Hi Miles and Sue
you are probably talking about the garden of eden.
easiest way to find it first time is go along from tomb of the kings over the traffic lights at the begonia garden centre.
To the next lights where the big church is, turn left.
Its up that road on the right.
Its definitely cheaper than most other places and has a very very good choice of stuff.
The meat counter in there is reasonable too.

Veronica

Hi, I just wanted to say well done with the move. We are planning to move to the Paphos area next year and are coming out this April to look at schools etc. How old are your kids? Have they started at a school yet? Mine are 6 and 8 yrs old and we are currently considering English schools but are open-minded. We are very excited to meet all these people online who are doing the same thing!

Hi Lazer,

The Kids school was the biggest worry we had before we moved. We had intended sending them to an international school but once we started looking at the options when we got here we decided to try to local school in Peyia (Where we live) they started on Monday and the school put them both back 1 year to give them chance to learn Greek! so far so good we thought we would try the local school as if we stay here we want them to be "Local" children and part of the community with friends where we live. the school year ends in June at which time we will review how things are going and take it from there. my kids are 9&10.

if you need any other help or information let me know

Miles (& Sue)
