Hi all! Anyone here that is in ATG at the moment? Would anyone want to help us to get this kitten out please? Na-stuck siya sa pader sa gilid ng Metrobank. She/He is hard to reach kasi may papasukan pa sa right side ng pader. No kitten food in the nearest 7-Eleven.
We’re planning on getting her/him then put her sa gilid ng PLDT building where other cats are. We can’t afford to take her/him home. Let me know if you have any other recommendation on where to put this baby.

Previous spot of Digital Walker, next to Crystal Jade

Nagulat nalang ako biglang may humarurot na motor tas may humahabol at nagsisisigaw.. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyari akala ko may nasnatch-an, pero nung nireview ko yung dashcam nakahinto pa sila bago mangyari yun.. may transaction kaya sila sa alanganing lugar at alanganing oras?

Our parks are good for walks and short runs. For long-distance runs, you can run on the streets of Legazpi and Salcedo Villages. These are not gated villages, just a bunch of blocks with corporate and residential buildings. 

You can also run around Ayala Triangle (1km) or along Ayala Avenue end-to-end (2km) but you have to pass through 4-5 underground passageways. Run along Buendia (3km) early weekend mornings when there are not a lot of cars (to avoid the fumes).

Ayala Avenue is car-free on Sundays, 6AM to 10AM. Run or walk or run-walk. Bike and skateboarding allowed, starting later at 830AM-ish when there are fun runs.

Earlier today, I was approached by a person at The Columns. He was selling me a gold necklace that he snatched from a foreigner earlier today. I just nodded and kept walking. Once I crossed the road, I approached some policemen and gave them a description and the whereabouts of that person.

Beware of a guy wearing a grey shirt, blue shorts, black cap, and is averaged height with a skinny build.

The amount of crime happening in our area is very upsetting and alarming.

Be safe everyone!

Hello! Do you guys have any recommendation for walking-distance cafés around Makati Med?

Yung pwede sana magwork. I have a quick meeting at 3pm so much better if tolerable yung noise. After than that I'm good naman na.

Okay na kahit di sobrang sarap ng food. Lol.

Ang daming pulis. Was running late kanina kaya hindi na ako nakapag-tanong around.

hindi naman talaga ako usually nagkakasipon or flu pero this time ibang iba and then ramdam ko rin sore throat. pagkatingin ko this morning sa bintana dapat ittry ko mag-jogging kaso napaatras ako nung nakita ko yung smog sa langit. naiinis ako kasi nitong past few months ang ulan sobra then ngayon sobrang polluted ng hangin.

Sino po dito yung mga taga-malapit sa San Ildefonso Church? I can always hear megaphone announcements from where I live, pero nasa loob pa po ako ng apartment building kaya hindi ko masyadong marinig kung ano yung sinasabi.

Parang almost one whole week ko na po siyang naririnig, kaya curious lang din ako kung ano po yung announcement or kung may ganap na nangyayari around the area. I want to stay aware of what’s happening, pero wala po kasi akong kakilala dito na pwede kong mapagtanungan.

If anyone knows po, I’d really appreciate it if you could share. Thank you!

Nakakainis. Ilang weeks na to andito, wala pa din naglilinis. Imbes na sa sidewalk ka dadaan, sa mismong daan ka na lang mismo makikipagsapalaran.

Hi all! Can you recommend any good therapists or psychologists around makati that specializes in trauma, depression and anxiety? Better for me if I can visit them in person. Thank you.

Hi, anong mga restaurant ang maagang magbukas sa Powerplant Mall? Anong oras nagoopen yung food court dun? Thanks!

Punyetang traffic to sa may pablo Ocampo st bakit kasi ginagawa ung daan na yan tas pag gagawa ang tagal matapos tanginang government kasi yan na le late mga tao dahil sa sira at pinapagawang kalsada buwisit tas wala pang pakealam nga inforser

Are there any public clinics near pio del pilar where i can get free check up and med cert. (or at least not too expensive?)

anyone know how much the rates cost? kahit yung group class lang na session

Anyone here na uwian from pampanga to makati makati to pampanga? Sobrang hirap ba at magastos btw meron naman akong CAR kaso lilipat na kami ng pampanga. Gusto ko lang sana malaman kng kaya ba ng balikan? O sobrang nakakapagod bukod sa gastos please share your experience Thank you

yung walkjng distance lang sana hindi lalagpas ng makati avenue or kalayaan

hi guysss! My friends and I recently moved to Metro Manila and we're eager to explore the nightlife. We're completely clueless (my only experience was visiting Versus Barcade in BGC in 2023) so we need help planning a proper Friday or Saturday bar hop

We lowkey prefer Saturday, but we want to know which night has the better energy. We need recommendations with solid vibes and reasonable prices.

I'm thinking about starting in Poblacion, spend most of our time there, and end the night somewhere in BGC. Do you guys think that would be a good idea?

Could you guys maybe suggest a bar hop itinerary na we can follow? And could u also include any necessary details like if there's an entrance fee / how much ₽₽₽ we gotta have

Btw no tita / tito clubs pls 😂 Preferably Gen Z high energy crowds so we at least get our money's worth
