I was initially locked in a property along the same street we currently live in, but similarly it is an old building and way too much musty! I thought I couldn\u2019t get away from Salcedo (I don\u2019t even go to Salcedo market anymore because of egregious prices, and lack of variety) until we viewed another property along Malugay street. It is years way more modern than what we previously viewed.. and it offers more amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I\u2019m sad to leave our current place, it doesn\u2019t make us happy anymore in terms of space. We accumulated so much stuff over the past three years that the lack of storage becomes an issue. Plus, laundry is a huge concern for us because we always drive to Shine every Saturday just to do it for the past three years. The new place also offers a decent gym with better and newer equipment than our current building offers so it will save me a ton from gym membership. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can\u2019t wait to move and put up a decent Christmas tree on this spot:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"769\" src=\"https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1-1024x769.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1-1024x769.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1-1536x1153.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/keiyt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/img_0609-1.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m pretty surprised October 31 is a holiday in the Philippines.
