World's garbage

Couple of days in Gaeta, going to the beach everyday and having fun got a little boring. So my friends and I decided to go to Naples for a day just to see around. We scheduled a day, went to the station to buy tickets that were pretty cheap. Our train ride was about one or one and half hours. As we came out from the station, all we could see is garbage. Garbage was everywhere. Besides garbage, there were a lot of weird people, I guess they were homeless, but they were in dirty clothes sitting on the ground. Honestly, I never saw so many “homeless” people outside of the train station. Since I’m from Canada, seeing something like that was so shocking. It seemed like Naples was completely different country because it was so different from Gaeta, which is one of the smallest Italian cities. We were walking on the street made of garbage. Everything I could feel underneath of my sandals was garbage. It felt like the entire world threw the garbage at Naples. I wish I could take better pictures to show you what we were going through.

We started walking away from the train station, so we could head to the centre of Naples and see the tourist sights, take pictures and have fun. 

As we were walking down the street and talking in Russian, discussing our plans, some random man came up to us: “You guys are Russians? I’m Russian too, I just want to let you know, keep your purses and expensive stuff to yourself. A lot of people get robbed here, but anyway enjoy your trip, guys!!!” We couldn’t even reply to him and he disappeared in the crowd. After he said all that to us we started walking closer to each other and held tight to our valuable belongings. I really appreciate him for that.

Honestly, Naples is very pretty city! We saw the most prettiest church, the most beautiful view to mountains, very tall buildings and architecture looked so nice.

 I wish it was much cleaner and I really hope it will. But if you ever travel to Naples, here's my tip for you: do not take any valuable stuff with you and make sure you are ready to see world’s garbage everywhere. However, it’s fun to see how other cities are so much different from each other. Oh, and we lasted there only few hours and were so glad to come back to our “home” in Gaeta.
