What is it like to retire in Cyprus?
"When we first came to Cyprus we lived in PAPHOS. A very busy City with many cafes,restaurants, night clubs and bars. A huge ex-pat community. Lots of sporting activity," explained a retiree in Poli Chrystopiou.
"Life for a retiree in Cyprus and its surroundings is full of possibilities. There is an active expat community, with many retirees from all over the world living in the area. There are plenty of cultural attractions to explore, from ancient ruins to modern art galleries.
