Well that a good one, personal I feel more safe here than I do in my own country, but saying that I have to add that my
mother had a sign above her back door of her house saying, Fools rush in where angles fear to tread
Best to take your safety serious and personal, for me when Im in the city it not uncommon for my wallet to be in my front pocket
This is a country of the super rich and the super poor, for you they see you as a walking bank, you eather have a dollar or a euro on you head they dont know which but they see you this way
I never heard of one of our guess being robed in travel, but I have heard of the local people being robed when they had used a jeepney.I heard of locals
robed in taxies, when they were by them selfs , I heard of taxies robed by locals.
Best to travel in pairs, if your that adventures at heart , watch out for pick pockets . reminder as a guess here you will most likely have to ask
for help from the locals, if they seem overly friendly this may be the very shark that will eat you.
