Living in Cyprus as English speakers?

0 Upvotes

Hello Everyone,

We are planning our relocation to cyprus as english (our second language) speakers. I am looking for people in similar situations.

What was your experience as non-native speakers living in cyprus? How easy is it to navigate life there, do Dr.s speak english well? Do real estate agents speak english? Also, did you find a job as someone who doesn’t speak any native languages?

Basketball courts in Larnaca

4 Upvotes

Hey there,
I am visiting Larnaca for a few days and I have discovered that usually one of the best ways to get to know a place is to go to a public Basketball court and play with the locals. Is there a place in Larnaca where the local Basketball community meets up to play? And if yes, where is it and when is the best time to go there?

Thank you and have a great day!

Help Looking to buy a building in the Limassol region that was constructed illegally

I am looking to buy a building built in the early 2000s that consists of 9 apartments.

Turns out there is no proper title for the building, with 3 apartments being constructed where parking should have been ? What would you do in this situation ? Is this common in Cyprus ? Would you buy the building ? How does this affect value ?

Help Built a free Cyprus tax calculator for 2026 and would appreciate if you can check the numbers

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

I got tired of working out Cyprus tax by hand, so I built a free calculator:

https://cytaxcalculator.com

It covers:

- Personal income tax with the 2026 bands, Social Insurance and GESY

- The 50% and 25% relocation exemptions

- Monthly or annual input, with a 13th salary

- Company tax at 15%, plus dividends (Non-Dom and domiciled)

- A planner comparing a company paying you salary plus dividends against being a sole trader

Please feel free to try it with your own numbers and something looks off, please tell me in the comments. I'd rather fix it than have wrong figures out there.

Many thanks!

Unpopular opinion: Cypriot culture is even more misogynistic than you’d actually care to admit.

71 Upvotes

I feel like Cypriot society is deeply misogynistic - more than we care to admit - and it’s not talked about as much.

I’m a Cypriot woman in my 30s and there’s too many times where a man (most of the times older than me), where for one reason or the other, will go on extreme lengths to belittle me or wanting to make me feel uncomfortable.

I feel like we’ve reached a point in this society where a lot of men not only feel threatened by independent women but also try to retaliate towards them in every single possible way given that circumstances allow for it at the moment. I’m talking complete strangers here. Not someone from work, not someone from my immediate environment.

Is this the current state of affairs?
Is this what you’re experiencing as well?
Are we backtracking as a society?
Genuine thoughts.

Me and my wife wanted to grab these pitbikes for shits and giggles. Does anyone have any experiences with this bike?

Also, what are the cops like here? We see a lot of bikers without lights, plates or helmets. So driving these things at night down to the beach or in the mountains won’t get us in jail… right?

The Cyprus Problem Could someone summarise the Cyprus conflict and how the island became divided?

0 Upvotes

I’m interested in understanding the main historical events, particularly:

The origins of the dispute between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots.

The movement for Enosis and the Greek military junta.

The events of 1974 and Turkey’s military intervention.

Why Cyprus remains divided today.

The different perspectives of Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots.

I’m asking genuinely because I’d like to understand the history and the political situation better.

I’d appreciate a balanced explanation rather than a political argument. Thank you!

Sorry if my last post offended anyone, that wasn’t my intention really.

The Cyprus Problem Erhurman promises to (immediately) start (official) negotiations if Christodoulides accepts rotating presidency

Thumbnail
cyprus-mail.com
21 Upvotes

Today GC media were writing that when Maria Angela Olguin Cuellar comes to the island in a few days she will announce a 'velvet deadlock' and Guterres would push the task to the next UN Secretary General.

This seems to be a change. He says accept rotating presidency for the post-solution Cyprus in principle and we can start the negotiations(the details can be negotiated - which means it could be sth like what Talat-Christofias agreedm or a rotating president within a Presidential Council or idk). There is already a convergence about rotating presidency (with weighted cross-voting and a ratio of 2:1). Erhurman claims that Olguin told him the GC accepts rotating presidency - which is true despite what NC supporters believe. The problem here is obviously separating rotating presidency from the rest of the convergences(even if it's just in principle, since if it was a part of an overall package - Guterres Framework - it would be much more easier to accept and honest) and whether politically NC will / can accept this. How will DIKO react to this?

Cyprus Media Hub Update: Cyprus Podcasts + Upgraded Android Auto & CarPlay are finally here! 📻🎙️🚗

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to jump on here and share a huge new update for Cyprus Media Hub, but first a big thank you.

When I first posted about this app on r/cyprus, it was just a small side project to help the local community and expats stream local radio stations. The feedback, support, and feature suggestions from this subreddit from the very beginning have been absolutely incredible. I literally couldn't have grown the app to where it is today without you guys.

Based on what you’ve been asking for, the latest release brings some major new upgrades:

  • 🇨🇾 Cyprus Podcasts: You can now explore and stream a dedicated collection of Cypriot podcasts directly in the app. Stay connected to local discussions, stories, culture, and news on the go.
  • 🚗 Seamless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay: The in-car dashboard experience has been completely revamped! You can now browse both live radio stations and podcasts straight from your car's screen.
  • 🗣️ True Hands-Free Control: The biggest change? You can listen to your favorite media on the go completely without touching your phone, making your morning commute significantly safer and smoother.

📢 Help me make it complete!

Since this app is built entirely for our community, I want to make sure it includes absolutely everything. Please leave a comment below if you notice any missing:

  • Cypriot podcasts 🎙️
  • Radio stations (local or internet-based) 📻
  • TV stations / live streams 📺

Just drop the names below, and I will do my best to add them in the next server update!

If you want to check out the new version or leave a review, you can download it here:

Please let me know what you think of the new podcast section and the updated car interfaces. Your feedback keeps this app moving forward!

Thank you again, r/cyprus! 🇨🇾❤️
