Cyprus-Alive

Team Get-together & Awards Presentation

What a lunch we had at the Cyprus Alive Team get–together and award-giving at the Zakos restaurant in Mackenzie. The French are known for great long lunches but Greeks can match them! Our four-hour meze was superb. Thank you Taso!

It was nice to meet the new member of our team, Kalia Nikolau who’s first article has just been posted on the site. It’s on Volkswagen’s sponsored Road Cycling with its Cyprus Gran Fondo.

I felt very proud to have won the December competition with my articles

“The 12 best Wines of Cyprus,”
“Christmas in Cyprus – What’s Different” and
“My Top 12 Retaurants in the Protaras Area”.

Congratulations for their awards also to Christina Nicolaou, who was sadly suffering from winter ailments and unable to be present, and to Giannis Papanastasiou. Did you know that as well as being an island famed for its summer sun, Cyprus also offers winter snow in the Troodos mountains? Check out Christina’s article “Snowy Mountains of Troodos”. If you are interested in diving, check out also Giannis’ article “Guinness World Record in Limassol”.

This is the second team lunch we have had. They have both been great fun and it’s good to get to talk with the other members of the team.  It is good to feel the common energy that surrounds the project we are building. It is exciting to see the build-up of popularity of the site during the six months of our existence to the end of December 2016.
