Don't just see the sights-get to know the people. For much of its
history Cyprus was regarded as the Cinderella of
empires--beautiful, abused, isolated. Today, the island is divided
between the Greek-Cypriot south and the Turkish occupied north.
However, both sides take pride in a shared "Cypriotness," and are
united in their common hopes, pain, memories, music, excellent
cuisine, rich history, and majestic landscape. Culture Smart!
Cyprus equips you with essential information on the history,
values, and attitudes of the people you will meet, their customs
and traditions, and offers tips on etiquette and socializing. Have
a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better
understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values,
attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your
hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to
navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.
Brand new from the #1 bestselling author of The Old Ducks' Club. 'A
delightful and jolly romp in the french countryside. A lovely taste
of France and generous slice of la bon vivre.' Jo Thomas 'A
glorious romp that readers will adore. Maddie's warmth and humour
will put a smile on your face' Judy LeighDivorced and on a
deadline, bestselling novelist Bea Pinkerton has a serious case of
writer's block. With her agent breathing down her neck, Bea will do
ANYTHING to avoid writing another word. So an invite to a reunion
with her old school friends at a beautiful chateau in France, is
Bea's perfect chance to escape. Surely here, relaxing with old
friends and drinking cold fizz, Bea will find inspiration? But as
soon as Bea arrives, she realises this is not going to be the
peaceful getaway she anticipated. Her old school friends Gin and
Audrie are in various states of marital distress and to top it off
a camera crew has arrived to film the goings on at Chateau De St
Cyr. Far from being calm, the trip is total chaos! Thank goodness
for Bea's new French neighbour Laurent Sinclair - handsome,
charming and perhaps exactly the romantic muse she needs to get her
mojo back. But is Bea brave enough to take a second chance at love
at her age? Perhaps with a little help from her friends... Escape
to the Chateau for another laugh-out-loud feel-good adventure with
the #1 bestselling author of The Old Ducks' Club!

Regarded as the cradle of Western civilization, Greece is the
birthplace of democracy, Western philosophy, Western literature,
political science, major mathematical principles and Western drama,
as well as the Olympic Games. But it is also a country of mountains
- 80 per cent of the country is mountainous - as well as islands -
of more than 1,000 islands, 227 are inhabited. And it has the
longest coastline of any Mediterranean country. From antiquity to
modernity, from the tallest mountains to the tiniest islands, from
the Romans to the Venetians to the Ottomans, Greece is a beautiful
photographic exploration of this fascinating country. Arranged by
region, the book celebrates such classical highlights as Athens's
Acropolis, the ruins at Mycenae in the Peloponnese, the Byzantine
churches of Thessaloniki and the ancient Temple at Delphi. It also
explores the beauty of the islands of the Aegean and the Ionian
Sea, the Zagori mountains in the northwest of the country and the
hydrothermal craters on Nisyros. Presented in a landscape format
and with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Greece is
a stunning collection of images celebrating one of the world's most
popular destinations.
AdventureMaps provide global travellers with the perfect
combination of detail and perspective, highlighting hundreds of
points of interest and the diverse and unique destinations within
the country. Each map is printed on durable synthetic paper, making
