Our train journey was relatively pleasant with a good sleep and good company - we shared our cabin with a lovely lady from Munich who spoke fluent English and Italian.
After changing trains in Rome we arrived in Salerno at 14.15 and caught a taxi to what was to be our new home for a month. Our apartment was nothing like we imagined it would be. It was more typical of student accommodation with a long hallway being the only living space. It had 4 closed locked doors off the hallway to each of the bedrooms, a bathroom, and a tiny kitchen. Thankfully our room was quite spacious.
Later in the afternoon we went for a walk to discover that everything is closed in Salerno of an afternoon from 1 - 5pm and most things are closed on a Sunday anyway. This made it a little difficult to find something to eat but we did find a pizzeria that was open... ahhh Italy...:-).
