- 6 reasons why you should not move to Cyprus. And one of them frustrates me so much that sometimes I'm thinking about leaving Cyprus because of it!
Obviously I'm not leaving Cyprus, but I think it's important to mention the negative things as well.
Some of the 6 things are more serious than others, let me know in the comments if there is something that I forgot or that annoys you!
If you're planning to move to Cyprus, definitely make sure to watch this video until the very end and if you need assistance with your relocation you can reach out to me via Riardogorski.com.
Thanks for watching! :)

I stopped watching it when you started with Earthquakes... Out of thousands of reasons, this is what you could come up with?
Dude complained about how bad Germany was and that's why he left, and now he's complaining about Cyprus too, will he ever be satisfied? Or is this just content?
Every day there are earthquakes in Cyprus. We do not feel them 😅😅😅
Sometimes even my Four Rottweilers do not wake up 😅😅😅 during the earthquakes. 😂😂😂😂
I'm from a place where there are almost no natural disasters of any kind or severity (yes, those places exist) and I wouldn't want to move to a place where there can be earthquakes, so I definitely understand his point of view on that matter. 🤷
I lived in Paphos for 3 years and can’t remember ever feeling an earthquake
Everything about in Cyprus for me is perfect 14 years working in that country is the best experience 😊❤❤❤❤
Cypriot here born and raised, been living in London for the last 8 years so I've seen how the country has changed and can compare it to a bigger country. Though I understand your video is an attempt to get some views (and I know you have lots of positive videos about Cyprus and like living here), a lot of the stuff you say are either untrue or randomly cherrypicked and they are definitely not the main issues in the country.
Some commentary:
1. Earthquakes really don't happen that often, it's once every few years. And they're never bad enough to cause any destruction, just a short inconvenience.
2. Gun regulations do exist, and a lot of people also have assault rifles stored in their homes from the mandatory military service. However, unlike Americans, we don't actually shoot other people with them. If you look like a rabbit and are walking on the mountains during hunting season maybe be afraid yeah.
3. There's some very nice beaches around Paphos and Ayia Napa/Protaras (on the free side of the country), the worst ones are in Limassol. I've been to Bali and I found most of the beaches there worse to swim in to be honest (though definitely looked more beautiful because of nature).
4. This is true for every national of a cold country, you are not used to the temperatures we have here. Still, you know you are moving to a hot country beforehand, I don't see why it's a surprise.
5. The salaries and living costs are definitely a huge issue and the gap between them has been increasing over the last decade mostly due to rich(er) foreigners moving here and setting camp for their businesses. Especially from a particular country (*cough* Russia *cough*).
6. It's true that very often people in Cyprus are not the most professional (especially in government positions), however they are very helpful and friendly so if you do an effort to reach out you'll be sorted relatively quickly. Most importantly, because we are not a huge country you can actually talk to an actual person and not wait for any long queues, unlike big countries like in the UK. We also have very good doctors that are inexpensive (50E per visit) and you can book an appointment quickly (though the new ΓΕΣΥ system has made this worse), unlike the NHS in the UK where you have to be either dying to get some decent service or wait 3 weeks to see a clueless doctor that will give you some sugar-pills and tell you to just get some rest. If you had something bad show up in your blood test they would definitely have called you. Also I've done many blood tests and the email with results always comes through the same day or the next day, haven't had any issues.
Some actual issues in the country include:
1. Massive Corruption
2. Salaries and cost of living (like you said). 10 years ago this wasn't really an issue.
3. Bad road infrastructure that has led to insane amounts of traffic and making it impossible to find parking spots (at least in Limassol)
4. Even though people are very friendly and open, we are generally very careless about other people (eg driving without signalling, parking in the middle of the road). Also a lot of people have a very old-fashioned or backwards mentality, which in combination with (1) and (2), makes it hard for the country to evolve (since a lot of the more forward-thinking people leave to work abroad).
5. The market for buying electronics or certain other items is a bit bad - often companies sell items that came to the market 2-3 years ago in the original price, and don't have something more recent. We are up to date with phones and video game consoles though. Also expect to pay a small premium for the merchant having to ship everything over. Ordering stuff online takes ages to arrive to your house.
6. Lack of anonymity. This can be good or bad depending on what you prefer, but generally if you've been living here long enough it's hard to go out without bumping into someone you know. London is on the other extreme, where it actually almost feels like you are alone in the city.
Very insightful
Thanks for info, I've been thinking about opening video game company there in the future.
@@UniDeathRaven nice
Yes, that's true... I could say more. I live here all my life and it is extremly difficult to get a minimum-wage job. You have to know at least 2 languages, if you want to compete - 3. Employers don't really want to hire and fire you really easily.
Generally living as an introvert here is hell. People consider it rude, when you do not share info about you, and ask too personal stuff... On interview I MUST share such things on order to even have a chance on being hired, in a lot of places they want people to look modest: no piercings (sometimes even earings) or colorful hair.
@@Dasercs Do the greek part of Cyprus speak well english ?
As a Cypriot, I expected to hear a complaint about noise. I once had a German neighbor, who was complaining to me every time I would use my chainsaw, wash my car, and generally everytime I would do anything with machines and power tools
Germans just like to complain
That is typical !
Germans used to have strict rules about when and what you could do. If he didn’t like the Cypriot way of life then he shouldn’t have stayed in Germany . We had an Austrian neighbour for some years. She was as mad as a box of frogs.
Then again: chainsaw, compressors and generally power tools are for work so that's what in Cyprus 6-7 hours a week? Then to relax you would play the battery, listen to Jungle and experiment with little amounts of C4? Sounds as relaxing as Corsica or Sicily! The only moment is during food and the almighty nap.
We are also from Germany my husband liked here in the beginning he is very positive person ,but even he is now disappointed of Cyprus, very messy unorganized country ,also with highest rate of tobacco smokers
I am Cypriot and I have also lived in Germany for six years. Cyprus has many things that you don't mention which are not nice, some are even bad. What you mention in your presentation is shallow research. Earthquakes? Really? Yes, it is perhaps easy to get a hunting gun, but it is not like everybody carries a gun to solve personal issues. Of course you will see the nicest pictures of the beaches. If I plan to visit Germany and google it, wouldn't I see nice pictures? Yes, we are very un-organised people. Yes, we procrastinate, and this is very annoying. No excuse about it. When I was living in Germany I loved how organized and disciplined Germans are. You take Germany, one of the most organized countries (used to be) as a measure to compare Cyprus. I travel a lot in Europe. Neither Germany, nor Europe is what they used to be in terms of discipline or organization. Just saying
Germany is Germany and I lived there for 6 months and found the people very stiff and unwelcoming. I am English. Cyprus is Cyprus and if you don't embrace it - warts and all - then just leave.
I don't think germans are unfriendly I am also foreigner. I think cypriots are not so friendly either.
As a cypriot living in the US I laugh at your complaints about gun control.
Rico i disagree with the first 4 reasons,1) the last 20 years Cyprus had 2 or 3 earthquakes,2) To get a hunting license you need to go to the army for 1 year (army is mandatory for every male), you need clean criminal record, and you need to pass exams (you have to know all the animals etc). 4) Clean pretty beaches are not rare, only in Famagusta area you can find more than 10 amazing beaches. The last 2 reasons i agree
You forgot to mention that 90 - 95% of conversations between middle aged and older Cypriots always involve food. I'm half Cypriot myself and this literally DRIVES ME CRAZY. Its as if they have no other things to think about other than food. As a Cypriot this is something I'm embarrassed and ashamed about.
lol
Every nation have its standard chat. Here in Sweden, we always talk about the weather, because it often time it sucks. So at least the food in cyprus is delicious 😄
Here in Germany we only talk about work and studies 😅
In Poland it's only about politics, bad weather and rising prices :D I prefer talking about food. So it's another reason to move there.
San to fain tis kipru eneshi. I zoi en gia na tin sherese je to fai prosferi tutin tin xara
Germany, fast and professional? You kidding? As an American, I go nuts whenever I visit Germany with immense bureaucracy, exceptionally negative people, almost complete lack of customer service, closed Sundays, low speed internet, archaic banking, houses with no air conditioners, trains running late, etc. Germany is a joke when it comes to speed and efficiency.
I’m German and I agree
True but Cyprus isn't any better
Amerecans...
Go back to Germany maybe? I have been to Germany and people were so rude towards me! Not speaking English on purpose and much more. I believe you need to go back to Germany 👏
Hi dear u looking nyc
People aren't rude in Germany, I am also foreigner they were mostly nice to me. Cypriots are not so friendly either.
OK , I thought he was going to say something about the graffiti THAT IS EVERYWHERE or the rubbish driving , or the stray cats that all look sick or the fact that a lot of the buildings looks unfinished or just scruffy , and how many people smoke . BUT no this guy is warning that a Mediterranean island is sunny , and the beaches are crowded .
True people smoke here so much , my neigbours smoke on balcony all the smoke comes to my bedroom, disgusting, wish to leave here. Also the bad condition of the sidewalks ,so many cars ,many very old cars which poison the air. Cyprus is nice only if u are tourist in a hotel or if you live in a modern house with pool.
I spent almost two weeks, mostly in Northern part and here is my list of issues:
- crazy traffic that in some places looks worse than midtown Manhattan
- sidewalks that look like an afterthought
- beaches are polluted with plastics, glass, building materials
-dirty streets
- crappy public transportation
- besides gasoline, everything seems to be expensive
. As someone who is from africa and lived in cyprus i didnt experience any of this. The beaches in limmasol, paphos and aya napa were absolutely breath taking. Never experienced earth quakes and its island life so of course its going to be slow. The gun thing is so dumb because you have to speak on stuff from experience not from what you have heard. I found the cost of living better than in my own country. My salary was enough for me and my son to live off of and he went to the british school too. I also started my own business there doing makeup and nails for brides coming from England to get married as i am english speaking. The weather was amazing but like i said i am from south africa so we get temperatures of 37 degrees. I never sunburned because on the beaches you can hire umbrellas if you forgot. The ONLY complaint i had of cyprus was the amount of cats. 😂 cause i am allergic but other than that i was so so sad to leave - thanks covid - and hope i get to see the country again 💖
We aren’t considered earthquake prone country since we arent on a tectonic plate boundary, we have never had severe earthquakes and most ppl don’t even feel them cause of how weak they are but generally we don’t get earthquakes, probably got 4/5 in the span of 20 years, so this is some bs in my opinion
Thanks for making the video, sounds like Cyprus and Sicily have a lot in common!
My family are Cypriot & go there frequently. I never heard of an earthquake there, especially noting noticeable
NHS in the UK is even worse unfortunately
"Bestellt und nicht abgeholt" 😂.. Das ist leider in einigen Ländern so. Auf jeden Fall ein tolles Video mit wertvollen Infos. Mein Abo hast du 😊
We live in Cyprus already three years, we also came from Germany. In the beginning we lived in a rental house in Protaras, it was really nice there , but the rent got too expensive, so we had to move to Deryneia to cheaper appartment, but we don't like here at all because of the neigbours, they smoke all evening on balcony which is next to our bedroom, all the smoke comes to our balcony and bedroom ,we cant open the window doors , we told them so many times that they should smoke far from us , but nothing changes ,now is summer we can't open windows at night we have to use air conditioner, because they smoke at 3 o'clock, but not only they, most of the neigbours smoke. I wish to leave here as soon as possible, also maybe leave Cyprus, many people here smoke so much ,never had any problem with a smoker in western Europe lol .
Also all the car driving is annoying all the time ,they use cars for everything. People don't like to walk here even in Nikosia i was there once i saw very few people outside, only cars .I guess one of the reasons are the poor condition of the pavements, they are missing sometimes so that you have to walk on the road for the cars which is dangerous. Also some outside parking places are in bad condition, not concreted at all, tgere are many roads in bad condition, missing sidewalks, trash bins on the streets which look ugly and when they are full, people put the trash bags just next to trash bins which wind blows everywhere.
Cyprus is nice for tourists or if you live in a beautiful house with pool and close to the sea. It has beautiful beaches indeed i like Protaras very much but unfortunately it's closed in winter a bit boring without people. We also lived in Spain which i think is cleaner ,has more beautiful cities and is better organized than Cyprus.
This is not a serious video, this is a hilarious video. Cyprus is not paradise but is definitely a better place to live and work than Germany.
Thank you
Can you express why?
i cannot agree more @panagiotis9688
Cyprus has very low salary ,how can it be better than Germany ?
do your own research please
i saw your video 4 months ago
now..... iam living in Cyprus
how has it been so far?
recommended for an remote worker?
is it easy to make good money there?
@saifnasser188 no the salary is too low
I've been living here for nearly 3 years. Earthquakes don't bother me too much (haven't been many) and that is new to me.
I agree with the wages being low and cost of living high, especially in Limassol.
But I'm surprised you didn't mention the parking situation and the driving.
I have no regrets moving here.
Do u think somebody live comfortably on 14.5k TL a month
Sorry what is TL?@@trinibaduk9012
earthquakes?))) are you kidding??? I have been living there for 1-3 months almost every year since 2010 and I can say its nothing in comparison to:
1) terrible rental prices in comparison to the salaries on the island
2) lack of rental properties because of its occupied by resellers, rich refugees and relocants
3) low salaries. Local business just loves to employ migrants that agree to work for 500-600 euro in terrible conditions.
4) Cosmic level of bureaucracy and its slowness. You may wait for weeks to get a super simple thing done just because of state executives are drinking frape all the day along and they dont give a huck somebody goes bankrupt because of the delay.
5) You definitely need to have native relatives or have a tons of euros to establish and develop a business there. If you are just a single xenos (allien) then nobody will talk to you. Your limit is a tourist status. Nothing more.
6) Language. You have to learn it very quickly otherwise you will be always treated as 3 grade allien who can be cheated, who will always pay triple price for the things locals are paying just a normal price.
So these are the real 6 things that could make your life hard there. But I will add that in comparison to Paris, Cyprus is a very friendly and safe place. French almost all the time play they dont speak English, even the airport staf. Cypriots will speak English because in the orient the guest should not be humiliated if its a regular tourist for example.
PS.
Also the 7th argument could be the medical care system which is terrible but its a normality in EU nowadays. As an allien you should always have a private medical assurance and 300-500 euro for an urgent visit to private clinics like Meditteranean hospital in Limassol. I've been through it couple times so I know more or less the system.
I agree with most of your points here except the part about language. It does not matter where you move to, you SHOULD learn the language of the country you are going to live in. I know that in Cyprus we are more relaxed with foreigners just using English, unlike the Germans for example, but that does not mean you should expect to assimilate into society without learning Greek. Greek is the OFFICIAL language here and so, you need to learn it. I cannot speak about being cheated on prices if you do not speak the language, but if that happens then that is awful and needs to stop!
Well, i think you forgot how the life is in Germany 😂
A wifi company here will show up for their appointment but it will have to be set for 1-2 months in advance. Same goes for doctor appointment and they will NEVER call you back if your test result is fine.
It's the same in Cyprus. In fact, for certain doctors the waut list is 5 mounths...
Well for some doctors you have to wait long months in Cyprus too, for example orthopedist or endocrinologist
Hi Rico, I am thinking of moving there with my family. I am a teacher and have a job but my partner should find a job. From what you have seen so far, are chef jobs easy to find? Are they well paid? Many thanks!
No they aren't easy and salary is very low here, Cyprus got expensive
I lived Cyprus 12 years,after 4 I still regret leaving it,is so rare places like this to live because to many big towns
Cyprus beaches are not all amazing ! For starters on the Greek side most beaches are pebbles . Ayia Napa has sand from Egypt . A lot of their beaches are heavily commercialised . That is hotels, night clubs , cafes and restaurants. Everything you said is correct but I never experienced earth quakes though .
I was there 1984-1987 - British Army - I remember a couple of earthquakes.
Lol, fun times! Thx!
Cyprus is a Heaven. They respect life and celebrate it. 🥳 🎉
Siga Siga and relaxed through life instead of a programated robot like in DE.
Heaven for tobacco smokers maybe 😂
I was there for 2 years. If I win the lottory I will move there. Love from Armenia. Miss Cyprus :(
what a bunch of lies . As a Cypriot I can tell you that the first 3 points are bullshit , and I still haven't finished the video. SMH
Cyprus has lovely beaches
I agree with all of this cause I lived in Cyprus 🇨🇾 Paphos for 7 years it’s not so great like it’s advertise in the media 😅😅😂 so I moved back to America 🇺🇸 at least here it’s a sistem in place and great health care system more advanced and clean. The Beaches are amazing in Florida, California etc …
I was a fan of you but some of your points are thoughtless and you need to rethink some of your points!
Earthquakes in Cyprus ? Not to my knowledge. Yes sunburn is a serious risk and normal precautions are needed. Yes Cyprus is chilled out, Is that a problem, I think not.
It's true you tell about blood after call you from hospital tomorrow has no call its same banks
I was in a very big earthquake in Germany in the 90’s. The biggest earthquake they had in 200 years apparently…
I’m in cyprus and nothing happens
My parents were born in cyprus 🇨🇾
Sunburn? Seriously?
Is it safe?
Very safe
@@trinibaduk9012 there is no stupid migrant problems like in other countries right now? Too much crime...
Why don't you say that Cyprus has very high rate of tobacco smokers????
I love Cyprus 🇨🇾 it’s beautiful and better
Well respected
I live in Cyprus in limassol the biggest city!
"Being born in Germany I am used to getting things done fast and efficiently" piss off bro, Deutsche Bahn is almost always late, bureaucracy in most of Germany is a nightmare and some services still expect you to use fax or mail. What are you even on about ? I am not saying Cyprus is like way better but come on, Deutschland ain't much better.
Bureaucracy in Germany is by far more than that in Cyprus! No comparison whatsoever! Not to mention the hostility towards visitors and general "Ausländer"! When did you last time visited Germany?
Thank you for this video 🙏
I am right now in Cyprus looking around to see if we should move here. We live in Malta now. I have one prerequisite to buy a property. No German neighbors who will try to tell us how to live. I am German.
For sure Cyprus is bigger than Malta
I wish I had german neigbours than cypriot or bulgarian, at least they don't smoke
I think cyprus is more interesting than malta
so when are you moving back to germany? please do a video about it...
Northern Cyrus or Southern Cyprus?
Occupied Cyprus or Cyprus
@@KTLaz bla bla 😂
You should leave immediately.
Thanks good dont come back !
An Earthquake that went on for 2-3 minutes? Are you sure ? I think the whole island would have collapsed if it went on for that long lol , I lived in Cyprus for 20years in the the late 70s up until the 90s and every country has its good points & bad , so my dear friend of you made this video to get some hits well you got one off me but best you stay in your own country & pickup on bad things about Germany & leave Cyprus alone
You are exaggerating 😅 and twisting things, and you making things sound far worse than they are. A very small part of what you are saying is true (salaries and sun which can be generalised around south EU), but like many German bloggers, you are “registered” here only for tax reasons… and only 6 months a year. So technically 😊 you are not living here …
One comment for u, "Get well soon".. hope u will get citizenship of Mars very soon. GOD BLESS U..😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mate sounds a lot like Italy if you ask me...
I stopped renting to Germans because they are so nitpicky about everything. Cyprus have its flaws. BIG flaws, but the reasons you mentioned are so trivial.
We are also germans and we will never rent an appartment again in Cyprus, almost every neigbour smokes here .
You counted freedom to own firearms as a CON?
Move to the US if you want a firearm and become part of the problem.
@@user-jl8wg2eh3f I am in the US and plan to move to Texas and collect plenty of firearms.
Do you belive all these you are talking about .??
Just go back to Germany! Why get stressed out.
Click bait from a sensitive content creator. Sad to see creativity can go so far.
Hey bro hope you feel well I am in Cyprus and I would like to meet you according property.
Please let me if possible
Best regards
Robby
Hey Robby, please reach out to me via cyprus (at) ricardogorski.com , speak soon!
Let us call you a cab to the airport
Rico, the way you speak is not very friendly, it is like speaking down. There is no warm and softness. It is hard to listen to.
It is indeed. Mr Know-it-all cannot imagine that there could be anything outside his experience. Entitled, arrogant loudmouth. Ruining the reputation of Germans abroad once more.
Things done Fast and professional in Germany ? Really? When did you last time visited Germany? Have you ever tried to travel DB? Have you ever bean in China? This Germany you are dreaming about no longer exists, sorry.
I would to comment the same 😅
Well compared to messy Cyprus Germany is fast in many things , for example court takes here 5 years to decide . In Germany only some months or a year
Is this a joke
Don't laugh. I didn't understand the German joke?
You are a German. Aren't you.? Why do not speak your language.?
If you moved to England mate, you would have 66 annoying things, not just 6. 😂
Hi Rico, I am thinking about moving to Cyprus. I have two questions:
a) is crypto to crypto trading (BTC/USDT or BTC/ETH) as an individual taxed in Cyprus?
b) are you sure that day-trading stocks in Cyprus are tax-free? How about Badges of Trade? If you trade super-frequently, is it still under a capital gain tax of 0%?
Hey, please reach out to me personally with these questions. The contact form is in the video description. Talk soon!
@@Rico only instagram? I don't have Instagram. Could you please answer the questions? Those are the main entry points..
b) definitely is 100% true, futures, options, obligations, forwards, swaps, adr, gdr, repos, trusts too
rico go home... Germany is prefect ... cyprus is only fantastic,,, this man is a complete knob
Hes chatting poo 💩 with majority of stuff
Thanks for your comments. I have some replies to clarify a few things:
Getting the blood test is typically requested by your doctor, whether from a hospital or a private clinic, you deal with a doctor to provide you with the results. Also all laboratories offer to email you the results to yourself and your your doctors. I am surprised you had an issue with that, it rarely happens here even in negligent big hospitals. In most cases, it takes no more than 3 days to get the results.
I must admit, seeing German residents in Cyprus is rather strange as it is a very incompatible combination 😀. However, it f you are an uptight German, please remember you are in a different country with habits unlike yours.
One thing will be confronting to any European or civilised resident, which I am surprised Rico did not mention is the disturbing topic of stray cats. Cypriots are not pet people in general, though the new generation is taking a better approach, the problem remains significant with third-world dimension. People in Cyprus don’t care and their government is corrupt and not interested in resolving the issue to make the place look civilised.
You will witness dead cats and dogs on every street and motorway. Whilst animal cruelty is rare, neglect is in your face just like Romania and Bulgaria were 20 years ago.
I am involved with a German charity group to help alleviate the problem at our expense using our own time, efforts and resources.
If you are a pet owner or animal lover or simply a caring person you will be confronted with gruesome images and heartbreaking scenes of misery and neglect DAILY.
I always wish that with every civilised European relocating to Cyprus I might have a helping pair of hands and some empathy for creatures that are dependent on us. It is shocking that the EU is still allowing the Cypriots to behave with the current level of impunity when it comes to such a topic.
It's no longer a safe place to move to as warship guns are being fired and turkey in north supports other side.
lol google translator english 😂
Please do leave and stop complaining
I had blood tests via GESY - the blood was taken at 8am and I had the results online via the GESY portal at 2pm the same day - I think you were just unlucky in this instance.
All your points are inaccurately exaggerated, I understand that you want to create content and get views , but that's not cool.
Hm i think for every foreigner is a struggle to do things abroad. I live in Sweden and is a struggle to do even the simplest thing. In Cyprus everything is done quick and easy for me because i am a native Cypriot. Unfortunately it works like that in every country in the world
@@oceanwave4142 Well Sweden is a very expensive place to live, but still the bureaucracy is a disaster 😀
@@oceanwave4142 Wow, it sounds that San Diego is more expensive than almost every European city.
As i said before from my experience low tax Cyprus is easier and much quicker for me than Germany (i was living there before) and Sweden. And i think that is because i am a native Cypriot. For native swedes is much easier than me with everything in Sweden.
Maybe is a European thing i don’t know. It sounds like there is less discrimination in North America.
Btw European south has also lovely weather, we have mediterranean climate not tropical ☺️
7. The mediocre domestic beer.
I have had mainly good experiences with the medical system here; I pay everything out of pocket (even though I have a GESY card, I think), but medical services are quite inexpensive here, compared to Europe, let alone the US and A.
I also have good experience with the health system when I'm at the hospital, this was rather an example for the poor communication sometimes.
In what way are Czech or Belgian beers "domestic" in Cyprus?
Among the local brews, Carlsberg is halfway ok, everything with a name containing "EO" not so much. But that is subjective, of course.
And yes, you can buy bottled Leffe, Stella etc. here.
@georgehimself6612
Thank you so much for your reply 🙏 One of the Biggest reasons why I'm moving to EU countries is to enjoy affordable Real European beers & wine 🇪🇺🍻
So, If Cyprus can't offer it, I'll not move there. YES, Belgian beers like Leffe & these 11 or 13% strong Belgian beers. Or Beers from Czech and Germany.
I watched other pal's videos about Cyprus supermarket. But I could confirm it. All thanks to you, Mr. Thank you once again 😊🙏
@@fuspsetting meanwhile Cyprus was the first country ever to produce wine and it's excellent. We're also advancing in the beer department. Anw you can fuck off to Germany or Belgium buddy. Go enjoy the the clouds
This dude just got out of ideas and just started bullshiting dude ffs at least try
Go to bed
Wow, du hast absolut anderes erlebt als ich. Lebe hier seit bald drei Jahren. Blutergebnisse, Ergebnisse nach dem Frauenarztbesuch etc bekam ich bisher immer am nächsten Tag. Sogar sonntags wurde ich benachrichtigt. Meine Schwester in Bayern hat fünf Wochen auf ihre Ergebnisse in Deutschland gebraucht. Genau so wie Einrichtung von Internet usw. hat mich hier sowas von positiv überrascht. Ecotech kontaktiert, am nächsten Tag Internet gehabt. Meine Eltern in Bayern haben ungelegen fast zwei Monate gewartet.
I'm a local and Native Greek-Cypriot with a Russian stepmother and step-siblings, we have rarely encountered any issues with ordering online or slow services. But I know it happens.
Still moving there next year 👍
I spend about two months every year in Cyprus. I know Greek culture quite well and Cyprus culture is very similar. Don´t expect punctuality or much efficiency (mind you I lived in Germany for many, many years and it´s not all what it´s cracked up to be !!). The major issue I have is the amount of rubbish in the streets and open spaces. The locals will dump their old furniture, washing machines, and other household items there, which lie around for months. Niggle number 2 is rising damp. Rain simply falls off the roof onto the ground. No wonder then that ground floor flats often suffer from rising damp, so in the winter, the whole flat is damp; clothes feel clammy, there´s mould on the walls. These are the reasons why I would never live in Cyprus permanently.
Stop bulshitting dude :)
A German in Cyprus??The perfect miss match. We have totally opposing culture lifestyle and expectations. Just enjoy the sun and find the best beaches in the Med.
Yeh exactly, it’s in this guy’s DNA not to be comfortable in a country like Cyprus 🤣
Hey….
I‘ve lived on the island for several years and would love nothing more but doing so again. So, I was curious to hear your points.
Honestly, all you come up with is natural phenomenons, tourism and a lack of intercultural understanding? Points which are -except earthquakes- equally true for your homecountry. Perhaps with a bit of distance your memories of Germany are slightly too fond.
I had expected to hear something about environmental awareness and illegal garbage disposal anywhere which ruins the island‘s biggest treasure: it‘a nature. Or about a real estate market be it sale or rental and increasing cost of living which is totally detached from the income reality of many locals and foreigners.
But perhaps that was too much expectations at my end. I certainly had a few points to talk about but they would never stop me to go back to the most beautiful place in Europe.
!!Κύπρος αγάπη μου ❤!!
Don't move to Cyprus!
Yes we also came from Germany , we want to go back , it's just too messy for us and as expensive as Germany
Of all the reasons you can think to gain views you are really gone to use earthquake?
Gutes Video, mal von einer anderen Perspektive! Meine Kollegen und ich hätten extrem Bock nach Zypern auszuwandern und dort auch unser Unternehmen anzumelden nur sind wir uns etwas unsicher wegen dem Krieg da im Nahen Osten ob es nicht auch kritisch für Zypern enden könnte da es quasi ein "Nachbarland" ist.
Wäre cool wenn du mal ein Video darüber machen könntest, falls du solche Themen ansprichst, da es relativ politisch ist 👌
Als ich letzten Monat dort war, war der Krieg überhaupt kein Problem. Glaube es geht mehr um den Konflikt mit der Tuerkei, der da immer noch im Hintergrund lauert.
Danke dir! Zypern ist in der EU und hat mit den Konflikt nichts zu tun. Falls Ihr sonst noch Fragen habt oder Unterstützung beim Auswandern braucht, meldet euch gerne. Lg aus Zypern!
hi, great video BTW can you make a vid about hospitals schools and universities?
Hi, I have a video about the Cyprus health care system on my channel.
ok thank you@@Rico
I understand that moving to a new country can bring about different challenges and adjustments. However, it's important to remember that embracing a positive mindset can greatly contribute to a fulfilling experience.
Instead of focusing on the negatives and constantly complaining, I encourage you to explore the beauty and opportunities that Cyprus has to offer. Try immersing yourself in the local culture, engaging in activities that interest you, and connecting with the community. By doing so, you may discover new perspectives and find joy in your new surroundings.
Remember, every new journey comes with its own set of challenges, but it is how we approach and overcome them that truly defines our experience. I believe that with an open mind and a willingness to adapt, you can create a fulfilling life in Cyprus.
Taking some of the points you mentioned I’ve found the complete opposite for instance the gun laws here are strict especially trying to own a pistol whilst a hunting rifle is a much easier proposition quite rightly .
It’s obvious that you will get sunburnt if you stay in it to long but the same can be said for any hot country .
The beaches are simply breathtaking you just have to know where to look !
I have never experienced such a great healthcare system
Superb doctors are everywhere and the hospitals are mostly new and possess the latest equipment , as for blood tests I think it’s the best in the world , you can get your blood test results in two hours !
Yes I agree the basic salary is low at 1,000 euros but this surely depends on your career choice as you are hardly likely to put Cyprus at the top of your get rich quick list !
Of course you will have to keep your eye on utilities workers and builders as an example but again the same can be said for any where else in Europe .
If you want to make a small fortune in Cyprus come with a big one !
I personally think the points you raise have no substance whatsoever and you have used examples to create content for your video .
As one of the gentlemen has commented “ it’s a bit of a useless video and I am in full agreement.
Thanks for your comment. I've made hundreds of videos exploring the beauty and opportunities Cyprus offers. This was a video to raise some of the things that I've not yet talked about.
@@Rico 👍🏻 My best wishes to you and Ruby 😊
@@Rico I feel I should mention I have more than a passing interest in the healthcare system as my Cypriot wife is a Doctor ! I know how hard she works to provide the type of care you would expect .
@@stevensofroniou I have a separate video about the health care system in Cyprus, where I share my positive experiences as well. :) All the best to you!
@@Rico Thank you Rico I shall look forward to watching that 🤝😊
Healthcare here actually isn't as bad as you make it seem. It's way better than th me US because it doesn't cost a fortune and much better than the UK because you won't have to wait months before you get checked out
Besides the animals killing, it doesn't sound too bad. The earthquakes if it's like Israel then it's not that bad at all, same for the heat, I mean yea, in summer it's quite hot..
Oh.. ok.. the health thing.. a bit scary..
Guy talks so much crap.
well i moving there, ireland is worse, i was waiting 8 years to see a ear doctor.
ok seems like you lost your hands too in those 8 years
???
dont understand
