Update--Paphos time!! We've started the process to move to Tala by londondoc
We spent some time in Paphos in February this year. In the main, it was fabulous - mesmeric, in fact. As I wrote earlier, unfortunately at the time, we got in to the clutches of an overzealous realtor and that blotted the copybook somewhat. But as ...
@phildraper Thanks, Phil. We've agreed terms with a builder and the initial deposit has been paid. We're aimimg to exchange contracts in about 70 days or so. We instructed a very good lawyer (Eleni of Polycarpos) while in Paphos in Feb. Trouble is, ... Read More

Hello all, First off, thanks for the welcome, Julien.My wife and I, along with our young son, are looking to retire to Paphos in 2 or 3 years' time. We've worked as NHS doctors for over 33 and 26 full-time years (respectively) and we feel it is time ...
@phildraper Thanks, Phil. The trouble with renting is that work remains extremely hectic and often-times a 1 week break is a pipedream, leave alone a few months at a time. That makes renting pretty hard. Plus the fact that with a 2 yr off plan ... Read More

@telf Thanks, Telf. I recall watching parts of that video some while ago although I may not have watched it all the way through- it is, as you say, a long-ish one. Day 3 in Paphos and I must say all the family have taken to it like a duck to water. ... Read More

@Peter Ty Thanks for that, Peter. Yes, this NHS pensions issue is likely to be a particularly annoying thorn in the side given we've worked our fingers to the bone for an NHS we have loved (let us leave the weapons-grade lunacy of the politicians ... Read More
