Hello again..!!

Aghh, so I haven't posted in a while, as I'm a super busy bee at the moment! However, I have just travelled to the beautiful country of Cyprus so thought that I'd share some of my visits/sights/stunning little finds with you... 


I'm a regularly visitor to this breath-taking island so if you're planning on visiting the country I have a few places that you MUST visit, no excuses! 

If you're travelling to the southern side you definitely need to give Paphos a visit- this is a tourist destination without the tack of the usual. For cocktails visit Mare Mare, Suite 48 or Muse. You can watch the sun set over the sea at all three! Here's some cocktails and ahhh mascot view that I enjoyed at Suite 48 (and sunset view above)...


If you're eating in Paphos again I would recommend Muse for extra large extra yummy meals at reasonable prices. The selection for starters, mains and desserts is great- but I doubt you'll manage all three! I could list a fare few places to eat in Paphos but to save the boredom here are my top 5...

1. Muse for a variety of dishes from chicken to fish to super duper size salads! Muse has it all! (Their waffles for dessert are highly recommended).
2. Porto Bella for amazing Italian food.
3. Fat Mamas! Again, the portions are huge and I'm not complaining. Try Italian from Fat Mama and Mexican-American from Cowboy Willy, both in the same restaurant with table-side entertainment (dancers, singers... you get the gist).
4. La Tarverna. Beautiful- mainly meats and fish the food here is to die for.
5. Phuket for the best Thai cuisine everrrr!

If you're looking for adventure make sure you hire a speed boat and drive to the Blue Lagoon. I'm not one for swimming too much because I have some crazy obsession that I'll be eaten by a shark, but the water here is clear and inviting. Even I managed to have a good few hours playing.

For the northern side of the Island, please visit Nissi Beach! One of the most beautiful beaches I've been to with golden sands and sparkling turquoise seas. You'll even find pelicans wondering the beach. 

I'm no expert of food and drink here so I would hate to give you some made up information and send you merrily on your way to get food poisoning somewhere, but if you are visiting the island here are some top designations that are worth a trip: 

1. Paphos
2. Limassol 
3. Nicosia
4.Ayia Napa (although if like myself you're a little grown out of partying here stick to the Nissi beach side!) 
5. Troodos Mountains 

On that note, I'll leave you with my little tush trying to do pull ups at the side of the boat... and failing! xx
