Paphos /ˈpæfɒs/ (Greek: Πάφος [ˈpafos]; Turkish: Baf) is a coastal city in the southwest of Cyprus and the capital of Paphos District. In antiquity, two locations were called Paphos: Old Paphos and New Paphos. The currently inhabited city, New Paphos, lies on the Mediterranean coast, about 50 km (31.07 mi) west of Limassol (the biggest port on the island), which has an A6 highway connection. Paphos International Airport is the country's second-largest airport.
Near Palaepaphos (Old Paphos) at the seaside of Petra tou Romiou is the modern mythical birthplace of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty, and the founding myth is interwoven with the goddess at every level, so that Old Paphos became the most famous and important place for worshipping Aphrodite in the ancient world. In Greco-Roman times, Paphos was the island's capital, and it is well known for the remains of the Roman governor's palace, where extensive, fine mosaics are a major tourist attraction. Paul the Apostle visited the town during the first century AD. The town of Paphos is included in the official UNESCO list of cultural and natural treasures of the world's heritage.
Katō, Kato or Katou (加藤, characters for "add/increase" and "wisteria") is the 11th most common Japanese surname. Notable people with the surname include:

avias seay 2012 "goodbye"
intro:
i've traveled so many places met so many extraordinary races
it touches me to my heart when memories come up of old faces
its time to bid em farewell as my life moves on to great new spaces
i cant stay attached to long because life put you through short phases
verse1:
hasta la vista, later, peace out, dueces
its time for me to go where ever life chooses
life is just like a bubble gum machine many colors
life might deal you one bad apple but you bound to meet others
they got so close to me suntan beds to skin
but i had to back up or get burned again
you can meet many people but saddest part of life
is when you had all your fun wish them everything alright
chorus: Goodbye
verse2:
i know your hearts troubled but sincerely dont cry
maybe we'll meet in this life again or travel in the sky
you dropped me off to the airport i departed in a cab
no matter whats the transportation in your heart you felt a stab
and this world is beautiful like formal masquerades
once i told you goodbye your happy expression just faded
everyday different people, different scenarios why
looked in my eyes you just sighed, it was time to say goodbye
chorus: Goodbye
verse3:
i live life on the edge so hung up off farewells
we have a perfect relationship but only time tells
friendship is so amazing what happens when all else fails
r.i.p to the loved ones, tombstone, rose and smells
we can stay together forever i can hear wedding bells
late night walks in the park, united by love spells
but i dont want to much from you expectations to high
when life carrys on we have to say goodbye
