« While walking around, you'll notice that people in Naples dress stylishly and aren't afraid to experiment with their look, thanks in part to the numerous shops and their reasonable prices. There are plenty of men's clothing stores featuring a variety of sizes, fabrics, and textures, which is something that's often lacking elsewhere.
In January, seasonal sales take place all over Italy. The discounts are impressive, ranging from 30-70% off the original prices. For instance, you can find mid-season jackets for around $16, jeans for about $11, and textiles for $5. Shoes were available for $43-54. All items are labeled as made in Italy and appear to be of high quality. Overall, Naples has notably lower prices for clothing compared to other cities like Rome, Milan, or Florence. »
We took the metro, stopping at 2 and 1 stops, but we didn't come across the best scenic views in Europe; perhaps we'll see them tomorrow. The metro itself is quite ordinary, reminiscent of Paris, with long walks where you sometimes have to go upstairs on foot since there are no escalators. The price for a single ride is €1.60, and it lasts for 90 minutes. A daily ticket costs €4.50.
In the city, there are a lot of police and military personnel around. It's quite warm, around 15 degrees, and there's hardly any wind.
The sea is beautiful and calm. Here's a photo of me and Vesuvius. 😄 »

You can find vendors selling fruits and vegetables everywhere.
We arrived in Naples via the toll road, which cost around $38. To play it safe, we had breakfast at IKEA. There wasn't much of a crowd in the store. The parking situation was chaotic.
We didn’t stop in the city itself; where it was interesting, there was no parking available, and where there was a spot, it felt risky to get out of the car. The only place we got out was a sandy spit across from the city, where the locals set up a sort of beach on the rocks – that’s where I took a photo.
On our way out, we bought strawberries. Then we left for Lazio on the free road, passing by endless abandoned and unfinished houses, hotels, and the unsettling sight of drifters and the unfortunate realities of poverty, all in the heart of the European Union. »
