Christmas market, Village Art and Visitors from Wales


The festive season is truly upon us, and this weekend we found ourselves surrounded by the sights, sounds, and scents of Christmas at the Kvides Christmas Market here in Cyprus. The event was held inside the village’s huge church hall, which was beautifully decorated and buzzing with festive cheer from the moment the doors opened.













Mandy had her own stall selling handmade beaded jewellery, each piece carefully crafted and shimmering under the twinkling Christmas lights. From delicate beaded Angel's and crosses to tree decorations and earrings. Her creations caught the eye of many visitors browsing through the hall. It was lovely to see people stopping to chat, admiring her work, and picking out gifts for family and friends.





And of course, Santa himself made an appearance, delighting the children with gifts and plenty of laughter. Though, by the end of the long and busy day, we couldn’t help but notice that Santa had nodded off in his chair—clearly even Father Christmas needs a little rest after so much excitement!


A new "Art" design has been erected at the entrance of the village it depicts the association between Haloumi cheese and the village.


Mandy's cousin, Chris, and his wife, Jane, made a brief visit to Pissouri. We met them down at the Captain's Bay restaurant for a lunch overlooking the Mediterranean  sea and a catch up on family News.
