Who's the girl from Naples?

It's me,
Claudia Cardillo!
My surname in italian means 'goldfinch", which in many neapolitan songs is the messenger of love.
Well, I will be the messenger of love for my beautiful city of Naples, or Napoli in italian.
Born in Naples, I studied History of Art and moved to London a decade ago. Don't get me wrong, I love London and Londoners (in fact I have married one!). But my heart is definitely still in Naples. Living in the UK has made me realise how little people know about my city, or things that they did know were only negative. It might be chaotic, noisy and confusing but it is also vibrant, lively and beautiful. I would like to open up the city to you, to show you the incredible sights and experiences that you might otherwise miss. So follow my tips and advice to enjoy a city you will never forget!
Buon divertimento!
