On October 26, 2024, I was in Naples to speak at Linux Day 2024. I also had a few hours to see the city.<\/p>\n

It is a place unlike any other in Italy; it’s a semi-anarchic country of its own. “Math diplomas in 3 minutes, only in Naples” is an advert I saw there. Free entrepreneurship runs wild.<\/p>\n

Folks don’t follow the rules of the road at all. Everyone must pay attention to not be hit by a car or motorbike.<\/p>\n

Yet, thank god Italian legislation isn’t fully enforced there; Naples’ ways are the cultural heritage that gives the place its special vibes.<\/p>\n

I visited a (legit) clothing store, which however didn’t have any price tags. I negotiated a discount on an “already discounted price” (yeah, right), only to have the clerk ask me to pay the original price at the checkout. I reminded him about the negotiated discount, to have him reply “just kidding”. I would have stormed out of the store if this was not Naples.<\/p>\n

Neapolitans also really<\/i> care about their soccer team. One could even say they are religiously devoted to it.<\/p>\n

Oh, and they speak in their own tongue; not in Italian.<\/p>\n

Naples is Italy’s meme city.<\/p>\n

\n

I love the country more than ever after having been to Naples.<\/p>\n

Italy is so beautifully diverse: Genoa<\/a>, Venice<\/a>, Florence<\/a>, and Naples are four key cities to see here.<\/p>\n", "date_published": "2024-11-11T12:53:04+05:00", "date_modified": "2025-04-29T20:50:25+05:00", "tags": [ "Europe", "Florence", "Genoa", "Italy", "legislation", "memes", "my events", "negotiations", "tongue", "travel", "undertakings", "Venice" ], "author": { "name": "Robert", "url": "https:\/\/robertblinov.net\/blog\/", "avatar": "https:\/\/robertblinov.net\/blog\/pictures\/userpic\/userpic@2x.jpg?1739870896" }, "_date_published_rfc2822": "Mon, 11 Nov 2024 12:53:04 +0500", "_rss_guid_is_permalink": "false", "_rss_guid": "132643", "_rss_enclosures": [], "_e2_data": { "is_favourite": false, "links_required": null, "og_images": [] } }, { "id": "130960", "url": "https:\/\/robertblinov.net\/blog\/all\/genoa-2024\/", "title": "Genoa in 2024", "content_html": "
