About
Who writes this
I arrived in Manila in late September 2026.
I write down every price I pay here: the rent, the rides, the food, the laundry, the haircut. Each one gets a number and a date, and the receipt when I kept the receipt.
The pages collect what I have so far. Some of it is arithmetic on past numbers, some of it is what I am trying right now, and some of it is still a question I have not answered. I am not advising anyone to do what I did.
