    What amazed me about Cyprus and the town of Paphos is how much the landscape, Palm Trees, and sea promenade reminds me of my home in San Diego. We also have an abundance of purple jacaranda trees which line the streets. They are pretty but very messy when they drop the purple flowers. My two favorite elements of your vlog were the fun and colorful chairs at the ice cream shop, and Peter posing as a work of art! Thanks for sharing guys!

    Well guys, you’re following in the footsteps of me and the husband! We were in Paphos about 15 years ago and we too found that the old town evaded detection. We climbed to the same height and all we found was some run down streets and an abandoned mosque!! The promenade was just as noisy and busy as seen in your video. Also…the ice cream was horrid. We did however enjoy several hours exploring the tombs of the kings, which is a massive (Roman?) cemetery cut into the rocks.
    Sidewalk? Shock, horror, Peter!! It’s a footpath: 🇬🇧. 😉
    Hope there’s more from Cyprus next Thursday. (We’ll skip over Peter’s budgie smugglers without comment!). 😳😉

    • @tommyandpeter
      @tommyandpeter  9 месяцев назад +1

      It's a very well-hidden old town 😁 Maybe it was a good thing that we didn't try the ice cream. But we think it would be delicious 😁 We didn't visit the tombs of kings; we are not that interested in archeological sites but we saw some interesting pictures on the internet.
      Haven't heard of footpath until now, haha 🤪 There are more videos from Cyprus coming 😉

      @@tommyandpeter Footpath is the correct term, of course. 😉 You missed a corker of a place by not visiting the Tombs of the Kings. It was amazing. When me and the hubby were in Cyprus we tried ice cream widely, but it really was not very nice, so we gave up. Usually, we’ve found really good, tasty ice cream in Spain, Portugal and Italy. 🍦🍦🍦 I’ll look forward to next Thursday’s further serving of delights from Cyprus.

      Hi Greg, you are right, we deserve it, especially when one of us is the King 👑😁 It wasn't that expensive though, the whole house around $100 per night (which is definitely cheaper than staying in resorts with other people). We were there for 6 nights so you can see that it's not something that would bankrupt us 😋 We love all these unique accommodations on our vacations; you just need to be smart and know what you are looking for 😉

    -oh yes so many words for basically the same thing, terrace-balcony-patio also lanai-porch-deck i am sure there are more names and each one has a slight differing definitions depending which regions you are
    you called that thing in the bathroom a sink, when i was little i remember people said lavatory which i hated that word since i had difficulty pronouncing it, now i hear most people call it a sink in the bathroom too
    i would assume that fake plant it fake because it is an orchid which i think is expensive, but the plant corpse on the table looks to resemble what i know is a bird-of-paradise, and i want to call that tree in town a lilac (well that what it looks like to me)

    • @tommyandpeter
      @tommyandpeter  9 месяцев назад +1

      There are many possibilities in English, same as with our languages. It can get quite complicated, haha 😁 In the town it wasn't lilac - they grow in more moderate climates, like the Czech Republic - we have lilacs in our garden. The purple flowers looked kinda similar but the whole plant was completely different. Later we found out it was Jacaranda mimosifolia - a sub-tropical tree native to south-central South America but often grown in the Mediterranean countries 😉

    ooo i see you stayed in what we call in croatia prvi red do mora ( first row to the sea) in 99% cases illegal building used as a cash cow... flooded with every big storm and huge waves. but aside of that, great video, i saw parts of cyprus wich i never visited. you guys realy geting great in this, in year or 2 you could make like traveling documentaries or simmilar, like a podcast with bunch of local myths or something.. not sure what is english expression, we call it putopis, like a travel record or something longer than 23 minutes or maybe to have 2 videos per week.
    coz now you evolved as a content makers and your videos start to be great in a sence that not just quality, but everything, even your property videos contain huge numbers of details in picture and in informations, it is in sam e time entartaining and educational, if that makes sence what i am saying.
    anyway dont mind me i am in a wired stage lol.. filled with ideas and plans, wich is strange, this never happened to me in this time of year, this if first time coz usualy i am depressed and on meds in this time of year. this year is just different, we ae going to iceland on thursday will stay till after 3 kings/wise men.
    i am planing to go back home to iceland or to move completly to my ''cottage''. it all dependes about miron's decision, but he does not know yet that my decision will be made upon his, coz i have no clue is moving to iceland something what he wants. all i know is that i cant stand my life in croatia and croatia at all at least not in a city... i miss iceland so much, my whole life was left there and i always planed to go back there, to my cozy apatament, to visit blue laggon again, to hunt aurora on sky while siting in a geysir, i miss a sound of a language that i even started to watch the most trashiest icelandic movies..yeah as i said wired stage.... btw batery in my keyboard is low so sorry for missing letters and typos etc....

      Would be nice being able to create such travel videos. Sadly nobody is interested, our audience is very small and almost 100% old gay guys from the US 😊😁 No general public here. But we are glad you like our videos and you notice that they are getting better.

      @@tommyandpeter guys the world was not built over night.comparevhow many subscribers you had year ago or 2 years ago. Views too. Many people watch and never subscribe. Part of your problem is that your videos never show as recommended or trending. Most of us stumbled on you by accident or watching someone else. I was watching husband and husband and saw your comment, left to check and when I saw you are from Europe I was intrigued. When I discovered you are fellow slavs well I was like ok gonna give it a shot. 3 videos in and I was hooked.
      Your content is more for mature audience 30+ years in European sence, 35+ in USA sence lol. Coz younger people and superficial people follow more party nudity, se%x gossip,drama stuff. You know for yourself that many big RUclipsrs dissapiered or got canceled coz they did not mature and grow with their audience. I mean is pathetic to watch 30+ old guy acting and talking about stuff which were funny when he was 22 like his audience. Give it a time. People are interested but did not discover you yet. Your content matures with you if you get me. I am pretty sure if you were 22 or 25 your content would be different, more focused on university life and stuff you liked and preferred when you were in that age. You are in an age when people start to domesticate, build a home, have vacation property, have hobbies wich are directed towards relaxation, to travel to more quite areas etc.. just continue to do it the way you like,people will come.
      P.s. Croatian prvi red do mora often got papers obtained on different ways, false registration number etc, greeks are simmilar to our coastal people in many things when it comes to sea buisness haha...

And instead we were enjoying the warm sea and empty beaches, which we absolutely loved 😊
