We are in the centro storico of Napoli. At first we were in shock over the noise, chaos and trash, but over the course of a day or so we have come to embrace it and are really enjoying ourselves. It is crowded but colourful. There is graffiti almost everywhere. The narrow streets are rarely touched by sunlight. The palazzos are crumbling. Everyone smokes. The cobblestones in the streets and sidewalks lie in wait to trip you. There is loose garbage. And all of this makes Napoli feel very alive, and the flaws, the chaos and the emotion are all part of the charm.
