Bisecting Europe and Asia, Cyprus is an island full of sights and history. This visual blog takes the viewer from the famous archaeological ruins in Paphos to the far reaches of the island along the Akamas Peninusula, and winds through the Troodos Mountains and Mt. Olympus to end in the ports of Larnaca.
Dengue fever, a super typhoon and a coconut

Hospitals were hundreds of miles away from me in my illusory state in a tiny, dingy town on a remote island in the Sulu Sea.
