Welcome to the wiki: Views of Cyprus, perspectives on the 'green isle' through the eyes of students at the new METU NCC.
- You are the first students to attend METU NCC, so we'd like you to reflect on your experience so far and pass on your knowledge as pioneers to the students who will follow. We'd like you to explore an aspect of Cyprus that you think new students should know about before they come, so they can get the most enjoyment and benefit from their brief stay in Cyprus.
