Anyone ever been? I'm thinking of meeting a friend there soon - He's of Filipino heritage and his parents retired there but he's never been. I'd probably spend a month or so in Manilla if I go.
From what I read online, most people say they found it dirty, polluted, traffic's horrible, etc... but I do tend to personally prefer megalopolis'. I love cities like Sao Paulo, Seoul, Bangkok, Taipei, Tokyo, etc... If I don't go to Manila, I'll probably go back to Sao Paulo.
But I'm also curious how things are there at the moment with Corona. So for anyone who's been to Manilla, how did you find it? Thoughts on the food, skating, people, etc...?
