Aradippou Tales – A Life in Cyprus

• What, and why?

  In mid-2006 Ian & Mandy quit the corporate life and moved to Cyprus to enjoy a slower pace of life. Instead of taking the logical option of flying directly from London to their new home they decided to drive instead. This blog covers some of that trip and the adventures and challenges since they arrived including ...

  • accidentally booking into a German Sanatorium on the trip down
  • having their brand new car impounded by Customs the moment they arrived on the island
  • their continuing efforts not to get lost in their own village
  • renovating a 200 year old cottage up in the hills
