Cyprusscene welcomes Ralph Kratzer

Cyprusscene are pleased to welcome Ralph Kratzer as a writer on our pages and we have been collaborating with him in the setting up of a website www.tfrnorthcyprus.wordpress.com which is similar to www.cyprusscene.com.

The important fact is that The Foreign Residents in North Cyprus (TFR) is a dedicated group of mixed expatriots who are wanting to bridge communities as well as helping to make North Cyprus a better place to live.  To read more of TFR click here.

Ralph Kratzer was born in Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany in 1957 and was educated at the Baccalaureate High School He holds a degree in Economic Information and served for 12 years in the German Army before joining a French computer company for 10 years.

He then ran his own motorcycle and gastronomy businesses before deciding to retire

He arrived in North Cyprus with his second wife in 2004 and since her sad loss in 2011, has kept himself very busy trying to help others with similar problems and in 2012 became the Secretary of “The Foreign Residents in the TRNC” (TFR) and is very keen to see expat communities coming together and playing their part in helping North Cyprus, their adopted homeland.

Ralph, TFR and cyprusscene all have the same designs and aims and we look forward to furthering our collective aims through promotional activities on our two websites.
