Why did the chicken cross the road?

Because it's and she's running away from overly serious discussions.

But, since you're not a chicken, you might want to look into Allen Gumiran's serious take on the role of comedy.

It's no joke. We're really doing this. Link's in the bio.

In case you're wandering and wondering, here are the countries frequently recommended for women who want to travel alone.

In an ideal world, women should be able to go wherever they want alone or with company, but there are only a few that are successfully making that ideal a reality.

We can say that we’ve returned but it really feels more like we’ve arrived.

THUS, we have this. The new phase of our storytelling.
From the team that put together the online publication, Manileno, Thus is as its name suggests: a result of where we were, are and hope to be. It takes a look at the lives relevant to Filipino readers and we explore the possibilities for progress that stem from such information. We’re fans of context, well-founded conclusions and commas that continue otherwise terse sentences. We collect hard-earned facts and heart-wrought fiction to give a compelling yet truthful picture of where we stand.

If there’s more to it, we’re here for it. And this is our story THUS far.
