What do people like (and dislike) about Cyprus?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Cyprus, they replied...
"Expats and digital nomads often appreciate the warm climate and relaxed lifestyle that Cyprus has to offer. The cost of living is also relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those looking to stretch their budget. Additionally, the country is known for its friendly locals and welcoming atmosphere. On the other hand, some expats and digital nomads may find the lack of public transportation and infrastructure to be a challenge. Additionally, the language barrier can be a challenge for those who don't speak Greek," commented one expat who made the move to Cyprus.
