Back to the City We Go! My Actifit Report Card: November 22 2021

I'm back in the city again! Oh yeah. Been going to Batangas for my on the job training (OJT) in this new career. So far I think I am getting the hang of it. My body can't keep up that much though. Haha.

Anyway I've been going back and forth from there to here in Metro Manila (NCR). I finally remembered to use this Actifit app yesterday. 😂 Imagine all the wasted tokens. 😆 Oh well.

So yesterday while on the long way home, I took some pictures when I was on a tricycle going to town. Haven't been able to take pictures before since I always left late in the afternoon.

I sort of live on a mountain in Batangas but somehow the temperature is not even colder. Maybe it's just a hill then huh? I dunno. Is there an app to find out how high you are based on sea level or something? 😆 I haven't even checked yet. Hehe. Anyway here's a picture of the foresty roadside for you.

Actually I also work quite near the ocean. I love seeing the sea everyday even if I am not swimming in it. Haha. I am content to just look at how beautiful it is. I'm happy enough to regularly see the blue sky, plenty of trees, some birds and the water too. Ah life can be good when you're living near nature. 💕

Let me share a few pictures of the views at work. Since I haven't been able to post previous Actifit worthy posts while constantly traveling let me just share these now. Hehe.

Below you can see some parts of a mountain imho. 😅 And of course the other side has a different view too.

We live far from the town somewhere in Batangas. Am not going to mention where exactly yet until my OJT is done. Haha. All I can say is traveling there from here in Quezon City takes 3 to 5 hours depending on the traffic situation. That's why I was able to get more than 5,000 steps. Haha.

Actually I opened the Actifit app while in the middle of the long way to town. And then I got on a bus to the city. When I got to the bus station I rode the MRT and dropped off the closest station where I live. From there that's when I started walking for a kilometer or so to ride a jeepney.

While walking I was surprised to see some green lights dividing the roads. I love it. They put small lights beside the bike lanes. Awww. 💕 It reminded me of Christmas especially with all the vehicles and their red lights. 😂 I mean look at the view from the overpass (2nd pic).

Too bad my phone doesn't take better pictures. It looks way better in person and much greener too.

The first photo shows part of EDSA North bound, near GMA Kamuning MRT station. The second one shows East Avenue. On both lanes of the latter you can see the green bike lane lights. I was amazed and happy when I saw the green dots. Don't know when they installed those but am really happy and thankful to the government agencies that made it happen.

Too bad not all roads have such. Only selected ones have it. Motor vehicles are still kings of the road. Sad but at least now more people use bicycles as opposed to pre-pandemic times. It's the best thing that ever happened out of the Corona virus crisis.

When I got to my destination street I didn't see any of the bike lane lights. Perhaps those are only put on major or wide roads. Oh well.

So I rode a jeepney and a tricycle to finally get home again. Ah home sweet home. Tomorrow I will go back to Batangas again. 😆

Will try to use Actifit and see how many steps it would show once I get there. Hehe.

Anyway that's my travel and Actifit post of the day! How about you? Have you been commuting far lately as well?

XOXO,
