12 months

Can you believe I've been here for over 12 months!

Italia

- Day 1 -
Skin colour:

Set off at 3am in the morning(after getting to bed at about 12:30am) to get to the Heathrow airport. My flight left at 6am heading for Milan, the capital of the fashion world. Unfortunately I was only going there to catch a plane to Naples.

Once I'd arrived at Naples I jumped on the bus to Sorrento. It was quite a nice drive around the coast, past Pompei and Vesuvius, seeing a sunbed littered coastline. It's as if every flat piece of coastline, whether beached or not, is an appropriate place to soak up the rays.

Once I arrived in Sorrento I had a little wander around then went to sample some Italian coffee, Italian style - Short, and dark(different to how I normally have my coffee - sweet and blonde). By 4pm I found another bus to take me to Masse Lubrense. Once I arrived in the town my Villa was only a short walk from the town centre down the hill toward the Marina.

My room was quite standard and what I would've expected of a villa and the view was spectacular. After I got settled I wandered down to the Marina(10mins) and walked along the shore then enjoyed some of the local cuisine.






- Day 2 -
Skin colour:

Today was my relax day. So after a late rise I sat by the pool for a bit, and even put my feet in and read a bit of a book. Later in the day I wandered down to the marina to see amazingly tanned bodies scattered on every possible rock, walkway, pier and sunbed possible. So I joined them for a little while, however after the guy next to me started complaining about the glare I put my top back on.

Had a great meal this evening in a restaurant that overlooked the hills and the ocean, amazing vistas.




- Day 3 -
Skin Colour:

After an early rise I met a boat down at the marina to take me across to Capri. The journey went around part of the island to see a huge cliff which some king-type person used to throw people off. Nice. The driver then took the boat through a stone arch in the water which was quite cool and out the other side to see boats. Now these are the type of boats I like, SuperYachts. 130ft, sleek, room for the speedboat a few jetskis, cinema, grand piano, bowling alley. Boys toys! I got of our mini boat here and took a bus into Capri centre. This place was packed with tourists and quite a contrast from my little village. It was quite interesting wandering around and seeing all these really old streets littered with Armani, Zegna, Prada etc. boutiques.



- Day 4 -
Skin Colour:

My morning today was again spent relaxing by the pool. After I'd done enough of that I ventured into Sorrento - 20 minutes on the bus. Again this was another place that obviously the tourists love. They were everywhere and mostly American. I just wandered around endless small streets with touristy shops(not the expensive types like Capri though). The cliff edge was quite nice here, overlooking the bronze body laden sunbeds and the bay, with boats. After sitting down at by the water for a bit I ventured back into town to find a restaurant for some food. The hospitality was seriously lacking in this place compared to my local restaurants in Masse. There was no love with this bunch. I was tempted to walk out an find somewhere a little friendlier but cos I was hungry I decided to just order and eat and leave.



- Day 5 -
Skin Colour:

Last day today. After checking out I went into Sorrento and sat around for a bit, then headed to Naples, sat around some more, then caught my flight back to England. End of Holiday.

There are some more photos but they're still in my camera

- Day 6 -
Skin Colour:

Back to normal life. To earn money. So I can buy these things:
1. A 130ft Superyacht, with room for a skiboat and numerous jetskiis, indoor cinema, several bedrooms:
Here's one for sale
2. Just a little kickabout to get out to the yacht:

3. This house was out on the point at the Marina della Lobra:
Perfect place to set up my studio.
