Wow, has it only been 4 days since we left? We seemed to have packed so much in, and today was no exception. We went our separate ways today. Gaz had wonderful day exploring Rome on the 'hop on hop off' tourist bus. The weather has been perfect ... Read more >

I took an impromptu trip to Paestum today. Had a nice breakfast from Luca, my B&B host-bread, cheese, croissant, tomatoes, coffee. I drank almost all the coffee, he went to pour himself a cup and only got a few drops "Vanessa, you like coffee?" ... Read more >

I had to leave Villa Sofia in Nocelle this morning, sad because it was so lovely there & the family was so sweet. Luciana, the host, helped me with my bag-put it on a lift that carried it to the top of the road so I wouldn't have to go up stairs.... Read more >

Friday 18th October,
Today we spent almost 22 hours travelling. I thought I would get a big walk in before we left, so I would be tired and sleep on the plan. Kim, Anne and I did a massive 16km walk up through Cherokee (lots of hills). This ... Read more >

Up @7:30 this morning, but I still waited for the 10:50 bus. No way will I skip a big inclusive breakfast & good coffee! Plus it's the only time of the day I get wifi! I waited in Positano for the next bus toward Amalfi ( bought groceries ... Read more >

The Amalfi coast is insanely beautiful. But, getting around with public transportation sucks. It would be ideal if you had a scooter or rented a car (if you're brave) or just took a boat everywhere. The bus rides can be enjoyable, but I feel like I ... Read more >

Lots of waiting for buses today, so I didn't do much of anything. Waited over an hour for the bus from Nocelle to Positano, went down to the port & walked around a little, tried to find my NY friends @ the beach but no luck. So I walked along the ... Read more >

I took a bus to Positano from Sorrento, then had to wait an hour in Positano for a bus to Nocelle (which isn't even really a town, maybe a few buildings but not much here). It was raining, I got soaked, and I was approached by some Italian guy who kept ... Read more >

Ok so the minute I stepped off the aeroplane into the blazing sunshine on the Mediterranean island of Sardinia I asked myself why I am actually living in Macerata. And I just spent the most amazing weekend of my life there, seriously it was just so nice ... Read more >

I'm on a hydrofoil to Capri today. I have a feeling its going to be a kitschy, overpriced tourist trap. But the island looks beautiful & I want to explore it, so we'll see.
For some reason I was under the impression that Capri was ... Read more >

I am in Sorrento today. Wow what a nice change of pace. I barely caught the train from Napoli, and it was packed. But the ride was nice & the view was lovely. We passed by Vesuvius, you can see where it forms a crater on top. The train goes all ... Read more >

Kind of weird spending your birthday alone in a foreign place, & Napoli to top it off. A little lonely I suppose, but it didn't really feel like my birthday (though I did get a nice video from my family :). I spent the morning wandering the streets ... Read more >

Got lost, in the rain, in the rough part of Napoli. And this morning things were going so smoothly. I waited around to see if the rain would clear before leaving the hostel, but no, so i went out with my weenie umbrella, found the bus stop for the R4, ... Read more >

Transportation went fairly smooth this a.m. despite a demonstration @ the train station blocking all traffic. Packed train to Napoli. I spent the 2.5 hr ride enjoying the landscape; old ruins just outside of Rome, lots of farms & mountains.... Read more >
