My dash to Positano and Naples


It amuses me that two towns of such contrasts could exist a bare one and a half hours train ride apart. But that is how dynamic and fascinating Italian people and geography is.



Positano is a town on the stunning and cliffy Amalfi coast dotted with beautiful moorish style houses despite being a bit overrun by beach goers; it is still full of character and charm out of this world. You can get a fab view of Capri Island from the beach.






















Naples is the Bangkok of Italy. Fast, crowded, dusty and multicultural. It was a real surprise getting off the train but the energy and the down to earth aggression tells me that some how I am finally in the real Italy.
