With the Enhanced Community Quarantine extended until April 30, we can’t return to our “normal” routines for the next couple of days. And while staying indoors is a privilege, we still hope for a little time outside. We will not be surprised if you already have an itinerary. These people, who are used to the fast-paced city life, share the places they would want to go first after the lockdown is over.
Barber shop, real talk. Ayoko na ng buhok ko. Gusto ko na magpakalbo.

Pupunta ako saC.U. Meal sa may Madison, Mandaluyong. Na-miss ko na ‘yung kimbap saka tteokbokki nila.

Walang halong plastikan, maliban sa kumain ng samgyupsal or flavored chicken wings, gusto ko pumunta ngchurch at magchoir. Nakaka-miss kasi maka-witness at kumanta sa mass lalo na puro livestream lang ngayon. Na-realize ko yung kahalagan ng actual mo ma-witness 'yung ganoon. Feeling ko nga baka maging emotional ako!

After lockdown, parang wala nang uwian sa bahay? I wanna go museum-hopping with my colleagues around Manila, starting with the National Museum, para naman matanggal yung mga kinain namin nung lockdown.

UP Town Center. Plan kasi talaga namin to go to UPTC to celebrate ‘yung birthday namin ng kapatid ko.

Sa department store. Kasi super need na namin mag-buy ng damit ni baby dahil masisikip na mga damit na nabili namin sa kanya. Legit. Pero kung Sunday, sa church siyempre para magpasalamat sa Lord.
- Jamaica, Teacher
Feeling ko homebody talaga ako tapos wala lang sa akin actually na one month ko nang ‘di nasisilayan ang outdoors. Pero baka sa mall. Gusto ko ng Doc Martens *laughs*.

After this quarantine, gym during weekdays kasi sobrang na-realize ko ‘yung worth ng memberships ko. Mag-aaya ako mag-inuman ng Friday night.
- Chrislyn, Credit and Risk Officer
I want to visit a museum, walk around the vintage beauty of Intramuros, drink coffee. Ang tagal ko na rin hindi nakakapunta ng Manila. Parang magandang puntahan after ECQ.

We know you have that place that you miss the most. But in the meantime, let’s stay inside our homes and hope better days will come. Soon.
