I sometimes wish I had a "Cypriot-sounding" surname (which I'd have had if my parents' genders were reversed) so Cypriot students would come to me based on that. I've missed out on many Cypriot communities because of my surname and now I'm painfully homesick & it's not helping.

Reach out, it's a win-win. You get to address your own needs and they get an incredible role model!

How do I reach out to Cypriot scientists?

Also OMG thanks!

That sucks, I'm so sorry! I felt something different but related during some of the worst anti-Semitism on Twitter. I'm not Italian and am Jewish, and it felt like I was hiding and ashamed.

I think it's related in many ways, yes. *offers hugs*

How about Dual surname?

Tricky. My mum has that though.

Sorry to hear about the homesickness. I think it’s cool that you have your name in Greek now. I wonder if there are other ways to be more visible in that way? You tweet about Cyprus a lot too, I think. So people might find you that way
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
