Workspace With a View – Coding in Manila

In contrast to other times Ive done the ludumdare Im now working from Manila (in the Philippines). It has several downsides, to start with the internet here isn’t the best one, and I only got my 13″ laptop to code on. And to make things worse, the screen is half-broken, it got a 3-4cm wide line in the middle which flickers or displays a solid gray color so have to squeeze in all relevant info in half the screen either to the right or left :(

On the other hand, Manila has some advantages, for example the scenic view from where Im writing this:

A view from the outdoor area on the 31st floor of the building where I’ve got my apartment. Nice to look at, even if its a bit hot outside right now..

I wonder if there’s any other entrants from the Philippines/Manila?

Not in the Philippines, but I’m a Canadian-born Filipino. Only had the opportunity to visit family there a few times.
