paradise



If this, my friends, is not paradise on earth.....then I don't know what is. :)

Hi! I stumbled on your blog and I could not fail to notice that you called Cyprus a paradise. :-)

What is exactly that you like most in the island? Is it the scenery or the weather? Or just the Sun setting in an horizon laced with palm trees?

Don't get me wrong, I am Greek an I liked you calling Cyprus a paradise :-)

Well, I guess in this particular case I just found the view amazing, like paradise. You never get this kind of OH-MY-GOD-HOW-BEAUTIFUL sunsets in my country.

But generally it's the beauty and also the easy-going lifestyle here that i take as a paradise for myself. In Estonia I was stressed most of the time because of work,school and money...and the problems never came one at a time ...they were always together (Never enough time to study, never enough sleep,never enough money).My hands were shaking cuz of stress. But here... I don't remember when was the last time I was really stressed over smth. Here I don't get worried if I have my last 10 pounds in my pocket.You can get by very easily here.

And the beauty..oh the beauty. Of course I'm sure the Greek islands are even more beautiful (as I've heard). Hope I will get there one day as well.
But right now, right here, I feel so good!

I am very glad that you like our lifestyle and I can fully sympathize with stress created by work-money and school problems (believe me; shaking hands is nothing...)

Regarding Greek islands, they are Very nice and too many of them :-)
Mainland Greece -excluding some big cities- is very nice too. That's why we call our country Hellas (Hel=sparkling, Las=Stone)

Keep up the good spirit!

Well, Apis...thank you for stumbling on my blog ;)
