      Look Im not saying that it’s OK for it be this low, but weather plays a significant role.

      You try walking in the summer jn cyprus to work or wherever. If you dont drop on your way there from the heat you will get there covered in sweat plus skin cancer is not a joke

      Look I know the weather is not ideal at times of the year but I think it’s more than just that. It’s cultural. We like to take the car everywhere, even for a 200m walk to the periptero down the road.

      Personally I walk around 1.5 hours almost every day, year round. In the summer I go when the sun starts to set.

      I went over a year in Cyprus without ever using a vehicle, just walking everywhere. You do quickly realize that the only pedestrians are old people, immigrants, and dog walkers. It’s kind of sad in a country that was pedestrian friendly for thousands of years, and by all indications now hates people on foot.

      1: its hot

      2(probably exclusive to the north): sidewalks have *trees* in them

      Ues ***TREES***

      Cue the “waaaaaah it’s too hot/cold/sunny/humid” complaining. Also the “there is no dedicated bike path directly where I want to go” complaining. 

       From like October to April it’s pretty much ideal.eaether and still nobody cycles or walks, so the whole “it’s the weather” bullshit doesn’t fly. Cypriots are just lazy. 

       I’m sure there’s gonna be loads of people with their own anecdotes of why it’s literally impossible for anyone to lightly cycle 10mins to work. While their house is being built by people doing 8 hours of manual labour in 42C. 

      But I guess people who order a frappe for delivery from the cafe downstairs because walking 10m and riding in an elevator is too exerting aren’t gonna be convinced.

      When I was in Finland during vacation I walked a lot. I’ve returned back to Cyrus and I drive again. The reason is that it’s really easy to walk in Finland and very hard in Cyprus.

      The Biggest dis here is putting the summer weather as an impediment…

      You can do it right. You protect yourself and you’ll build tolerance.

      Having more trees and reducing traffic would lower temps , especially in Nicosia.

      Does that mean you’re 99.9% impressed then ? Cypriots rule the streets ! 🤙

      A friend came to Germany and thought “Oh wow, Germany has a lot of disabled people in wheelchairs” and then later she realised that in Cyprus they just dont go out – too hot, cars, trash bins and trees on the sidewalks. Just not a very friendly country for people to walk / be on sidewalks…

      I am so confused. How do you walk less than an hour a day? I mean even in your home you move around. How is that even possible?

      Sad but hardly suprising if you take into consideration that the [county’s sidewalks look like something straight out of Fallout](https://imgur.com/a/l82jf2c) and that people drive like utter cunts.

      I was walking with my kid to the nearest MMS , 2 Radom guys stopped their cars and asked if they could drop us off somewhere. It felt nice ! We usually don’t walk on the streets, the mms stored is just on the opposite side of the road.

      Nothing makes me believe that the dead internet theory is correct, than seeing this map get posted for the millionth time in this sub and everyone in the comments is engaging with it like they haven’t seen it before.
