Journey: 

Philippines Islands: a getaway from Metro Manila

Personal highlights

  1. Pasay: one of 13 cities of the Metro Manila, between the airport and Manila
  2. Hometown: great hostel, offering me the first night after a 6-hour flight delay
  3. Starbucks: the only cafe in walking distance to work with real reliable internet
  4. Jeepney: unique Manila buses, a combination of a Jeep and touching Knees
  5. Traffic: Metro Manila and most of its cities is the loudest and dirtiest city!
