A city that I love... and hate I was born in Naples, but now I live in a small town in Sicily. I don't like it very much and It isn't so interesting. That's why I'm going to talk about my native city. Naples is a real chaotic metropolis, like the ones that you might find in South America; It's part of his fascination and beauty. In fact, plant of tourists come to visit Naples all the year long. Especially during Christmas holiday, due to the strong tradition that Naples preserve of this festivity, and in spring when it's warm and you can enjoy the walks on the seafront. The city is full of history as much as of contradictions, you can visit museums in the rich uptown, and lost yourself in the labyrinth of the popular Quartieri Spagnoli, downtown, where to eat one of the best pizza of your entire life! I really miss Naples, but at the same time I try to stay away, because it's easy there for things to turn bad.

A city that I love ... and hate

I was born in Naples, but now I live in a small town in Sicily. I don't like it very much and it isn't so interesting. That's why I'm going to talk about my native city. Naples is a real chaotic metropolis, like the ones that you might find in South America. That is part of his* fascination and beauty. In fact, (plant?) of tourists come to visit Naples all year long, especially during Christmas holidays, due to the strong tradition that Naples holds for this festivity, and in spring when it's warm and you can enjoy the walks on the seafront. The city is as full of history as it is of contradictions; you can visit museums in the rich uptown, and lose yourself in the labyrinth of the popular Quartieri Spagnoli, downtown, where you can eat one of the best pizzas of your entire life!

I really miss Naples, but at the same time I try to stay away, because it's easy there for things to turn bad.

*or, part of its fascination..

Very well written! Vedi Napoli et poi muori?

Si capiva eh che era una specie di confessione? Grazie per le tue belle parole

Hi Sonia , I'm Italian too.. and I'm here (maybe like you) for try to improve my english ... :-) My name is Erik and i was born in Turin but my origin is from south of Italy like you... precisely from Calabria.. All my family was born over there ... I'm the special one born in the North... maybe you can understand what it does it mean for a south people's mentality :-) ( I'm joke but not too much :-) ) So, i just read your story and it sounds like a little private confession.. with a little hidden meaning isn't it? I've been in Naples a couple of time and I loved it with all That the worst things that your city have :-) But with all the better things as well... beautiful city, romantic , great great pizza! I absolutely get crazy for it ! I always thought that at same point the curious people feel the need to really hear yours soul . The Cities, the people, the things you've always done aren't enough anymore... and you feel the need to move away , to meet new people , to do brand new thing, to eat new food ,to open your mind ..isn'it? So for me it was like this, and it was GREAT ! Open you mind , travel the world and enjoy your life... you and only you are the captain of you soul . So , I hope you're happy now in Sicily ... and I hope that I'm not boring you :-) Have good time Sonia. Nice to meet and talked (hope as correct as possible :-) ) with you ! Bye :-)
