5 Reasons NOT to Come to Cyprus!

Those are my 5 biggest reasons why you should NOT come to Cyprus. Yes, there are some interesting points, so make sure to watch this video until the end!

I love Cyprus, but with everything, there are of course some negative sides as well. So I thought I will make a video about things that I DON'T like, and things that you maybe won't like as well.

This does not mean, Cyprus in general is bad, this just means I want to be transparent and tell what annoys me sometimes. And as I live here for more than 3 years, I think I've got enough experience to be able to say that there are some little downsides of Cyprus.

If you are coming to Cyprus for holidays, or if you are planning to move here, this video is perfect for you! Listen closely and let me know in the comments if you think those are valid drawbacks, or not.

And yes, those may be some disadvantages, or negative sides of Cyprus, BUT Cyprus has a lot of good sides as well. So before you judge, make a deeper research and then come to your own conclusion.

On my channel you will find other interesting and positive videos about Cyprus, so I'd be happy to see you in another video as well! :-)

I'm Cypriot, and I think you've been very fair - believe it or not, the points you mention frustrate us, too! Don't go anywhere though, we're really happy you're here and vlogging about the island!

As a Cypriot i confirmed all of these. We can't fix the sun and temperature but we should fix immediately the siga-siga/slow processes mentality because it makes our life's difficult..

Numbers 4 and 5 are definitely 100% true. As someone who grew up in Cyprus, it is one of the reasons I am looking to move to another country. Also why this country is not moving forward. A bonus reason is the fact that you ABSOLUTELY need a car to move around, public transportation is pretty much non-existent.

Great points Rico! You nailed them. I lived there many years ago and it appears these, I guess you can say negative issues, are still apparent. Nothing has changed! Planning in April after the winter, to move there permanently. Will look forward to your future blogs.

Everything is true what you said…
I can mention 10 things more for not visiting Cyprus and I’m Cypriot

The biggest problem for me is the climate. But also the biggest advantage as a pole. In Poland there is just too cold in like 85% of the time

Number 6: Cypriot ppl not friendly, worst poi I dealt with

[KevinHilding]

Love the new visual setup for your videos! im moving back for a year starting now in November :)

The winter sports centre at Troodos is run by the Royal Air Force but it is open to anybody, Passports, ID cards not needed. Public transport is limited. Otherwise our host speaks good sense.

Just came back from Cyprus. Loved it! We live in Malta but Cyprus is better. More space and better beaches. Looking to relocate there.

[TropicalGardeningCyprus]

All 5 reasons are on point and completely accurate.
As a Cypriot, I could ad another 50 reasons on why no one should move here. I love my country, but it is what it is.

I just left Florida, and a lot of the same things go on there, they are late, we even start our Yoga class late, because it is laid back. In Texas and Missouri doors were locked after class started. I am now in Cyprus, it is different, and everyone said, RELAX……. I AM definitely more about on time, and when I checked in late at a hotel, and no one was there🤷‍♀️?.. but they showed up later😂😂😂I hear you Rico🙌🏻

[ahmetkbrsl]

Laziness and slow mode of people is real problem in both sides.

[ronyzmiri]

Another great video. You hit the important points!

[NasserAlazzawiTV]

Been here 2 years. And my God, the post, appointments and lack of being called back / responsiveness is literally the three things that bug me here.

[gdaaps]

I don't think Cyprus is dry, it's humid instead

[DreamDesign]

Good, very good video! If you are from Denmark or Nederland, or as you Germany... these 5 points could be important, but for me, pure relaxation. The only local habit, which I do not understand is trashing. Surprise me everyday.

Your information on cyprus is all correct .I lived there from uk 🇬🇧 88 to 97 now back to UK. I found paphos was very slow in work and basically everything. I lived in Nicosia which was good for work .also good on time like electric s and mechanics. Limassol also busy in the winter and Nicosia. But comparing Cyprus to bigger richer countries. Cyprus does very well, dont forget 1974 Cyprus took a good beating by turkish Invasion loads of people got killed women and children raped the island was in economical brake down .

[mandar.vaidya]

I came 6 months before in limassol .... thanks for your video
