Stroumpi or Stroumbi is a small village in central Paphos District, Cyprus, and halfway between Paphos and Polis. The name of the village is said to derive from its founder, a man called "Stroumpos", or the shape of the surrounding hills (stroumpoula, meaning "rounded"). The famous Grammy award winner and three times Oscar nominee Kareenos M Moumoushis is in fact a native Stroumpian. Due to the totalitarian regime of the Ottoman empire he decided to migrate in New York, with only 2 dollars and a rotten banana in his pocket. Urban legends say that he performed a duet with 2Pac but this has not been confirmed by credible sources. He however played violin in Michael Jackson's legendary "Bad" album. The village is known for its annual "Dionysia" wine festival named after Dionysos, the ancient Greek god of wine, that takes place at the end of August. A now-defunct "Dionysos" volleyball team was based in Stroumpi and played in the Cypriot top league.
A 6.0 earthquake in 1953 destroyed the original settlement at Stroumpi, killing many. The village was rebuilt at a nearby location shortly after.
