I tried Portugal and preferred Cyprus’s get-shit-done culture

I tried Portugal last year, but didn't like it: - People offering us cocaine in Lisbon - English-speaking only in tourist areas - Vibe is old/retirement - Food was meh Cyprus has a “get shit done now” culture. My local coffee shop opens at 7 am every day. 8 am on Sunday. Portugal has more of a “we’ll get to it tomorrow” culture.
