Naples Top 5

I composed this back when I was living in Naples in February...

Top 5 Things I Hate About Living in Naples:
1) Slaloming dog poo every other stride (& catching those tasty whiffs of it, too).
2) Stinky coffee & cigarette breath, yum (Japan also had this problem).
3) No such thing as non-smoking areas in restaurants.
4) People walking 'round with frowns on their faces.
5) Public transport stops too early – even weekends the metro & the funiculars stop at 10:30pm. Buses run later but are so infrequent you often have to wait so long you might as well walk the hour it takes to get back. Uphill.

Top 5 Things I Love About Living in Naples:
1) Cheap, magically delicious pizza from our local pizzeria. 
2) The mild winter --I wore shorts & t-shirt on my run today!
3) Ridiculous amounts of history around every corner.
4) Walking 20 minutes to a local park for an amazing view of the Bay of Naples.
5) Yummily rich, cheap Espresso for that caffeine kick you become dependent on whilst living here.
