I can’t explain how surreal it was as right around the corner are night clubs with ex-pats drinking loudly. Out of sight, yet the sounds not matching the singular experience i had in that mini pit-stop temple…a zone to myself for just a moment.

Every ally has a view. Down toward a tapering window of light, possibly a lit street or building face in the far off distance. Up to endless flights of stairs ending where the jungle bleeds into homes and streets with roots hanging overhead.
Thes… — Every ally has a view. Down toward a tapering window of light, possibly a lit street or building face in the far off distance. Up to endless flights of stairs ending where the jungle bleeds into homes and streets with roots hanging overhead.

These are the obvious ends to every ally and the question of shall I walk up? or down? But when we look toward the sky an entirely new perspective emerges. The time is late, however the sky is bright? It illuminates to frame other worldly buildings within these thin slices of life giving light to contrast. My feet are in the past, yet my eyes take in future. Blinking to adjust to this reality, it become even less real. A stray cat tries to challenge me, it seems I’m in his territory here.

I cannot even count how many stairs I walk every time I step out side here. It’s a normal day to walk 200+ steps. No gym pass necessary!

We live near the elbow. The elbow is a really cool place. (Photo taken from a suspended foot tower bridge, elevator…platform thing +25.5M above elbow).

midnight milk tea, needed a walk found a cafe. Silly how a cuppa something hot will warm the soul.

"A feral cat. A feral cat is a descendant of a domesticated cat that has returned to the wild." So be it, this city is the wild.

“air conditioning units humming, men organizing, steam releasing, wheels pulling, metal carts crossing, windows opening and closing, airplanes hovering; music of the night”
