I remember they have a telephone thing. Fun fact, if you have two receivers, you can like use the other one to listen in and spy on phone calls.
Is that a landline? We have that in the UK, I used to do that on my mum. Got in trouble quickly when she heard me laughing over the line 🤣
The distance between a dilapidated city slum and a modern-looking shopping mall is like 20 minutes away. Like. You walk 20 minutes, and its like you time travelled. So bizzare when I recall the memories.
20 minutes? I saw some that were right next to each other. I came out of a metro station and was in a pomegranate farm, across the road were newly built apartments.
What I found odd is that their TV provider was their ISP. The TV must have been IPTV and they were allowed to use the internet, by plugging a router into the TV box which had a modem. In the UK it’s generally the other way around, your ISP is your TV provider also.
Where I stayed had a crapper toilet. I don’t think that was the norm, though.

9 minute walk actually. From my apartment area to the main road where there are malls with KFC, Mcdonalds, etc…
But yea… having no phones and your mind is bored and wandering and thinking and so you look at things around you… that tends to slow your perception of time, it felt like a half hour walk lol. Memories are fuzzy.
Btw, we lived right next to a mountain, so like I remember just taking walks there with my dad.
Oh yea… that explains all the fucking mosquitos… like… imagine being right next to a mountain… its moist af… lol
