I can't help but compare Manila and KL. Well, because family and friends keep asking me how is KL compared to Manila.
My usual answer is "KL is almost the same as Manila". And it is. I feel like I am just in Makati or Ortigas. The Malays look like Filipinos too (we are often mistaken as Malays). But of course there are differences too.
They do have a nice transportation system making it easy to commute. And I feel like the traffic here in Manila is horrendous compared to KL. Having said that, I still love Manila,lol.
It is still cheaper to live here. Supermarkets are bigger. I can find everything I want in one supermarket. What I absolutely miss when I am in KL are the promotional products available in supermarkets. I am a sucker for that, lol. In SM alone, you'd get a lot of that.
We're going back to KL on Sunday. And I am missing Manila already. Sigh. I hope more budget airlines will sprout so that airfares go down and we can go home every week, hahaha!
