In this episode, we talk about the ghost town of Varosha on the northern coast of Cyprus. Once a bustling tourist hotspot, Varosha was abandoned in 1974 when the Turkish military invaded the island after a coup attempt aimed at uniting Cyprus with Greece. Elina, a proud Cypriot, shares her personal story of fleeing Varosha with her family when she was just four years old, given only five minutes to pack their belongings. I learn about the dramatic events of 1974 that led to Varosha's abandonment and the division of Cyprus.
Elina vividly recalls the knock on the door and the heart-breaking decision her family had to make, leaving everything behind. Varosha's current state, sealed off for over 40 years, is a stark reminder of the island's ongoing conflict. I explore the recent efforts to open parts of Varosha to the public, which have sparked international debates and criticisms.
We also talk about the movie "Smuggling Hendrix," a comedic take on the absurdity of Cyprus's division, is discussed. Elina shares heart-warming stories of her father's efforts to preserve his village and foster unity between Greek and Turkish Cypriots. The episode also touches on the struggles of migrants seeking refuge in Cyprus, highlighting the island's ongoing humanitarian challenges.
