Cypriot greeks arent like the ones who lives in Greece, at least they arent so uneducated and dont shout without any reason with their wives  and get a shout as answer from them even in the streets. Ýn Cyprus almost everybody knows english so its not a big deal to comunicate with them while in Greece, mainly in Big cities like Athens and Salonika, if you dont know any Greek, you may have a lots of problems to buy food or find your right way for example. Here even if you dont know any turkish, the native ones try their best to make you understand what they are trying to explain and also to understand you. There, men prefer get married with a woman who is rich. The tradition there is that the woman must have the house (her parents buy or build one for all of their daughters so if they get divorced they will have a place to stay, but some stupid ones pass the house in name of their husbands and after the divorce they have no place to go except their parents houses. The parents of the woman give everything for the house, even the basic stuff but the guy just get inside of it and make lots of complains about what he see

In here ( Turkey) people are fast to help foreingner without asking anything in exchange and if they can they also offer you help to learn turkish and they give you a place to stay when you have got no one and they offer you the best that they have at home, even their own beds. In Greece greeks are always self-centered and owner of the reason. Even when they are quite wrong they always wanna prove they are right, they have bad educated behaviour at table and they like to use bad words all the time and speak bad things (I meant lies) even among themselves when the person isnt close to defend him/herself. Even if they can help they never do.. they always think about their own navels before everything, they have no idea how its difficult to be a foreingner in their country if you came from miles away and have no relatives around you. They dont care about taking a exam to go to the university even knowing that all courses and uni there are public, they are always affraid of leaving their families to go to another city to study or work since their mother do everything for them and they dont know how to do anything by themselves.. they think that everybody around is guilty for the bad situations except themselves.. they treat their mothers as slaves and shout with them when they dont find any ironed t-shirt in their rooms... They complain that foreigner have jobs and they dont... if we wanna get a job there we must accept anything like washing dishes in a dirty traditional restaurant by hours getting a ridiculous salary but they dont accept this sort of job coz they think they desirve something better to spend money talking and drinking frappes for hours without doing or thinking about anything, life for them has no responsability, it should be for enjoying all the time ( like Socrates and Platon thoughts).

Most of them like spending time speaking bad things about turks and telling that one day they will organize a war to take ´Constantinopla´ back from the turks.They never mention the world ´Istanbul´. But I never saw any turk losing their time talking such stupid things against greeks in here.

I am talking those experiences I had while living for a year in Greece and compairing with my almost 6 months here in Turkey. So I mean, I am not talking about things I heard from someone or I watched in a movie, this was I experienced in my own skin and saw with my own eyes.

Calm down people...

What are we really discussing here?

I like Greece very much. I was there last year and looking forward to visiting the country again in the near future.

Brazil is another country I am so curious about. Hope I can see it in my life time. (which seems to be the only way actually).

I find most British people to be  very logical, informed and well-mannered. These observation leaves out the British football fans who turned the entire ground of Taksim square into a stinking, sticky, beer quagmire. (Liverpool fans as they were waiting for the final match vs AC Milan)

YOUR description of my country, not mine

I have travelled a great deal in my working life, so actually you should take your own advice and not comment on me personally unless you know me
