Hey guys, any of you been staying in Cyprus long term?
There might be an opportunity for me to move to Nicosia for work reasons. For a capital city, the population is really small.
How is the dating scene like, is it only a place to visit for the summer and cliquey/sausage fest all other times, like most of the Southern european Mediterranean countries? The thread on Greece doesnt give much confidence.
Apparently there are quite some foreign influence from Russia, Romania, Bulgaria etc., how does this affect the scene?
Comments on the economy and the culture will also be appreciated.
Cheers
Cyprus total population is a little less than 1 million. Northern part of the country is occupied by the muslim horde. The conflict is frozen (it won't affect you in any way). It is actually one of the safest places in the world, with very low crime rate.
If you have a job paying you well, coupleld with the Mediterranean lifestyle (sunny weather most of the time, great food, laid back culture etc) Cyprus can offer one of the highest quality of life in Europe IMO.
There are 2 livable cities in Cyprus - Nicosia and Limassol. Everywhere else is practically a small town and can be safely ignored. Limassol and Nicosia have things going on all year-round.
Game:
Cypriot girls (especially those living in Cyprus) are very difficult to bang (but not impossible). They are very reluctant to fuck non-Cypriots, they are cautious of their image (Cyprus is a tiny place) and they are very relationship-oriented. Also social circle game is big here. I'd say average Cypriot girl 18-30 has had 5-6 dicks or less.
The good news for you is even though Cyprus' population is 1m, Cyprus had over 4m tourists last year. Cyprus (especially in the summer) is excellent for game and very target-rich.
You can safely disregard the Cypriot girls and go for the THOUSANDS of European & Russian women living in Cyprus.
There is a big distinction between Nicosia,and the coastal cities (especially Limassol). Nicosia is the worst for game, Limassol the best. Nicosia is more of a 'Cypriot' city, Limassol is more of an 'international' city.
Keep in mind driving from Nicosia to Limassol takes less than 1 hour.
Tinder is dead here.
General comments:
There are many international people living permanently/working in Cyprus, majority European/Russian. The 3 biggest communities in Cyprus are Brits, Greeks, and Russians.
Cypriots are quite openly racist people, in the literal sense of the word (they love white Christian people, they openly hate on muslims/africans/arabs etc)
Clubbing in Cyprus is big if you are into it - some of the nicest clubs in the world.
Most Cypriots are fluent in English so you will have zero communication problems.
There is not much public transportation, you'll need to buy/rent a car.
