Rainy moments in Naples 🇮🇹

Naples is easily one of my favourite cities in Italy. Perhaps the rain contributed to the romantic experience, but the atmosphere in this city is incredible. Old meets new down every street and you can sweeten the mood with buttery pastry and strong espresso; or indulge in cheesy Napoli pizza 🍕 Few cities in Italy have been as fraught with turbulence as Naples. If you’ve ever read Elena Ferrante’s My Brilliant Friend series, you’ll know that the history of the city is complicated. In spite of everything it has been through, Naples has regenerated into a thriving center, only growing stronger from its stormy past. Naples, however, has only grown stronger from these setbacks. Today, tourists from all over the world come to the city to behold its unique landmarks. The Bay of Naples and the looming figure of Mount Vesuvius make Naples a city rich with natural views in addition to historical sites. #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #myvlogtrip

Hiking in Naples

The view at Mount Vesuvius is breath-taking!

Mount Vesuvius is probably the most famous volcano in the world. School children across the world have read about it in their history textbooks for generations – the volcano that destroyed Pompeii! Usually Vesuvius is discussed in the context of the eruption in 79 AD – a story of history and a natural disaster of the Ancient World. Rarely do we mention that Mount Vesuvius is still active and one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world. Since Pompeii was destroyed by Vesuvius, there have been dozens more eruptions. We don’t know the exact number because the historical records of ancient time are incomplete, but the best estimate is about 40 times in the past 2000 years. In fact, Mount Vesuvius is the only volcano to have erupted in Europe in the past century. In its most dramatic volcanic event of the 20th century, lava flowed over the rim and huge clouds billowed into the air – all of it clearly visible from Naples. Hiking Mount Vesuvius, Naples, Italy It makes you stop for a moment and wonder whether hiking Mount Vesuvius really is a good idea? #mynovgetaway #thanksgiving #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving
