Golden Cyprus – Pace of Life in Paradise...

So, you’ve got to that point in your life where you feel that you’ve earned something just for you.  And Cyprus is on your list of places where you might now consider buying a home.  Before you go any further though, consider what you really want.  Things like a slow pace of life, sunshine, a place where the locals are accepting and generally helpful, and also mostly speak English, high quality homes built to earthquake standards, all these may be on your agenda.  If so, then you may care to read on...

I’ll be going through the various attributes (and downsides too) of life for an expat in northern Cyprus, so if this region is on your list, you might want to bookmark this blog.

Let’s just cover a little about this slow pace of life to begin with.  There are parts of the UK who really do seem to know how to take a step back and really enjoy a slower way of doing things – the West Country or up in the Scottish Highlands spring to mind - but compared to these guys, they’re mere amateurs!  It really is delightful to experience a lifestyle where time just doesn’t seem to be an issue.  The downside of course is that when you do want to get something done, the ‘manana’ principle is applying itself in spades.  You know the story about the hole in the roof?  You can’t fix it when it’s raining, and when it’s not raining, it doesn’t matter that there’s a hole in the roof!  It’s a cultural thing though which seems to extend to just about anywhere in the Mediterranean – you’ll find it in the TRNC and it’s certainly not going to change any time soon!  

If you’d like to find out more about living in northern Cyprus, keep coming back to this blog.  Or visit the Golden Cyprus website and leave your details.  We’re working on a free report about life in the TRNC which we’re hoping will be ready to send out soon, so when you register, you’ll be on our list to receive it, free of charge.  And let us know if you’d like an exploratory conversation.  We’re always happy just to talk about the TRNC.  If you’re really serious though, we can discuss the kind of place you might be looking and put an itinerary together for when you come over.  We’ll arrange for transfer from the airport and accompany you around the properties on the list we will have agreed with you.  And if at any time you think that you might like to have your own bespoke villa built, we’ll take you to an English speaking architect to discuss your options.

Hope to hear from you soon J
