Most places, even the hottest places I’ve been, have the common deceny to cool down a bit at night.Â
Not Manila tho’, it just keeps the dial cranked up.Â
It’s a weird city, a complete culture shock as I expected something a little different. I was expecting Hong Kong, Manila is much more like Mexico City — if that comparison means anything to you.
It’s a good place tho’, my overall impression has been favourable so far. It’s massive so getting around takes a while, and I’ve not had much change to explore many areas. But being massive means that there’s always somewhere else to explore.Â
Plus I’ve already lost money playing poker so I know I can do that as sucessfully as I can anywhere else.Â
I’ve no real idea how the interview process is going, I think I’m putting a good impression of myself forward, but we’ll just have to see how it all goes.

No it doesn’t. Compare it to somewhere I know. Cummon.
