Family newsletters
There are a lot of pages on this site, with lengthy descriptions of what we did, what we learned, where we went, and so on, since moving to Cyprus.
If you would prefer an overview of our life here, you could peruse our newsletters instead, which were sent out to family and friends every Christmas and (in the first couple of years) also in Summer. The links below take you to online copies of them all.
