A Rather Pessimistic View

I read an article that in 50 years there won't be any fish to fish!? Wow! Quo Vadis Mundus? How fast are we consuming? But what amazes me is that we, and by we I mean our generation, are going to live these changes. Global warming, depletion of resources and other crisis. As I read that article I also thought about my trip in Cyprus to one of my favourite places on the island. Its a small restaurant on the seaside and they have very fresh fish which some of it, the keepers of the restaurant fish themselves.


I dont like to eat fish much, but on the seaside with the atmosphere it tastes much better and you can actually see what you are eating, because you get to choose the fish you are going to eat in the fridge. Apart from the tasty fresh fish and the beautifull seaside atmoshphere another thing I like about that place is its remote location. There arent so many people there, because it is quite far from the capital and from the other main cities. You have to drive about one and a half hours at least. This drive could have been relaxing and fun. But due to the boom in construction in Cyprus, almost all the way there are holiday bungalows or cheaply constructed appartments. They are built on terrains on which there used to be olive and carob trees! Now its an ugly view of white concrete buildings. Makes me sick to think of it!!

But anyway once you get there, you get to enjoy the wonderful view and the beautiful yet unspoiled sea of the Karpaz region. Here is a view to enjoy ;)
