  • My big fat italian playlist!

    Whenever I´m traveling and exploring new cities, I try to listen to specific songs – so whenever I hear them again I´m gonna be reminded of my holidays and travels. Here are some of my favorites from last year in Italy. The perfect sound track fro planning this years trip to Southern Italy!

     

    Rome – big, hectic and still so beautiful!

    Firenze

    Milano – such an elegant and still fun place

    Bari – finally in Southern Italy and at the sea!

    Sassi di Matera – something out of this world

    Napoli – my love

    perfect for riding trenitalia trough fields of olive trees..

    perfect for the stroll around the city

    THE classic!

    Any tips for this years soundtrack?

  • Up and down – Vomero

    It used to be farmland and looks back on a agricultural tradition – something you would expect when you visit this urban area today. It was the nobility that made their way up the hill, trying to escape the plague in the narrow streets of the city in 1656 and looking for fresh air and tranquility. The hill stayed tranquil until the opening of the first two funiculars in the mid 19th century – they still run. The city above (città alta) was connected with the city below (cittá bassa) with steps – a lot of them! “Le Scale di Napoli” – the stairways of Naples.
