hi trish , thans for the information you gave us. we have been to cyprus last year, nissi beach and we had a fabulous holliday, we adored cyprus and hired a car in our second week and travelled to trodos mountains, pathos and nicosia.
We have been to spain,salou and the canaries of which we particularly liked fueteventura but after a little research we think from a schooling point of view would be unsutable which is a shame.as my husband is a ceramic tiler do you think he would find work plentiful? I dont really mind what work i do although with having a young daughter it would have to be part time. we also have two grown up sons, one of whom is in the armed forces and the other who is only eighteen is desperate like us to move to a sunnier climate and make a fresh start in a beutiful part of the world, is there a good comunity spirit amongst expats in pathos? and do you know if a lot of the cypriots speak english well and do there children get taught english as a second language? sorry if im bombardingb you with questions but ther is so much we need to know before making the big leap! although you must love it if you are considering moving there, look forward to your reply, many thanks, shane and tracey
