NAPOLI pt.2



Fond memories of Napoli...

  • the hot sun
  • the sandy beaches
  • the blue sky
  • the piles of garbage on the streets
  • the vespas/scooters racing around
  • the mini-buses
  • the crazy driving
  • the flirting romantic men
  • the HOT men
  • the Jesse Metcalfe look-alike
  • the quick-melting gelato
  • the half cooked pastas
  • the little sauces
  • the scorching heat
  • wet backpack straps from our sweat :P

It was an awesome time in Naples ... We didn't do the usual tourist thing like visit all the sites and stuff, but hung out with a really cool bunch of people: the AIESEC Napoli Parthenope crew. They included Giulio (thanks for hosting us!!), Franco, Bianca, Camilla, Maria, Anarosa, Luigi & Co., etc. and I will never forget any of you! It was so nice of them to just let us tag along with them the whole weekend. :) With them, we went to downtown Napoli, a cool beach club in Napoli, Sorrento, and the island of Ischia. Me and Ching-Yin also visited the archaeological site of Pompei, where it was so hot we nearly melted into the sand ourselves.

It's true that Italian men are very romantic (*cough*horny*cough*). They don't beat around the bush and they dont' waste time when it comes to hitting on girls. If they like you (which doesnt necessarily have to be beyond surface levels), they'll tell you or show you, depending on how brash he is. It seems that in their minds, there's no use in playing those silly mind games because you're only really wasting time. Think, if everyone just said "I like you" and that person liked them back, hook-ups could happen in a matter of minutes rather than weeks. And that's exactly how it happens in Napoli. ;)

So... lesson learned: Don't waste time and just show your feelings, if you're lucky enough to have any. Hehe.
