What I’ve come to understand, now that I live in Paphos, is that Cyprus functions as a condensed mirror of the modern world. What many outsiders experience as paradise is also a landscape where global inequality becomes visible. Cyprus contains extraordinary beauty alongside extraordinary economic contrast, often within the same neighborhood and sometimes within the same conversation.
I see the Cypriots who sustain their country through labour.
