Football Fever, Caribbean Dreams & Pissouri Nights

Buckle up as we take a nostalgic ride back to 2016 – a year packed with unforgettable adventures and plenty of laughs. From Wales’ stunning run in the European Championships (and a bit of friendly ribbing from English friends) to Caribbean island-hopping with speedboats, waterfalls, and white-sand beaches, it was a year that never stood still. Back home in Pissouri, there were karaoke-filled afternoons, Cuban-themed nights under the stars, mountain escapes to the Troodos, family visits, and festive fun that carried us right through Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Join us as we relive the highlights, share the stories behind the photos, and celebrate the moments that made 2016 one for the books.”

2014 : Sun, Souvla & Surprises

In this vibrant Episode of The Road to Pissouri, 2014 springs to life with all the charm, chaos, and character of a year well lived. Follow our narrator on a journey that spans continents, seasons, and unforgettable moments—from the flooded streets of Surrey to the icy avenues of New York City, and on to the sun-soaked Caribbean aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise. Back in Cyprus, life never slows. There are beach boot camps with the infamous Pissouri Nutters, dramatic runs through mud and fire, sizzling barbecues under the stars, and unforgettable nights of music and dancing in the village amphitheatre. You’ll join the fun at bustling tavernas, get swept away by tribute acts that would make Freddie Mercury and Barry White proud, and even catch a few strawberries with local horses along the way. The second half of the year turns the dial up with surprise fashion shows, starlit beach parties, winery tours, and a magical wedding celebration that includes Greek dancing and a soul-stirring performance by the Military Wives Choir. From Thessaloniki’s historic streets to wild go-kart races, sunset cruises, and early Christmas feasts, every page is packed with friendship, laughter, and just the right amount of mischief. Narrated with warmth, humour, and a twinkle in the eye, these chapters are a heart warming snapshot of community, adventure, and the joy of simply making memories—wherever the road may lead.

2013 : Kites, Crisis, and Cousins Getting Married

Join us for a sun-soaked, laughter-filled journey through life in Cyprus in 2013. In The Road to Pissouri, we follow the highs and lows of island living—from hypnotists and hillside hikes to economic crises and drag queens with better legs than most of us. We kick off with petrol strikes, snow in the mountains, and birthday surprises (complete with violins). We move through community spirit in the face of financial turmoil, celebrate weddings and anniversaries, and dance our way through rock ’n’ roll nights and Morris dancing mayhem. We also brings the heat—both from Cyprus' fiery summer and the international headlines, as global events ripple through this peaceful paradise. There’s also spice (from Indian food), sparkle (courtesy of Miss Debonair), and sentiment (a Welsh wedding to remember). From karaoke nights to earthquake tremors, this is a slice of expat life told with warmth, wit, and plenty of souvla.
