Just this curiosity to an Erasmus student:
How are the movies passed in your country? Dubbed, subtitled...?
Thanks! |

If you don't read Greek, don't waste your time going to the cinema here in Cyprus.
The films are in English with Greek subtitles, but the Cypriots talk non-stop through every film (they don't need to hear it you see).
Very frustrating, and rather selfish!

lol. X_Alien dont mind ex_pat. he is an anglo saxon with a stick up his bum.
seriously though I don't think you will find a big difference between CYprios and Portoguese people.
Some greek cypriots have some insecurities which they deal with by pretending to be superior to other human beings but most people are down to earth.
generally its a mediterranean country that is a bit more advanced economicaly than portugal so you can take it from there (i mention economy because an advanced economy automatically means people are not AS laid back as in portugal probbaly but again this depends on where and who you meet) |

same. whatever is in a foreign language stays in that language. the only things that are dubbed in greek are cartoons and/or kid shows.
as far as availability of english programs that i am not sure of seeing as i dont live in cyprus  |

What's next - how is the water, the telephone service, the bus service....etc, etc.
Come on Alien, chill out with the planning ahead and you can find out all this stuff when you get here.
It's more fun that way!

Cyprus isn't exactly NYC, you're not gonna get gang raped in the hood if you get on the wrong bus over here!
