About Me

Me...

Welcome to my corner of the internet! My name's Hayley and I'm a 30 something-year-old with an inability to stay in one place! Besides living in the gym, up until recently (thank you Coronavirus...), I travelled a lot and have been lucky enough to have visited some amazing places over the years (USA, Spain, Austria, and Budapest to name a few) but the one place that reeled me in, was Cyprus. Having been there on holiday every year for the last 10 years, I thought it was about time I just gave in and moved there! I wanted to document the move and my adentures on the island so I thought, what better way to do it than to blog about it!? Words don't always come easy to me but I'm sure as this website evolves, I'll get the hang of it!

My Blog Values:

In a nutshell, Captivating Cyprus is a mixture of everything - from personal blogs to travel tips and information. I want to capture Cyprus in all aspects, not just from a personal point of view!

My style is more 'frequent visitor' as I like familiar places! I love going off the beaten track to experience local culture in its rawest form but also visit the mainstream tourist attractions (nothing like having the best of both worlds, eh!). Living on the island will help this little expat not only integrate and become immersed but also give you an insight as to what life in Cyprus is all about!

Update: My Plans...

My plans to move to Cyprus permanently have somewhat been put on hold due to Coronavirus and quarantine (COVID-19). However, once travel is safe/normalised, I will be blogging every aspect of my move from finding the perfect place to live and shipping my personal effects to my arrival, finding work, and settling in. My blogs won't end there though, I have lots more in store for us all!

So stick around 🙂

Meanwhile, you can catch me on Instagram (I'm always looking to make new friends!!). I'll also be fine-tuning my newly found baking skills - that I didn't realise I had...
