And if you get there, they don't have it and you wait forever, communist leftovers ;)<BR/><BR/>I'd love to see that turkish part.

I believe that not many tourists from Europe spend their vacation in the Turkish part; all travel to the Greek part exclusively.

In Cyprus there are Greek Speaking Cypriots and Turkish Speaking Cypriots. <BR/>On the other hand, all the flag fethis in the northern part of the island is not because of people there are proud of it, but because of it is about politics and occupation forces put them there. EVERYWHERE!! There is a very strong assimilation in the northern part of the island. Turkey and her army are carrying people from Turkey and giving houses/lands which were owned by Greek Speaking Cypriot pre 1974. They are trying to change everything into Turkish. According to them, Turkish Speaking Cypriots are not Turk enough and so they use their pressure in every step about every subject. And all the world just watch this occupation and assimilation. <BR/>We are CYPRIOTS living in both sides of the tragic "green line" and we are proud of it. We can have different languages but this doesn't make one a better Cypriot than the other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17132364.post-29852887306854672952008-12-14T05:16:00.000-05:002008-12-14T05:16:00.000-05:00Fascinating!For me this is so unfathomable, becaus...Fascinating!<BR/>For me this is so unfathomable, because when I travel it´s just to Canada and back. And it´s all "consumerism" there....<BR/>I dream of traveling to Europe some day and exploring the different country´s, but I know in my heart it will probably not happen. So I´ll just have to "live it" through your blog! Thanks for the interesting report!Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10302111888634922172noreply@blogger.com
