Piazza di Duomo at night

In Milan, as long as you’re at the Piazza Duomo and Galleria, where there are many police patrols, you are safe.  Pero ingat pa rin, maraming street vendors and mandurukut.

There’s a feeling of joy when I could walk around at night even close to midnight safely.

Ang sarap mamasyal, the temperature was around 18 – 20 degrees.

I sat down at the Duomo’s steps.  Never engage in eye contact with anyone, especially male or else you could be targeted. Mapi-pick-up ka. And never never SMILE at anyone. Kunwari you’re oblivious to your surroundings. Be alert, aware, look at people pero yung hindi halata.

There were two guys seated also at the church’s steps who kept on looking at me, waiting for some signals, ako naman kunwari hindi ko sila nakikita, at naka simangot ako to the max, dapat mukhang busangot. I’ve learned my lesson. Daming beses na ako muntik ma pick up. Ganda ko pa naman (20 years ago).

My kids went to buy gelato from GROM. They also enjoyed walking, ang liwanag ng buwan at ang sarap ng panahon.

One million Euro a month is needed for the restoration and maintenance of the Duomo or Cathedral of Milan. I was dismayed when I saw a giant billboard on the right side of the building, but according to the tour guide, the church badly needed funds to keep the 600 year old structure stronger for the next hundreds more years.

Ako, antok na so I went ahead to the room. Hotel Straf is conveniently located. Nothing beats their location. The rooms are just small and the decors are industrial.

The two came back with long stemmed roses. Naawa dun sa tindero, Euro 5.

  1. The mayor of Rome is also looking for sponsors to maintain the Coliseum and Trevi Fountain. He’s considering asking fashion and luxury brands but promised to not post advertisements on the structures.
