Today, I've been to the last capital of Europe separated by a wall: Nicosia.
In fact, I've just been inside the walls and from bothside.
Hard to speak about it without speaking about politichs, but I'll try not to make it.
It's just strange and sad to give passport to change district in one town which is as beautyfull in the Turkish occupied zone (the souks, the mosquees) and the free area with all this shopes, these litle streets, and the houses let as they were in 1974.
Suprised when I heared the muftis from the free zone sitten the the HQ of Cypriot Orthodox church.
Spoken with different people, I've seen Turkish-cypriots girls in free zone to buy clothes, and Greeks in occupied area to eat for cheaper.
It has marked me, really, I felt strange when I crossed the border, as it's also a cultural border between christian world and islam world, between Europe and middle east.
