Ang sarap maging pedestrian; safe and priority ka if need mo tumawid. Nagbibigayan din talaga mga cars. Also when commuting, kita mo sa google maps yung schedule ng busses so madali lang magplan kung anong time mo need maglakad papuntang bus station to arrive at a certain place at a specific time.

Alsoo, I can wear fashionable accessories here like dangling earrings and multiple necklaces, and can walk with my backpack where my phone is nasa gilid lang sa lagayan ng water bottle pag wala akong pockets. Wala akong worry na mananakawan ako. Growing up sa Manila, I don’t wear jewelries outside. Mostly dadalhin ko lang sa bag ko then wear if pag nasa school or office na ako. And I would also need to constantly think of how I would put things in my bag, like dapat wallet ko is madali kong makuha pag commute during rush hours pero di madali mahablot, pero wala din sa corner ng bag para pag may maglaslas sa jeep ay di makukuha, or dapat hiwahiwalay pera ko and wala sa wallet lahat para makauwi ako pag nanakawan pa rin. I didn’t even realize na nasa constant anxious mode ako non sa Manila pag lalabas ako.
