As usual every vacation for us starts with a ''
you sure you didn't told anybody?'' because me & sister likes to keep our plans as a secrets. At least our vacation plans. :) We knew where we're going to, when, where we are staying at, we knew everything for almost half of a year. And this year there was a twist... My best, best guy-friend also known as Alberts was coming with us! What could be better? I don't know... Like, um... Let's stick with Alberts was the best decision we made!
We have already visited Cyprus few years ago and I was super excited because it's one of my favorite places where I've been. First time we stayed at Oscar Five Star Hotel and it was amazing experience, but this time we stayed in another region in Cyprus, to specify we stayed in Famagusta which is amazing city, but in my eyes not as beautiful as Kyrenia was. This time we stayed in Salamis Bay Conti Resort Hotel, we arrived pretty late, checked in, got cozy in our rooms and had some sleep. In the morning we woke up for breakfast and then we were ready for some rest next to the pool! We had all inclusive so that meant only one thing - drinking cocktails all day and all night. That feeling when you simply lay down next to a pool with a beautiful sea view with cocktail in your hand, sun is shining, all the conversations are positive, people around are happy... It's something amazing. I can't describe how it makes me feel.
As me, my sister and my auntie are all pretty big personalities we always fight over dumbest things ever. And also big part of that is our dark humour and sarcastic jokes that we make and if one of us doesn't feel the vibe it can get out of hands. So this time we took with us one of my best friends Alberts because we needed a man who would be able to hand us all and at the same time someone who is positive and funny to make it all way chill because as I said all of us, women's, are pretty insane and spontaneous. And it all went great! In the third day we had excursion around Ghost City = Famagusta and also spots we had visited before as I, the smart one, understood after I started to get those deja vu moments and I was like, ''darling, auntie? I'm pretty sure we have been here already!'' so at the end, even though I was a little bit pissed because that excursion was pretty boring (the best part, of course, was lunch part) I said to my aunt - next time we visited countries we've already been in, please, let me choose what to see or to specify - let me choose excursions. It was the one and only excursion we had all the week and did we regret? Oh, hell no! Why? Let me continue.
This part of the story is probably my favorite one. In the second day around the pool we saw pretty handsome guy bringing cocktails to his wife and I was saying to myself: ''
you know what? no! this time you'll not give a shit about any male in here, you simply don't give a fuck! you'll get ready each night for yourself and you're going to be the sassy lady who don't need any male human in her life (right now) so don't even look at him, don't fucking fall for him and don't ruin your vacay darling!'' and as I said these wonderful, inspiring words to myself out of nowhere my auntie loudly asks ''
are those cocktails good?'' and I'm like, what the actual fuck, is he Latvian? And yes, he is. But I'm like ''
you know what I don't even like married guys'' and for real it has never been my thing so I don't bother how do I look next to that pool until the evening came. We went to the dinner, ate some amazing food, had some drinks and then went outside to the terrace for some drinks. My sister, my bestie and me - we all are pretty hardcore smokers so we went to another table so we don't bother our auntie with all the smoke going up in the air and the same guy comes to us, introduces himself, we introduce ourselves and I sit there looking at my phone while smoking my cigarette not saying any word because all of them talks about gambling which somehow have been or are right now part of their lives and I'm there like the sweet young girl who don't do drugs, don't do gambling, high standarts, high class and all of that in my mind not easy money and games but somehow we all are so drunk that we all go back to our aunts table and decide to go to the casino next to the hotel. Five minutes later me with auntie leaves the most luxury toilet room I've seen, diving in to world of gambling machines and poker tables, and shit like that and we're like ''
shit, none of us have ever played'' and there is just two of us because our company are lost and we, drunk, in the second night make a call even though it costs shit yelling at my sister ''where the fuck are you'' and she's coming after us and we dive into another world while Alberts plays something on the table and we just watch. Few moments later he have won his money, we leave and me, as I've drank so much I have become extra sassy and after our bathroom talk with auntie, I ask to the new-guy: ''
so, my auntie have only 2 questions: how old are you and are you married?'' and he's smiling and saying ''
well, I'm free and 23'' AND THE NEW LOVE STORY BEGINS! All of us takes more drinks and starts to talk way more openly about different topics. Also about love and relationships. Then this guy decides to play game with cards and the next thing I remember that he ask my sister ''
have you ever had threesome?'' and later the same question pops in my direction. When he leaves for a moment me and my sister decide that I can take him (yes, we had this conversation) and again, I, strong independent woman who doesn't needs anybody starts to play games with this male. Of course, it all wasn't as beautiful and easy as you imagine, because my auntie yells at us: ''
wtf, Harald, don't be dumb to fall for her! she don't need you at all, take her sister'' and texts like these pops out of her all the night until the next thing I remember is that we're at my place, just three of us and she says: ''
just take my room and do what you have to do, I'm going to stay at yours'' and I'm like, ''
Jesus fucking Christ, thank you, but no, I'm not that easy'' and the young male seems to be a little bit disappointed, but we continue to drink and talk until my auntie almost falls out of the balcony, so we decide that we should all rest. My auntie goes to her room, we go downstairs to the terrace and sat there with super romantic view in front of us but to be honest we were super drunk and I don't remember that much from first night we had together and to be honest, the rest of the days ain't that interesting as well, at least, for you guys, because there was simply nights when we all went out on the terrace to exchange with our opinions and later when we were just two we just talked about life, past & a little bit of future in a flirt vibe. Even tho-, I had mini crush on him as he wasn't one of those guys who acts out, also doesn't drink until another persons shows out of him, have great future plans, also he seemed to be loving and respectful to a woman -- simply seems to be nice guy and in my eyes he's simply handsome looking male. In the last days I didn't see this male too much so I just spent time together with my dear auntie, my sister & best friend. We had so much fun, we went out to sunbathe, drank cocktails, talked to the staff and other people, we simply had week full of good energy and positive emotions. My sister and best friend also got burned because sun was too intensive one of these days, oh my oh, of course Alberts is a ''little bitch'' in SOME WAYS,
baby if you're reading this please don't get mad at me, hahah, but he was like ''ugh, I'm sunburned. not gonna drink tonight'' baby, no, it will not help!!! Anyway, as I remember our time together - I can't imagine another person than Alberts in our trip. As we know each other for about 5 years and have another dimension connection we always make fun of each other and we always laugh about the dumbest things ever, I can't even describe our vibe, but it's good. Whenever I was a little bit too tired I was like, ''eh, gotta chill with my bestie for about 15 minutes and I'm going to be fine'' and I think all of us, girls, was thinking like that, because he's so positive! So back to the point I was talking about, they got the worse sunburn I've ever seen, my sisters eyeballs were red, I can't. That was one of those days when I felt so bad because of my ears and little bit of hangover so I went out few hours later and thankfully didn't get sunburn! Oh. Also did I mention my relationships with all the staff members? One of them named Isa proposed to me, I still have the ring. Another one told me to come back and promised to change all the paintings with photos of me, he was simply amazing. And again what can I say - all the males there and all attention you feel, oh my oh... One of our photographers even asked for kiss & told me to come on a trip with him to his hometown right in that moment, haha. On the last day me and my sister went out to make some photos & swim in the sea and I think - for the first time ever I wen't for a swim on my vacation because as I don't know how to swim I don't feel comfortable in water. And it was amazing, water there was so warm and light blue, we went in to make photos and later to just fool around - it was amazing to be there right at that moment. Also later all of us three rebels went for a hike to visit abandoned water park, to be honest, firstly we wanted to check abandoned house/hotel next to us, but, as we got closer- there were people on the floor, some sleeping, some eating so we were like, ''shit, let's continue our trip'' and oh wow, territory around our hotel was so dirty, I can't describe. People living in a paradise, but it's too hard to pick your shit up? Whatever, soon we approached abandoned waterpark which somehow wasn't abandoned. So we went back, even tho it was about 20 minutes long trip - it was our last day there and everything we did was worth it. In the evening they had huge party in the hotel, and by huge I mean HUGE! Alberts met up with our other male and they went out to party, but we ladies decided to stay in for some drink in our room, few minutes later all of us yelled at each other and au revoir all the positive energy because we all got in a huge fight! :) Also as I am not a morning person and we had to woke up around 2-3 AM because of our flight I decided to skip drinks and went to my bed, we packed all of our things few hours before going out so I was super happy to smoke my night cigarette & go to sleep. In the morning we ate breakfast, almost did not talk to each other and went to the buss. Quick chat with other Latvians and we were ready to go. We had to flights from Cyprus to Istanbul and from Istanbul to Latvia. Of course I wasn't happy at all because of my ear problems, but anyway, I had the best time in my life there - with the right people, in the right place. Warm weather, amazingly great food, funniest people around me, comfort, beautiful views, the best vacation... And of once again I would love to visit Cyprus again and I know, eventually I will! Because once again I left my t-shirt there. Fuck! Hope it was interesting to read how it all went and what we went trough and I hope you're having amazing day! :-)
P.S. Remember that male guy I was talking about? When we landed he texted me: ''Well, thank you and have a nice life.'' or something like that AND I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING from him! ka-boom! But as my auntie said to him in the first evening we met ''She don't need you darling, she's just playing with you.'' and now I think, who am I kidding, I am who I am and (right now) I don't need anybody in my life. I don't even feel mad, it's his loss even tho- what loss if we both just had fun there and here we don't care about each other! Riiiiiight?Keep your head up, ladies!
