      Ah, Varosha then. Famagusta is able to be visited and I have been a few times — Varosha AFAIK is not open to anybody except Turkish troops although I guess some reporters have been allowed in more recently. I was born in/am from Nicosia.

      My aunt and uncle were in Varosha on their honeymoon when the invasion happened.

      Yes, I think the other side of his family are in no man's land - horrible, one cousin was killed in the invasion. I've been on the Turkish side only once and many relatives disapproved that we went at all.

      Sure —- everybody has right wing relatives — I do too. But without meeting our fellow Cypriots and saying sorry through actions it's never going to get better. My brother now speaks fluent Turkish and he and a lot of my schoolmates actively work for cooperation and peace.

      My village's legacy is extra tricky because unlike Potamia for example, we are one of the most right wing ones, we killed/allowed to be killed/pushed to the ghettos all the T/Cs in the 1960s.

      Oh, no worries. And I enjoy sharing. BTW for Potamia, Natalie's blog is always very interesting, e.g.:http://mcmkmk.org/index.php/2018/01/03/its-just-a-dream-right/ …

      Also since Cyprus is so fucked up, here's another great one by @NatalieHami1 that really hammers home how absurd living there can be (and painful and heart-breaking):http://mcmkmk.org/index.php/2018/02/14/why-i-vote/ …

      That's heartbreaking - oddly none of our relatives have issues with Turkish Cypriots (who they see as cypriot) but with Turkey. My partner resents now that when he says he is Cypriot he is now always asked which type.

      I never lived in the Uk when they didn't ask. It happened to me from the first day I moved here. Somebody on the train from the airport asked me and my mum what type of Cypriots we are and she said "Christian" and he didn't clarify.

          This kind of upset me and told me it's Islamophobia more than anything in her opinion. I still think she should not have even replied. But my mum, who lived through the invasion, was quite different back then on certain progressive issues.

          My mum wasn't going to be allowed into Austria until they could see it clearly stated "Greek Cypriot" on her passport once.

          So yeah, it's pretty much always been tricky. When my grandad visited the UK (on USA passport) had to deal with shops/hotels that said "No Cyps".
