As a US citizen, does Cyprus count towards my 3 months in Schengen? I’ve read that the South is part of Greece, the North part of Turkey, but that Cyprus is not considered Schengen. The whole thing confuses me, would love any insight.
Anyone spent time there? Recommendations? Internet?
Part of the EU. Legally obliged to join the Schengen. However, the “Cyprus Dispute” remains as an obstacle to joining (the split between Greek and Turkish Cypriots that you mention).
I have many Entrepreneurial friends that have “MOVED THERE” to take advantage of tax laws and the like. I only have heard second hand that the internet is good.
yep, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area

The mountains on the west side of the city seem to just explode out of the ocean and it's special to see. That said, the built environment is pretty uninspiring.

The best area is Nimman, but it's also the most expensive. You can stay in the old city that's very nice but that gets noisy during the weekend for the night markets. Last but not least, very safe city. All in all would go back in a heartbeat.
