Any other expats living in the mountains
We live near Kakopetria, up in the Troodos Mountains but have yet to find any other expats in the area, that is to say this side of the mountain. We would love to meet up with other UK expats, who enjoy the mountain air, especially in this heat.

Re: Any other expats living in the mountains
I was up the Troodos Mountains about 3 weeks ago now and i did bump intoa few expats in a taverna but cant remember the name it was about 10 klm from omodos so there are expats around you will just have to look around some are speaking greek so you may not know they are expats.
Im now back in London and will head to asia next week but i hope to return to cyprus oneday soon
Goodluck.

Re: Any other expats living in the mountains
Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply. Omodos, a lovely village, is unfortunately the other side of the mountain, which is quite a drive away. We have heard of expats living near Galatta and Astromeritos, but the villages are few and far between and often are 'working' villages and therefore do not have the types of meeting place that Kakopetria has. Hopefully someone who lives on the north side of the mountain will see this. Kind regards

Blimey Mycroft, I always thought you lived in the foothills somewhere between Limassol and Troodos. I didn't realise you were in the back of beyond

Oh yes, we are up the mountains, in the cool fresh air, away from the humidity.
