There are three major benefits for Cyprus joining the EU; financially the EU has offered grants for some major construction projects. There is some hope that some of the corruption within the civil service might be restricted by EU rules about tendering for contracts. Before Cyprus joined the EU non-Cypriots were not allowed to own businesses. One of the major supermarket chains (Chris's Cash & Carry) has been bought by Carrefour. This has improved the choice in goods, although food prices have risen since EU membership - partly because of the ending of food subsidies. Politically, the Cypriots feel more secure as part of the EU; Cyprus is a small country close to three continents, and close to countries - Israel, Syria, Egypt, Turkey which have had recent wars or invaded Cyprus. The Cypriots, understandably, felt somewhat isolated and joining the EU gives them a stronger sense of being European - although, ironically, Cyprus is closer geographically to Africa and Asia.

Cyprus is at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, approximately 30 miles south of Turkey.

There are several types of snakes on Cyprus, most being harmless to humans, such as the Whip snake, Cyprus Whip snake, Grass snake & Coin snake. The one really dangerous & highly poisonous snake is the BLUNT NOSED VIPER & a bite needs treatment at a hospital very quickly. All hospitals carry antidotes. Another poisonous snake is the Montpellier - not as venomous as the Viper, but its bite must again be treated by a doctor, or preferably, at a hospital. A third venomous snake is the Cat snake, small and usually not dangerous to humans. It still should be avoided as it has venom. Snakes of Cyprus only strike in defence or for food. They do not look to attack humans and will avoid contact unless surprised or disturbed. There is an expert on snakes in the Paphos area of Cyprus, Hans-Jorg Wiedl, known by local folk as 'Snake George.' Unfortunately he has lost his premises near Agios Georgios but hopes to find a new site. Details can be found on the Net, under "Snake George' & he has published an authoritive book on the snakes of Cyprus.
