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.

I know that just being there is being a role model, but if they can't see me, I'm not really there, am I?

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

That I don't know, but maybe you could start by reaching out to appropriate student groups?

Tricky. Very tricky. But it's definitely an option. There are roughly 1 million Cypriots in the whole world.

Not recommending anything in particular because I have no experience with anything like this, but there are sites designed to help people in similar situations connect.

I'm not convinced this exists for Cypriots, but I can imagine what you mean.
