On the mountain. Akrounta. Summer 2022.

Image
Our house in Akrounta, or rather not ours, but rented, is on a hill overlooking the village. The back of the house, you could say, rests against the mountain that rises above it. While we settled in and adapted to life in a new place, it did not occur to us to climb the mountain and see what was there. I became curious and invited the boys to climb with me. Still, you need to know where you live and what surrounds you. It turned out that there is completely wild nature, without any paths, you had to walk almost waist-deep in dry grass. Everything dries up in the summer in Cyprus since there is practically no rain. We walked and I was afraid the boys would suddenly see a snake, but this did not happen to us. We walked safely and successfully returned home! But now we had an idea of ​​​​what was above us! All this, of course, distracted from thoughts about what was happening in our country. На горі. Акрунта. Літо 2022 року. Наш будинок в Акрунті, точніше сказати не наш, а орендований сто...

New Pool in Akrounta, 2022

Image
http://binovskaya.com/new-pool-in-akrounta-2022/ The Cypriot summer is in full swing. The beach can only be reached by car, and there is no cold water in the taps to take a cool shower. Kostya made a decision and bought a swimming pool. This was a good way out of the situation and a great joy for the children. True, they went to visit the neighbor’s pool from time to time, Nikos has two sons and the youngest is almost the same age as Georgiy, a little older. So now we had the opportunity to jump into the pool at any time. В нас в Акрунті з’явився басейн. Кіпрське літо у розпалі. На пляж можна дістатися тільки машиною, а кранах взагалі немає холодної води, щоб прийняти прохолодний душ. Костя прийняв рішення та купив басейн. Це стало гарним виходом зі становища та величезною радістю для дітей. Правда вони час від часу ходили в гості в сусідський басейн, у Нікоса-двоє синів і молодший майже віку Георгій, трохи старший. Тож тепер у нас була можливість будь-якої миті застрибнути в басейн.

Caperses and my painting. 2022, Akrounta

Image
We have been living at the top of the world for a long time. It is so loudly said that we really live on the hill and there is a wonderful view of the village of Akrounta from our little house. I haven’t come down from the house for a whole week; I’ve never had such a problem. Due to hypertension, it’s difficult for me to walk uphill. But I still tried to walk a little and in the evening I discovered some amazing things. And today I read about them and to my great wonder, it turned out that it was CAPERSES! http://binovskaya.com/our-life-in-akrunta-in-the-summer-of-2022-a-beautiful-dinner/ Каперси та моя робота. Ми вже понад тиждень живемо на вершині світу. Це надто голосно сказано, але насправді ми живемо на пагорбі і з нашого будинку відкривається чудовий краєвид на село Акрунта. Цілий тиждень я не спускалася з дому- навіть такого бажання не виникало. Мені через гіпертонію важко ходити в гору. Але я все ж таки спробувала трохи пройтись і ввечері знайшла дивовижні квіти. А сьогодні я ...

Friday News from Limassol. 2025

Image
Last week, many people around the world had their own, but similar news, we celebrated the arrival of the new 2025. Every country and every family has its own peculiarities of this holiday. For example, in South Africa, few people celebrate the new year's arrival, and Christmas reigns in many homes. We, however, have transferred our family traditions here to Limassol. I will tell you the truth, in our family with Radu, when the girls were little, we did not have a cult of giving expensive gifts to each other, but our Sylvia fills the festive evening with incredible joy and unforgettable gifts every time. This year we celebrated not only in the circle of our family, we also had guests – friends of Sylvia and Kostya. It was very fun and unforgettable! П’ятничні Новини з Лімассолу. Минулого тижня у багатьох жителів планети були свої, але схожі новини, ми відзначали прихід нового 2025 року. У кожній країні та у кожній сім’ї є свої особливості цього свята. Наприклад, у Південній Африці,...
