The Experience

I’ll admit, I was nervous about getting from Naples to Positano. The idea of dragging my suitcase onto a packed train or bus just sounded… exhausting. So when our driver, Salvatore, waved at us right outside the station—honestly, I felt like I could finally exhale. He had that calm Neapolitan way about him, cracking a joke about the football score as he loaded our bags (I think he was still half listening to the radio). The car smelled faintly of lemon candies—he offered us some—and there was cold bottled water waiting. It’s small but it matters after a long flight.

The drive itself is kind of hypnotic. We left behind the city noise and suddenly everything slowed down; even the air felt different. At one point, Salvatore pulled over without me asking—“You have to see this,” he said—and we stepped out for a photo above Sorrento. The sea looked almost fake, all blue and silver under those heavy clouds. I tried to say “grazie” properly; Salvatore smiled and corrected my accent (I probably butchered it). There’s WiFi in the car but honestly, I barely touched my phone except to send jealous photos home.

We passed tiny villages clinging to cliffs and old men playing cards outside little bars—I caught their laughter through the open window for a second. The road twists and dips so much you lose track of time; I kept thinking we’d be tired but instead it felt… easy? Maybe because someone else was handling every detail—luggage, directions, even traffic jams didn’t seem like my problem anymore. When we finally rolled into Positano and saw those pastel houses stacked up over the beach, I just sat there for a moment before getting out. Still think about that view sometimes.
