Wow, I’m from Cyprus and never thought that someone would find it such a great place to study! Most people want to leave the country and study somewhere else. And considering most of the places to study are in Nicosia which isn’t by the coast and that you definitely need a car to get around.

But I agree with the points you mention above.

A free field trip? That’s pretty awesome incentive. But I can see where “hedonistic” might have come in — we had a good time in Cyprus. Probably too good of a time.

Thanks — I never thought I’d visit Egypt OR Israel while I was there, but flights were just so affordable, I couldn’t pass them up. Cyprus is absolutely beautiful — even if I couldn’t study there, I’d definitely go for a vacation. In fact, I probably will.

Great post. I have to say Cyprus was not on my travel radar…but the point about the proximity to Africa, Europe and Asia got my attention. Blue skies and blue bays are a big plus too!

haha, field trips can get pretty rowdy – teachers have to lay down a hard line. My students aren’t allowed to touch alcohol.

It was actually sort of disgraceul how badly we all were behaved. Picture a group of 40-odd Geology students, about to graduate from one of the most prestigious universities in the world for geology, on a field trip to an island with (apparently) fascinating geology. Within 30 seconds of arriving at our first location (on Mount Olympus), the first snowball had been thrown (it hit the lecturer, though where it was aimed I don’t know), and things just deteriorated from there. Highlight of the trip was having a bamboo jousting competition in some gorge somewhere … that, and dancing on the tables in the evening! Yep – study in Cyprus (just remember the “work hard” part of the mantra)!
