Experience the Vibrant Nightlife While in Naples

Experience the Vibrant Nightlife While in Naples

Young and excited to experience some musical entertainment, gustatory delights, or the vibrant night life while staying or visiting Naples (a place that’s bustling with activity somewhere in southern Italy in the region of Campania)?

Even in the hotel where you’re booked, you can have wholesome fun. There are chic upscale night clubs featuring  great bands that can play melodious tunes of the 60’s through the 90’s, like the one at the Ritz-Carlton Resort. Alternative clubs also exist, like the those in Piazza dei Martiri, Piazza Amedeo and Piazza San Pasquale. Wine bars, of course, also abound.  Energetic souls may also dance the night away at the popular discotheque La Mela in Via dei Mille.

There are many other popular hotspots  in Naples. When the sun sets, you can enjoy a stroll  along one of the stunning beaches or at a semi social center called the Galleria Umberto I  which is a 19th century gallery a stone’s throw away from Teatro San Carlo, a large theater built in 1737. There are many restaurants that are also worth trying. Travelers recommend venerable pizzerias like Sorbillo and Di Matteo. Sorbillo is a family-run pizzeria noted for its topnotch ingredients, and excellent and wine by the glass. The story goes that local pizza used to be white and only had pork cracklings and then anchovies as garnishings. It was only in the 1760’s that tomatoes, along with garlic, oregano, and oil came to be used as part of breakfast fare for mariners. A century later, pizza with tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella named after Queen Margherita, came into being.

Some restaurants worth checking out for a light evening meal or snack are the Ciro a Santa Brigida, a haven for Neapolitan cooking; and the Gran Cafe Gambrinus, one of the oldest cafes in Naples that serves pizza, cakes and pastries.

For individuals raring for lots of evening action, there are the bars that may require a great deal of cash at hand.  Seasoned travelers advise being alert to what is being offered to you.

Some nightclubs, like The Chez Moi, are favorite haunts of frequented by clothing designers, government officials and socialites. If you want to mingle with the younger set, there’s Madison Street, a disco that offers drink, dancing, videotaped films and rock concerts, and loads of unadulterated fun. Also recommended is the Piazza di Spagna for those who love dancing.  There’s a cover charge, though, during the later part of the evening. Music enthusiasts, particularly jazz lovers, may want to visit the Riot.

Gays are in for a great time, what with nightclubs that offer incredible views of the Bay of Pozzuoli and mount Vesuvius.

Indeed, Naples is a great place not only for sightseeing and updating oneself on Italy’s history and culture, but also for forgetting the pressures and  stresses of the outside world, even for just a while.

Wagaami

Wagaami

Travel is a major part of my life, I’m a traveling salesman for a large firm in Houston, Texas.  Well I’m proud to say I’m very good at it, as I alone was responsible for $560,000 in sales this past year, no easy feat in this economic times. Well anyway I want to share one of my most memorable travel experiences. You must be getting ready for a sexy escapade type of story but no it actually has to do with a short time I had free in Los Angeles, CA. Once there I made some sales, but that’s not noteworthy, what I was really impressed with was the time I had with a wagaami. Yes a wagaami, well before I get started I must tell you what a wagaami is if you don’t already know. A wagaami is a non sexual escort.
What!? Yes you read right, a non sexual escort, companion, whatever you want to call it.
The Truth is, is that they are really not for sex or any kinky activity. Anyway I had a free day in LA after my sales run where over. So I said to myself, do I do the usual and go out and explore on my own? or hire a professional from LA that can really show me around. I browsed the web for something like that and wagaami.com came up. I was pleasantly surprised as on the website I could pick the wagaami I wanted to show me around LA. Whats great is that you don’t have to pay a silly membership fee to see the Wagaami on the site, you could just browse and select from there. I had time and money so I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my free time as I’m not one to get with hookers, that’s not how I was raised (thank you Mom)
I finally make my choice and booked my wagaami. Let me tell you she was beautiful to the max, and here’s the kicker she was actually smart!. Wagaami.com set it all up I paid up front, met her on Hollywood Blvd by the Kodak Theater. I was a little nervous at first cause lets face it she was hot and sexy, but this is not what this was about. I wanted to see places I would definitely not know of cause jeez I don’t live there.
I was right, we went to some great spots! yes we saw the regular tourist things but then she said, let me show you were the real Hollywood peeps hangout. I was like heck yeah, lets go!. I had an amazing time there and boy I’m I glad that Wagaami exist in LA, oh and their also in NYC and Miami. I would get into details but I’m tired of writing as this is not what I do for a living, I just wanted to share a wonderful experience and one that everyone should try. Go to wagaami.com and check for yourself. Nuff said
