Why I Love Manila

Nabasa ko sa Philstar. At gagayahin ko

Top 5 reasons why I love Manila:

1. Its an urban jungle. There's always an adventure waiting to be discovered. Everyday is a journey worth taking.

2. Food, food, food. You can never go hungry here. There's always a food stall near where you are. Mura na masarap pa!

3. Mass transportation. Tricycle, pedicab, padyak, kuliglig, MRT, LRT, FX, taxi and the world famous jeepney. So many options when you wanted to go anywhere and everywhere.

4. Night life. Albeit, I'm not really into it. Literal na gising ang Manila 24 hours a day, seven days a week, non-stop!

5. The people. The variety and vitality of people living here. Mix of idealism and realism.
