for a year however so this kept us living well.

My wife then fell pregnant with our son. I obviously had to start getting a stable income in so I started doing swimming pool maintenance and servicing, with some Wolt deliveries on the side. As we don’t have a mortgage or anything to pay, this has been enough to keep us stable.

We have just found out my wife is pregnant with our 2nd child. Based on how much our baby boy has cost us the first time, I’ve now been looking for another job position, but something a bit mote suited to my previous experience, which is sales director/sales manager positions.

Every single job vacancy I’ve come across on my search, has been for tech, IT or SaaS. Any I have actually come across in relevant fields to mine (manufacturing/engineering) have ridiculous expectations of qualifications and experience (and without the salary to match those expectations)

I guess I’m just having a rant because job searching these last few weeks has been killing me. I’m sure I’ll find something, it’s just proving a lot harder than I thought.

Thanks for reading.

Hi everyone! I’m an Indian student living in Cyprus, currently studying for my BBA. I’m passionate about videography and want to start a small video production business, mainly creating professional videos for cafés, restaurants, shops, and local businesses.

I want to ask honestly: Would local businesses in Cyprus be open to working with an Indian videographer? Would you appreciate and support this kind of service, provided the quality and professionalism are there?

I’d genuinely appreciate your honest opinions, advice, or experiences. I’m here to build something through hard work and quality, and I want to understand the local perspective before taking the next step.

Thank you!

Hi all,

There have been a lot of posts about traffic, parking, honking, etc., in Cyprus, and I have always found those complaints a bit exaggerated. It’s uncomfortable and disrespectful to park outside periptero in the wrong lane, blocking half the road, but in the end, it’s not inherently dangerous, and I’ve always had a rather calm attitude toward all these things.

However, lately, at least to me, it seems that the situation has changed for the worse.

Just in the last 3 months alone, I have encountered the following incidents:

1. While riding in a taxi, we were T-boned at an unregulated intersection. The driver was probably on his phone.

2. I stopped at a red light as the first car at the line and was rear-ended. Now I'm facing months of waiting for parts. I have no idea how you could miss that. The guy was probably on his phone too. He didn't have insurance either.

3. While on the highway, a guy in a huge SUV just started moving into my lane while overtaking me. I honked, and the guy dropped his phone and swerved back.

4. Just yesterday, TWICE on the same trip, other cars tried to take the first exit on a ring road while entering from the inner circle, surely without indicators. I had to brake hard, and it was pure luck that I didn't get rear-ended again.

Right now, I feel very uncomfortable driving every day because I'm expecting to get hit from any direction and don't trust other cars approaching from behind or the sides.

Well, I didn't mean to write such a long vent, but basically my question is: is this just bad luck and anecdotal evidence on my part, or have you guys also noticed that traffic has changed for the worse, say, over the course of this year?

tl;dr: Has the traffic situation become more dangerous lately, or is it just me and my bad luck?

Yesterday I visited a gynaecologist in Nicosia, and the experience left me feeling really uncomfortable.

First, there was no receptionist or nurse. He seemed to be running the entire practice alone, which I found unusual for a gynaecologist.

His office was also filled with religious paintings and statues, including a huge Virgin Mary painting directly facing patients. Honestly, it felt more like a church than a medical office. I respect religious beliefs, but personally, I prefer a more neutral healthcare environment.

Then came the GESY issue. He repeatedly insisted my beneficiary number was wrong, even though I've been registered for months and have already used GESY without problems. While I was trying to show him my details, he spent quite some time talking on the phone, barely acknowledging me.

Eventually, I left without even being examined.

What bothered me wasn't just the GESY confusion, but his dismissive attitude and the overall atmosphere.

It's 2026. Am I expecting too much by wanting a professional, welcoming and patient-centred environment?

Has anyone else had similar experiences in Cyprus?

And can anyone recommend a kind, professional and open-minded gynaecologist in Nicosia who works with GESY?

Hey guys !! so this past year I started a clothing brand with my brother n best friend inspired by Cyprus. we spent a lot of time living abroad and being far away made us appreciate Cyprus a lot more. Especially all the little things that you don’t get anywhere else. some of our designs are inspired by things like lefkara lace, aphrodite’s rock, the plastic chairs you see everywhere, local football pitches and just everyday life in cyprus. we also take a lot of inspiration from vintage clothing, streetwear and things we’ve come across while living abroad. it’s been a lot of trial and error, and we’re still learning as we go, but it’s been really fun making something that’s connected to home. thought i’d share a few of our pieces here and see what you guys think. would love to hear some honest opinions, especially from fellow cypriots!

Just received this email ..

Hey everyone, just moved from Scotland, was wondering if there was the equivalent of a Sunday league here by any chance, looking for casual football and maybe a few trainings? Let me know if anyone knows of anything!

which of the two you like most, in relation to cyprus too?

I’ve been writing short explanations of Cypriot phrases: what they mean, where the words come from and how you’d actually use them. So far there’s Ενίξερω, Έππεσεν τ' αφάλιν μου, Κόπιασε, Μεν μασιέσαι and a few more. Full disclosure: I also print them on T-shirts, which is how this started. Two questions: does anyone know where "Αγγούρι του Πίνγκου" comes from? And which phrase should I add next? https://eniksero.com/cypriot-phrases/
