Welcome Gavin. Good luck to you and your wife with your plan to move to Italy. There will be frustrations, as with any move, but I hope it all works out and look forward to hearing about progress.

just remember....'piano, piano' it will all be right in time. Napoli is a beatiful vibrant city, with probably the best food in Italy. You'll love it..

Moving to Naples
Submitted by Sabina on Mon, 11/23/2009 - 10:35In reply to A newbie all over again! by Annec
I lived in Sorrento for quite a few years, and often went into Naples for shopping etc as it was so much cheaper and more varied. It is a fabulous city - vibrant, noisy ,happy and I agree with the other person who said the food is great. It gets a lot of bad press...much of which is well deserved - but just treat it like any other city in the world where poverty and hardship is rife. Don't walk around looking as if you are a millionaire (in comparison....) count money out in the street, wear lots of jewellery etc. I used to just put folded bank notes in my jeans pocket and carry a plastic bag....never had any problems at all. As to the rest...utilities etc are as bad there as anywhere else in Italy....learn to be patient!

We did a 5 day weekend in Oct to look around and get some fact finding before we move out in Mar. The city was as you described, but we enjoyed our short trip. We will be renting a villa to the north and everythng seems to be working out. We are both really looking forward to it.
