Daphne Laskari CCL| Lifestyle Editor
Daphne Laskari is the Lifestyle Editor at Cyprus Pulse, where she chronicles the island’s most indulgent moments, from zivania-fueled evenings to the bold, sharpened Grenache noses of Omodhos wines, and those impossibly sweet Pedoulas cherries. A trained ethnic tailor with a weakness for Byzantine mosaics; and any excuse to discuss gold leaf enlayering techniques, she splits her time between Cypriot cafes and London’s art scene, usually clutching a book and plotting her next hotel escapade. Her writing has graced Independent Art, Claire, and Glamour, blending sharp observations with a love for beauty, culture, and the occasional gallery styling gig. When she’s not interviewing souls or hunting down the island’s best lifestyle hideaways, you’ll find her in blissful solitude, perfecting the art of doing absolutely nothing, except, of course, writing about everything.

His background in failed geometrics taught him that reactions need catalysts, not economics obsessions. He can smell a liquidity crisis before it trends. At Cyprus Pulse, Andreas translates blockchain babble into intelligence you can actually use, wielding personal dictionary like a surgeon’s hype with the skepticism it deserves.
