Traveling Around Southern Italy
Tumblr media
When you think of the perfect Italian weekend getaway what do you think of? Duh! The Amalfi Coast! Positno, Amalfi and Sorrento are some of the most visited cities in Italy during the warmer months of the year and fortunately for me, I get to live here all semester long! While I have done my fair share of traveling in and out of Italy, I still like to take advantage of the beauty I am living in everyday! Rome, Florence, and Milan all have a special type of beauty on their own, but there’s something about the small coastal feel of Sorrento that makes this feel like home. The locals are friendly, the food is authentic and tourists traps aren’t really a thing here!
I had a friend from the states visiting me during her college spring break this past week, and can I just acknowledge how 1) amazing it is to have friends that are willing to come halfway across the world to come visit you and 2) how exciting it is to show them around the place you get to call home for a bit! I was ecstatic to plan all the fun day trips and activities for us to do. There is so much to do even under an hour of Sorrento. Getting around Southern Italy is something everyone talks about but doesn’t exactly explain how. If you’re studying somewhere else in Italy or even Europe, I would definitely recommend taking a weekend to explore the beauty Southern Italy has to offer. 
Starting off… everything begins in Naples! Naples is where both the airport and train station are located and that is where youll find the hub for all transportation to Southern Italy. The easiest ways to get to the Sorrento train station from the airport is the Curreri Viaggi Bus. This 1.5 hr bus ride costs 10 euros and takes you directly to the train station from the Naples Airport. It also goes round trip, so it is good to keep in mind this as an option when going back to the airport to your host country! If you are coming into the train station, the easiest way to get to the Sorrento train station is catching the Circumvesuviana train underground at Napoli Centrale. This train runs every 30 minutes and takes about an hour. Sorrento is the last stop once you get on the Circumvesuviana. 
Once you arrive,, I highly reccommend taking a few days to enjoy the town of Sorrento before exploring the rest of the coast. The small local feel in Sorrento is special and something I haven’t felt in any other towns along Southern Italy. Plus, the only way to get to Capri, Amalfi, Positano and Ravello are from Sorrento, so you might as well enjoy it for a day or two! Getting to Positano, Amalif and Ravello is super easy from Sorrento. All you have to do is a catch a bus (it costs about 2.40 euro) and it takes you along the entire coast from Sorrento to Ravello! You can find the times that is runs online! Be sure to look carefully at the scheudle beacause it changes throughout the seaons. 
Getting to Capri from Sorrento is also super easy! There are ferry docks at the bottom of the large stairs in Sorrento that has ferries that run from Capri, Naples and Sorrento all day long! You can find ferry times on signs around the city or on the ferry website. There are three different brands of ferries that run, so it depends on the day and time you want to where you can find the schedule. Capri is a great day trip from Sorrento and the lats ferry usually leaves around 6:45pm. In Capri, you can rent mopeds, go on a boat tour around the island, visit the gardens, or take a chairlift to the top of the island for amazing views!
Italy is one of the easiest and cheapest countries, in my opinion, to travel easily around. There are so many resources to help you find the best ways to travel all around Italy. I am so lucky to be in such an amazing hub for so many beautiful adventures and to share that with my best friends that come all this way to visit! :)

Sailing The Bvi? You Shouldn't Be A Dingy With Out Your Dinghy
We had lunch on a Sorrento restaurant right each morning center of town. The winding hilly road down from Sorrento provided great vistas in the Bay of Naples as we made our way to Pompeii. We toured the excavated site with its streets and houses and the stepping stones in the way to surmount the rain water. Inside of distance was Mount Vesuvius which on those fateful days had vomited fire and lava. The types of the corpses dying in agony of one's heat and gases still inhabit their glass cases, but it's not the kind of the dying dog which gets probably the most gasps and sympathy from your crowds.
If are generally looking for excellent night life, you can view the astounding ports and nearby resorts when you here. The evening clubs and bars don't play loud music disturbing you. You can enjoy the food and drink in a peaceful ambiance in ?????? ??? ? ?????? the evening clubs. More importance is given for nature and if at all possible be lost in natural beauty for the village and also the clean ocean.
Find a yacht brokerage firm. Finding аренда моторной яхты без шкипера в греции is significant as they probably identify the kind of yacht that you want to pay for. Your broker will help with all of the purchase details and after you receive your offer to purchase you are going to give a 10% cover. Your yacht broker will also bring about passing funds to the seller and ensuring that the sale is accomplished as quickly as most likely. They will also compete the transfer of titles and registrations.
Guarantee or credentials. Check if the school of option is duly registered and licensed with your local government maritime bodies. Track record involving boating accidents and achievements are required. You can also ask around from sailing aficionados and experts.
Some great places to view on the mainland the particular region of Peloponessos as well as known with the true A holiday in greece. It is known for its great beaches, seas, mountains, and rich archeological sights. The keyboard interesting towns such as Githeon and also the Byzantine city of Mystras overlooking Sparta. Other attractions are the Diros Caves and the volcano at Saritorini. The Mount Pelion Peninsula is thought as the Colorado Rockies of the Aegean.
In order to make it to the happening Party Cove establishment, (where genuine effort . plenty of drinking and fun) could have to rent a boat on the boat rentals company. Remember, boating isn't driving. Get a designated driver to operate your reef fishing boat. Come to consider it, you shouldn't be driving under the influence either! Can easily rent a boat waverunner vessel to travel the square. The Lake from the Ozarks State Park can be a fun spot, as well as the largest park in the whole of the state of Missouri.
If you like breathtaking scenery and untouched beauty, Folegandros is the city for your entire family. Artists use this island as a thinktank for creativity, you'll find it includes capture landscapes on fabric! Although small, the island can get crowded during tourist season, so it would be a good idea to go during the off periods. The tourist area, or Chora, sits high from the mountains and contains taverns. The main harbour of Karavostasis offers hotels, beaches and restaurants. The ferry stops at this port. The numbers of ferry rides available to Milos, Santorini, Ios, Sifnos and Sikinos, but only a click couple of that time per about a week.
With maybe the best beaches in Greece, Naxos can be a large island that's located near Paros, Ios and Santorini, and also can easily take a ferry towards the popular island destinations. Naxos has an abundance of restaurants, cafes, shops and golf. You can rent a car to tour the island or take an enjoyable walk over the valleys of Tragaia. The village of Apollon attracts many seafood lovers, is definitely ancient marble quarries the unfinished statue of Apollo.

Sorrento’s: My Go-To Pizza Place
One of my favorite aspects about Acton are the great restaurants that come with the town. Of course you have places like Starbucks, Dunkin, and McDonalds. However, Acton is home to a handful of small local restaurants that are some of the best food places around. Specifically, the place I am going to be talking about is called Sorrento's Pizza, located in the heart of Acton in a busy intersection called Kelly’s Corner. Sorrento’s is a small, local chain that is only in three towns within Massachusetts: Acton, Concord, and Harvard. 
All three of these locations use the same recipe and sell the same pizzas with the same toppings. My favorite is the traditional cheese. However, any of their pizzas I highly recommend. I personally don’t know what cheese(s) gets mixed in with the sauce and dough, however it makes for the best slice of pizza I have ever had in my life. My friends and I are pretty serious when it comes to the quality of our pizza and we all agree that Sorrento’s is on our lists of the top three best slices we’ve had. The cheese perfectly complements the thin, New York style crust and the fresh and flavor packed sauce. Put that together and bake in a wood fire oven, that is the recipe for a pretty unbeatable pizza. 
Sorrento’s has been in Acton for as long as I have lived there and well before I ever arrived. Within the area, there is a TJ Maxx, a grocery store called Roche Bros, Starbucks, and of course, several restaurants all within walking distance of four schools located nearby. This is only the surface of what the rest of Acton has to offer. All of these stores and shops are all within a mile of the four schools in total, giving Sorrento’s Pizza a prime location for lunch or an after school snack, as well as marking it as one of the most popular places to eat during the school year. 
The small independent restaurants and Sorrento’s Pizza are partially responsible for the reason why I and many others enjoy living in a town like this so much and for depleting my bank account. I have had some great memories with this pizza place over the course of my life in Acton. I remember one of the first days of 7th grade my friends and I all walked over to Sorrento’s after school. People within the community, especially the students, called it “walking”. Basically walking involves going to one or a few of the places within Kelly’s Corner after school, but the schools and students called it walking. I thought it was the most grown up thing I’ve ever done at that point. 
My friends and I decided to go to Sorrento’s as our go to walk spot and after school a few times a quarter, we would walk down after school and get our after school snack consisting of a few slices of cheese pizza and a Gatorade. I remember days where I got to walk to Sorrento’s were exciting days as I normally didn’t do that kind of thing when I was that age. 
However, walking to Sorrentos wouldn’t stop there. Throughout middle school, walking to Sorrento’s after school was what all the “cool” kids did. I didn’t do it to try and fit in with them, I walked to Sorrento’s with my friends because we were hungry and no other restaurant at the time deserved our hard earned dollars from doing chores around the house. Some of the best days after middle school were walking to Sorrento’s with a group of friends and then going to one of their houses to play video games. That combo on a Friday night was basically unbeatable.

'Ripley is the story of a con man who assumes the identity of a wealthy American expat. But, as star Andrew Scott told Netflix, it’s also “a story about art and beauty and sensuality… helped by the great beauty of Italy.”
Based on the 1955 Patricia Highsmith novel The Talented Mr. Ripley, the limited series follows charming con artist Tom Ripley (Scott) on a trip to Italy in the 1960s bankrolled by a shipping magnate to retrieve his wayward son, Richard “Dickie” Greenleaf (Johnny Flynn). Tom ingratiates himself into Dickie’s life — much to the chagrin of Dickie’s suspicious girlfriend, Marge Sherwood (Dakota Fanning) — and soon is on the run from police while posing as Dickie in Rome.
Creator Steven Zaillian’s team of talented artists — production designer David Gropman, director of photography Robert Elswit, and costume designers Maurizio Millenotti and Giovanni Casalnuovo — meticulously re-created a 1960s aesthetic. Below, find out how they fashioned such a stunning period setting in Ripley.
THE LOCATIONS
Ripley’s filming locations read like a dream vacation: Venice, Rome, Naples, Palermo. Zaillian and Gropman drove the length of the Amalfi Coast, going from Salerno to Sorrento, “looking for the town we imagined Dickie Greenleaf settled in,” Zaillian told Netflix. “Most have been too modernized or gentrified for a story taking place in 1960, but there was one we came upon, a village of about 800 people called Atrani, that we found perfect.”
When the series finally filmed in 2021, it was the height of the Covid pandemic, so “there were no tourists,” said Zaillian, “which made it feel all the more like we’d gone back in time.”
Beyond the postcard-perfect vistas provided by the location, Gropman had more than 200 sets and locations to design. His researchers worked in New York, London, and Italy to make sure the plans were as accurate as possible. While Gropman and Zaillian visited several Roman apartments, the one used in the show was a set. But those real estate tours were inspirational.
“The sofa in Tom’s Rome apartment was the sofa that we saw in a villa in Rome that we both fell in love with, so we just built an exact replica,” Gropman told Netflix. “The leather chair that Ravini sits in in Tom’s apartment? I was walking by a shoe store in Rome, and there was this beautiful old leather chair. We couldn’t get that chair, but we worked with the most wonderful Italian decorator to source something. She made all of these interiors come to life in a really spectacular way.” THE STYLE
Unsurprisingly, the costumes were as meticulously researched as the locations. Designers Millenotti and Casalnuovo created “thick binders” of images, arranged by region and year, to show Zaillian their vision of what the costumes would look like. The finished products included vintage pieces as well as outfits they crafted themselves. “From the feel of La Dolce Vita in Rome to a more working-class wardrobe in Palermo or Atrani, it’s always accurate,” said Zaillian. “And even though it was always the intention for Ripley to be in black-and-white, I asked them to clothe no one in colors, which limited them in a way that made their job even harder than it already was.”
Millenotti and Casalnuovo initially worried about the black-and-white restriction, but once they got comfortable, they told Netflix, “[We] learned how to express ourselves and build the characters only with a thousand shades of gray. It was the greatest challenge we ever faced as costume designers.”
The quiet luxury of Dickie Greenleaf
The object of Tom’s admiration, Dickie, is the heir to a shipping fortune — someone who grew up around wealth. For him, luxurious fabric and timeless style is second nature. For Flynn, the “beautifully tailored” costumes helped him get into character. “The way that the trousers sit on your waist and everything like that helps when you’re playing in this period — the grace that the clothes allow you,” he told Netflix.
Tom’s style evolution
Tom, on the other hand, is quite uncomfortable in the moneyed world he steps into, because he’s only crafting a facade. He’s a quick study, but he gets plenty of things wrong, too, like the purple paisley robe he brings to Dickie from New York. “Tom doesn’t come from the culture that Dickie comes from,” Flynn tells Tudum. “Dickie can spot something that’s unfashionable a mile off. And his taste — not necessarily in terms of his own paintings, but everything else — is meticulous.”
Was the robe really so terrible, though? “It was pretty garish,” says Flynn. “But it wasn’t that bad. It was something that your grandfather would’ve worn maybe — or certainly mine — and felt very suave.”
But as Tom becomes more comfortable amid such affluence, he begins to understand how fashion helps him fit in. “Ripley’s transformation is about seeing a subtle change but not being too brash about it,” said Scott. “We see there are different Toms: We’ve got New York Tom, Amalfi Tom, Tom as Dickie, and Venice Tom.”
1960s DESIGN
Tom is fixated on Dickie, and that singular focus extends to the objects in Dickie’s orbit, all of which are in 1960s midcentury style. Tom pockets a pen off of Dickie’s desk before returning it, a sign of what Scott calls Tom’s “almost sensual relationship with things.”
All of those meticulously curated objects — Dickie’s ring, his typewriter, even a hefty glass ashtray — become fixations for the camera, too. Scott said on Netflix’s Skip Intro podcast that Tom “loves [things], and you feel like he protects them. The camera is trained on these things so much. I suppose we as an audience are invited to just really appreciate them.”
THE ART
Life imitating art
The final episode opens with a flashback of sorts, but not to another period in Tom’s life. Instead, we travel 350 years back in time for a glimpse at the life of famed Italian painter Caravaggio. Tom is enamored by Caravaggio’s gruesome, dramatic paintings, but the two men have more in common than an appreciation for beauty and art.
“Caravaggio is another man who lived in Rome who murdered somebody and then was on the run for it for the rest of his life,” Zaillian tells Tudum. “That little parallel I thought was interesting. For the final episode, I thought it would be a lot of fun to suddenly flash back 350 years and have people say, ‘Are we watching the same show?’ And then realize, ‘Oh, yes, Caravaggio. I understand this.’ ”
Art as status symbol
For all of Dickie’s wealth, there’s one thing his money can’t buy: talent. While Dickie might enjoy the finer things in life, his artistic pursuits are a vanity project. “There’s some stuff that’s passable in the landscapes,” says Flynn, “but we all found it very funny that it was [mostly] the really objectively bad paintings that you see.”
Is Dickie a good painter? Emphatically, no. “Here’s the thing: The story is so much from Tom’s perspective, you should be in his head going, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ ” says Flynn. “And the same with Marge’s writing as well. I think it works well if we, through Tom’s perspective, think of these people as fooling themselves and that their whole life is a bit of a bubble and an illusion and the lie that they’ve created about being these artists in exile. Yeah, the paintings were pretty bad!”
BLACK AND WHITE AND SHADES OF GRAY
One of the most distinctive — and perhaps most period-appropriate — aspects of Ripley is its black-and-white palette, something Zaillian had planned from the beginning.
“I never saw it as some sunny, colorful postcard of a story but rather as the foreboding suspense story that it is,” he told Netflix. “It takes place in the winter of 1960 and, like many of Highsmith’s stories, has a film noir quality to it. Black-and-white can be striking in a way color can’t be, and I’m grateful Netflix agreed.”
A frame within a frame
Zaillian and Elswit had worked together on the miniseries The Night Of, so Zaillian knew his director of photography would be up for the challenge. “He loved the idea of shooting in black-and-white and brought to that seemingly simpler palette a depth to the photography that’s more evocative than color,” Zaillian said.
Another of Elswit’s choices brought even more depth to the visuals — the shots that frame Tom within another frame, including windowpanes, mirrors, doorways, and other enclosed perspectives. They suggest that, as viewers, we’re watching Tom fit himself into a box.
The deeper meanings found within Tom Ripley’s story are also imbued in the cinematography. “This show is so much about light and dark and contrasts and the underbelly and what’s going on under the surface,” said Fanning. “I love that Steven and Robert are really playing with that through the lighting and the sets, and the color palette and the tone.”
Take, for example, the closing montage that focuses on a painting from Picasso’s cubist period. “Cubism is all about deconstructing usually a human figure into parts, so that we can somehow see them more clearly when we’re not distracted by them all being in the right place,” Zaillian tells Tudum. “I felt like at the end, to see these pieces of Tom, these different personas of Tom, these different identities that he assumed, that we were actually seeing him fragmented like the cubist painting that’s right in front of him.”'
