I was visiting Naples with my daughter. Feeling exhausted after the flight, I tripped and fell face firstRead more in the kindness of strangers seriesYears ago I was visiting Naples with my daughter. On our first day there, she was itching to go for a walk down to the port, so we dropped our bags at the accommodation and set off to explore.I was feeling quite exhausted after the flight, and while walking down a steep cobblestone street, I tripped.
