    I live in a third world country, but I am not from here and because of that I earn a pretty good wage compared to the local population.

    The other night, I was walking home with my wife and it felt really cyberpunk at night.

    On the street there were a bunch of little stalls and shops selling second hand clothes, or cheap quality phone cases and chargers.

    In the distance there were these huge condo buildings and behind us were the skyscrapers of the business district.

    The streets were filled with people walking to and from their destination as they don’t have cars, or can’t book a ride on their phone. The trails have huge lines and are packed. Packed so dense that I was once worried my wife couldn’t breath.
