If you are reading this then I would like to cordially invite you to walking tour of the selected districts of Manila and read you of Good Old Nick's stories some day. (The soonest I'm able to plan it with you.) You may or may not be familiar with the places but I am offering you an experience that might feel like leaping through time and space (mostly leaping over manholes and cracks that the city government or the administration might have forgotten to close). All I ask of you is to pray for a weather reminiscent of Nick Joaquin's May Day Eve: Moist and tropic with winds whirling, whistling, and whining smelling of the sea and of the summer orchards.
Let's plan the itinerary together but what would be non-negotiable will be stories that I'll be theatrically narrating to you. I just hope we are able to stick to it should circumstances favor us but what's an adventure without unforeseen twists? :))
It's up to us whether we follow it diligently or not. If you have other things in mind that you'd like to try or do then by all means let me know.
FAQs:
1. Is it Free? - Yes, it's free. By free, I mean I don't ask charges for my services. All I ask of you is to be a good person to me with a sense of decency. I also would appreciate if you are able to reciprocate the energy and courtesies extended to you. Ang formal mo namang tao. I mean yeah, oo, medyo. Pero simula lang yan. Medyo gago naman din ako.
2. Is it "Free" Free? - Depende sa 'yo kung KKB or hindi. Give me an impression. Pero siyempre dahil ikaw ang dadayo dito, I have the obligation to give you a wonderful experience and there are things that I have to insist that I pay for.
3. Can I bring my date/friend(s)? - I can accommodate only 1 female stranger at a time. I find them a very comfortable company. Is it a date then? No, not quite. I guess more of an initiation if I could be friends with people? I dunno, I do this for fun. If we do become friends maybe you could tag along your friends too next time. Mabilis ma-drain social battery ko so pliz
4. Kidnapper ka po ba? - Hindi, pero walang sisihan kung kusa kang sasama sakin kahit tapos na yung tour ah?
5. Landi po ba ito? - I would neither confirm nor deny. I'm just here for a good time. Let's see? Then again I don't have expectations. I have long accepted that I am incapable of loving and being loved for I love thing else in the world but a better understanding of the human condition and the pursuit of contributing to the existing human knowledge.
About me:
- 27 years of age
- A resident of Manila
- A Master's student in Diliman
- An academic employee in Santolan
- I have a pair of poor eyes aided by spectacles
- 5"6 in height with a normal Body Mass Index

About you:
- Please be around my age but I could make exceptions
- Please see me as a person, not just some random free juice box up for grabs and be squeezed the contents out of
- Please be passionate about something, by passionate, not just a surface level but to an academic level. Ex: Yes alam ko ang galing at guwapo ng BTS pero paki-explain naman ang soft power politics ng South Korea using their pop culture
- Don't be shy around me, though magpakadugyot ka na lang around me kung sanay na ako sa presensya mo hahahaha
- Okay lang maarte pero please wag naman matapobre
- Okay lang din na spontaneous and adventurous
- May paa at kayang maglakad at mag-commute
- So I guess what I'm trying to say is taong makibagay anuman ang estado sa buhay?
- Bonus na siguro kung kyot ka ehehehe
PS. It's a street tour. Magdudungis ka talaga. Dala ka extra shirt, payong, at tubig.
