For all practical purposes I live on a modest street in Manila. Life is much simpler there for sure.

It's not a compound. No turrets, no armor. Not a bad place to be in a time of social breakdown but that's not the design.

Life there is surely at a lower standard of living but there's much less conflict between people there and they are much more polite and respectful than many of the people that I run into here in the US.

As for what I wish for......fair enough. I'll consider it very carefully.
